Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor Lourdes boots remain in excellent condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Ensure you have selected the correct UK size and note the C+ width fitting for your foot shape. Use a long shoehorn when first breaking them in to protect the heel counter.
- Suede Care: Because the boots are made of suede, keep them away from excessive water. Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dust and lift the nap of the material.
- Stain Management: For light marks, use a dedicated suede eraser. Avoid using household soaps or detergents as these can permanently stain or damage the leather texture.
- Insole Maintenance: Periodically remove the insoles to allow the interior of the boot to air out, and clean the insoles separately with a damp cloth if necessary.
