FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Gola Torpedo is designed as a fashion trainer for casual use and lacks the support required for running.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can permanently damage the suede material and affect the gum sole glue.

What is the best way to waterproof them?

Apply a light, even coat of a high-quality suede protector spray and let it dry completely before wearing.

Do these come in different colors?

Yes, the Torpedo series is available in several variations including black, green, and grey combinations.

How should I store my Gola trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading.

Troubleshooting

Suede surface looks matted or dusty

Use a soft suede brush to gently buff the surface in one direction to restore the nap.

Visible dirt stains on the upper

Use a specialized suede eraser or a light cleaning foam designed for suede materials.

Trainer feels tight during initial wear

Suede is a natural material that will soften and mold to your foot shape after a few wears.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic 1980s retro style
  • Soft and flexible suede material
  • Durable gum sole construction
  • Versatile design suitable for casual outfits

Cons

  • Suede requires protection from rain and mud
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance
  • Limited water resistance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are made from suede, they should be treated with a suede-specific water repellent spray before first use to prevent staining and water damage. To maintain their appearance, clean them regularly using a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and debris. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or shrink. Ensure you check the sizing guide to confirm your UK adult foot size, as suede materials may stretch slightly over time to fit the contour of your foot.
