FAQs
What does the F-width fitting mean?
The F-width is Gabor's standard width fitting, designed to fit the average foot comfortably.
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the 30 mm heel and flexible sole are specifically engineered to provide comfort for extended periods.
How do I care for the leather lining?
Keep the interior clean and dry. Avoid wearing the same pair every single day to allow the leather to breathe and air out moisture.
Does the sling back strap contain metal parts?
The strap features an elasticated insert for comfort, which is typically encased in leather for a seamless finish.
Are these heels true to size?
Gabor footwear generally follows standard UK sizing; however, individual fit may vary based on personal preference.
Can I use these shoes in rainy weather?
While the rubber sole provides good traction, these are leather shoes and should be treated with a waterproof spray to protect them from light rain.
Troubleshooting
Heel strap feels too loose while walking
Ensure the elasticated back is sitting securely at the heel notch; if it persists, use a thin silicone heel grip insert.
Leather looks dull after repeated wear
Apply a small amount of neutral leather conditioner or cream and buff gently with a soft cloth to restore the shine.
Minor scuffs on the leather surface
Use a color-matched leather polish or a specialized leather eraser for light surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These heels are ready to wear immediately out of the box. To maintain the leather's appearance and lifespan, apply a high-quality leather protector spray before the first use to guard against moisture and dirt. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources such as radiators, which can cause the leather to stiffen. To clean the upper, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust, and occasionally apply a neutral leather cream to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
