FAQs
Can I replace the insoles with my own?
Yes, these trainers feature a removable insole, making them compatible with most standard orthotic inserts.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and affect the shoe's structure. Stick to manual cleaning with a brush.
How do I maintain the suede finish?
Use a suede brush regularly to remove surface dust and apply a water-repellent spray designed specifically for suede footwear.
Are these trainers suitable for long walks?
Yes, the cushioned sole is specifically designed to provide support for walking long distances without fatigue.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the brown color from fading over time.
Troubleshooting
Insole feels tight with orthotics
Ensure the original factory insole is fully removed before inserting your custom orthotic.
Visible scuff marks on the suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift the fibers and remove surface marks.
Shoes becoming stained from water
Allow the suede to dry completely, then use a suede brush to restore the nap; consider re-applying a water-repellent spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor trainers remain in peak condition, apply a suede-specific protective spray before your first wear to create a barrier against moisture and surface dirt. Since the footbed is removable, you can easily swap the factory insole for your own custom orthotics if necessary; simply lift the edge of the insole carefully from the heel. To clean, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove dried mud or dust. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the material from becoming brittle.
