FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing conventions for men's footwear.
Can I use these for running?
No, these are fashion-focused lifestyle trainers designed for casual walking and daily wear, not for athletic training or running.
How do I keep the white leather clean?
Wipe them down regularly with a damp cloth and use leather-specific cleaning products to avoid discoloration.
Does the leather require conditioning?
Periodically applying a light leather conditioner will help keep the material supple and prevent drying or cracking.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather, which offers a balance between durability and a premium aesthetic.
Are the insoles removable?
While the shoes feature a comfort cushioned insole, they are intended to be worn as-is for maximum support.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the leather retain its shape and smooth out minor creases.
Surface scuffs on white leather
Gently rub with a soft eraser or use a dedicated leather cleaning wipe to lift surface-level marks.
Laces becoming loose
Ensure the lace-to-toe system is tightened evenly from the bottom up to secure the midfoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gola Equipe II Trainers maintain their condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather after daily use. For deeper cleaning, utilize a leather-safe cleaner.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a leather-specific water and stain repellent spray will help protect the white finish from unexpected spills or rain.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or yellowing of the sole.
- Maintenance: Replace laces if they show signs of fraying and use shoe trees to maintain the structural integrity of the silhouette when not in use.
