FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
These trainers are designed with a standard width fit (Gabor F). If you have wider feet, the removable insole might offer some adjustment, but they may not be the most comfortable option.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the trainers feature removable insoles, making them compatible with most standard custom orthotics or alternative insoles for added support and comfort.
How high is the heel on these trainers?
The trainers have a heel height of 5cm.
What materials 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.
How should I clean the suede sections?
For suede, use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and always test in an inconspicuous area first. Protecting with a suede spray is recommended.
What is the 'Best Fitting Technology'?
Gabor's 'Best Fitting Technology' focuses on providing enhanced comfort and fit, often incorporating features like a broader toe box and a more cushioned sole, adapted for the specific design of the shoe.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The product description does not specify waterproofing. Suede is not inherently waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is advisable to treat them with a water-repellent spray suitable for suede.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose or difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly. Re-tie the laces, pulling firmly to create a snug fit. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones.
Discomfort in the heel area
Check if the padded collar is rubbing. Ensure the shoe is laced correctly to hold the heel in place. If the discomfort persists, consider if the 5cm heel height is suitable for your preference.
Suede material looks dull or marked
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow instructions carefully. Applying a suede protector spray can help prevent future marks.
