Product Information
Full details
The Gabor Kea trainers are designed for adult women seeking a stylish yet comfortable slip-on footwear option. Their primary benefit is the blend of a durable, supportive sole with sustainable features like a recycled footbed, making them ideal for all-day wear. A potential caveat is that they are a specific width fitting (UK D Wider), which may not suit all foot shapes. Key features include a leather upper, PU sole, 4cm heel height, slip-on design, and removable insoles.

FAQs
What material is the Gabor Kea trainer made of?
The upper is made of leather, the lining is micro, and the sole is made of PU (Polyurethane).
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the Gabor Kea trainers feature a UK D Wider Fit (Gabor G) which is designed to be wider than standard fittings.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the trainers come with removable insoles, allowing you to insert your own orthotics or replace them if needed.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is approximately 4cm.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For best results, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner, and allow to air dry.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The product information does not specify waterproof properties. Leather can be treated for water resistance, but they are not inherently waterproof.
What is the benefit of the recycled footbed?
The recycled footbed enhances comfort while contributing to sustainability efforts.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight
As the trainers are a UK D Wider fit, they should accommodate wider feet. If they still feel tight, ensure the removable insole is correctly positioned. Leather will also naturally stretch slightly with wear.
Difficulty slipping feet in
Ensure the heel area is free of obstruction and that the foot is slid in smoothly. The slip-on design may require a brief adjustment period.
Insole feels uncomfortable or misplaced
Remove the insole and reinsert it, ensuring it lies flat and correctly within the shoe. If personal orthotics are preferred, ensure they fit the space of the original insole.
Leather appears dry or scuffed
Apply a good quality leather conditioner to nourish the material. For scuffs, try a matching color leather polish or cream to restore the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Gabor Kea trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Simply remove them from the packaging. If you wish to use your own orthotics or require a different insole, the existing removable footbed can be easily taken out.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for women and are particularly suited for those with a UK D Wider fit. They pair well with a variety of casual and smart-casual outfits, including jeans, trousers, skirts, and dresses.
Care:
- Leather Upper: Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or to protect the leather, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Sole: Wipe the PU sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water.
- Insoles: The removable insoles can be gently hand-washed with mild soap and water and left to air dry completely. Ensure they are fully dry before reinserting to prevent odor or mildew.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain their shape and condition.
