FAQs
Are these Gola Sprinter trainers waterproof?
No, they are made primarily of suede and textile, which are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the suede and the adhesive used in the sole. Always clean them by hand.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
They feature a flat-sole design which offers limited arch support. If you require extra support, you may wish to use a slim orthotic insole.
What is the primary material used?
The main exterior is constructed from quality suede, complemented by a durable EVA and rubber sole.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
These trainers are sized based on standard UK adult foot measurements. Refer to your typical size in similar casual trainers.
Troubleshooting
The suede is showing water spots
Allow the suede to dry naturally away from heat sources, then use a suede brush to gently lift the nap back to its original texture.
Laces constantly coming undone
Consider a double knot or replacing with flat cotton laces that provide higher friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gola Sprinter trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes fit according to standard UK sizing. Ensure you verify your size before ordering as the suede construction has minimal stretch.
- Initial Setup: Before the first wear, consider applying a suede-specific protective spray to repel water and prevent stains.
- Cleaning: To clean the suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt. For the rubber sole, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away any debris.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the blue colorway over time.
