Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?
While they feature a comfortable 10 mm heel and flexible sole, they are designed as lifestyle shoes rather than athletic walking shoes.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Velvet is a delicate material that can be easily damaged or stained by water.
How do I care for the fleece lining?
The interior should be kept dry. If it gets damp, stuff the shoes with paper and let them air dry away from heat sources.
Do these pumps provide arch support?
They offer a comfortable, cushioned footbed, but they do not feature specialized orthotic arch support.
Is the material real velvet?
Yes, the product features a high-quality velvet finish for a luxurious feel.
Troubleshooting
Velvet nap appears flattened
Use a specialized velvet brush or steam the material gently from a distance to lift the fibers.
Shoe feels too snug
Ensure you are wearing appropriate hosiery; if the fit is still tight, have them professionally stretched at a cobbler.
Sole is losing traction
Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove buildup that may be making the surface slick.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor Samtchev pumps last, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: The elasticated collar ensures a snug fit. If you find the shoe feels too tight, wear them indoors for short periods with thin socks to gently stretch the material before all-day wear.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust or light debris from the velvet surface. Always brush in the direction of the nap.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. Use shoe trees or crumpled tissue paper to maintain the shoe's shape.
- Protection: Consider using a water-repellent spray designed specifically for velvet or delicate textiles to help protect against minor spills.
