FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the lace-up feature combined with the supple suede material allows for a degree of width adjustment, making them quite accommodating.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, do not machine wash these trainers as the water and agitation can damage the suede leather and the structure of the shoe.
What is the best way to clean mud off the suede?
Allow the mud to dry completely, then gently brush it off with a dry suede brush. Use a suede eraser for any residual marks.
Do I need to break these in?
While the ergonomic design provides comfort immediately, like most high-quality shoes, they will become even more comfortable as the leather adapts to your foot shape after a few wears.
Can I replace the insoles?
The trainers feature a comfortable built-in footbed; however, if you require custom orthotics, you may be able to insert them if they are slim-profile.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks when opening/closing
Apply a small amount of clear beeswax or a graphite pencil tip to the zip teeth to improve smooth movement.
Suede appears dull or matted
Gently use a suede brush in a circular motion to lift the fibers and restore the original texture.
Laces constantly coming loose
Double-knot the laces or replace them with high-quality cotton laces that provide better friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor trainers remain in optimal condition, perform an initial setup by loosening the laces to your desired tension before using the zip for daily operation. Since the upper is made of premium suede, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first use. Clean these shoes regularly using a soft-bristled suede brush to lift dirt and maintain the nap of the material. Avoid saturating the suede with water; instead, use specialized suede cleaning foam for any stubborn stains. Keep them away from direct heat sources when drying to prevent the material from hardening.
