Full details

The Gabor Roller trainers are designed for adult females seeking a stylish and comfortable footwear option for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in their versatile design and supportive construction, making them suitable for busy days. A potential caveat is the standard (Gabor F) width fit, which may not suit wider feet. These trainers feature a modern aesthetic with a chunky yet lightweight sole, offering excellent cushioning and support, combined with a secure lace-up fit and premium leather/suede materials.

FAQs

What material are the Gabor Roller trainers made from?

The upper is a combination of leather and suede. The lining and sole are made from manmade materials.

Can I wear these trainers if I have wide feet?

These trainers have a standard Gabor F width fit, which is designed for average-width feet. They may not be comfortable for individuals with significantly wide feet.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush to clean off dirt and restore the texture. For stains, a dedicated suede cleaner is recommended. Avoid using water directly on suede.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are removable. This allows you to insert your own custom orthotics or alternative insoles for added comfort and support.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The heel height is approximately 5cm.

What type of fastening do these trainers have?

They feature a lace-up fastening, allowing for an adjustable and secure fit.

Are these trainers suitable for formal occasions?

The Gabor Roller trainers are primarily designed for off-duty and casual wear. While their stylish design can complement some laid-back tailoring, they are not intended for formal occasions.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone frequently.

Ensure you are tying a secure double knot. Consider replacing the laces with ones that have better grip, or try a different lacing technique.

Foot feels too narrow.

Loosen the laces considerably and ensure the tongue is centered. If the issue persists, the standard width may not be suitable for your foot shape.

Suede appears matted or dirty.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialist leather and suede cleaner.

Discomfort after extended wear.

Ensure laces are not too tight. Try removing the insole and wearing with your own custom orthotic or a thinner insole, or ensure the padded collar is not causing pressure.
