FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Gola Equipe II is designed as a casual lifestyle trainer and does not provide the cushioning or support necessary for running.
How do I clean the white leather?
Wipe the surface with a damp, soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the leather.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, they feature a standard fit, but it is recommended to order your usual UK shoe size.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert orthotics if required.
What should I wear with these?
They pair perfectly with denim, chinos, or casual shorts for a classic terrace-style look.
Are the soles non-marking?
The gum cup soles are generally suitable for indoor wear, but always check surface requirements in specific gym or court settings.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface scuffing
Use a specialized leather eraser or a small amount of leather conditioner to buff out light scuffs.
Laces becoming loose during wear
Double knot the laces or replace them with higher-friction cotton laces if necessary.
Creasing at the toe box
This is natural for leather footwear; use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; simply adjust the laces to your desired tension for your foot width. To maintain the condition of the white leather, it is recommended to use a leather-safe cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe away dirt immediately after use. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the leather and the integrity of the cup sole stitching. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing over time.
