Full details
Designed for adult women seeking a blend of sophistication and everyday utility, these Gabor trainers provide exceptional comfort through a signature G-width fit and a supportive 15 mm wedge sole. While the velvet material offers a premium aesthetic suitable for casual outings, users should be aware that the delicate fabric requires more careful maintenance than standard leather alternatives to keep the pristine white finish looking its best.

FAQs
Can I wash these in a machine?
No, machine washing will permanently damage the velvet material and the structure of the shoe.
What does G-width mean?
G-width is a standard designation for a slightly wider fit, providing more volume across the forefoot area.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the provided leather insole is removable, making these trainers compatible with many custom orthotic devices.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, velvet is porous and should be kept away from heavy rain or water splashes.
How do I keep the white velvet looking clean?
Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and use a gentle brush to keep the surface free of debris.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or lint on the velvet surface
Use a dedicated soft-bristled garment brush and stroke gently in one direction.
Insole becomes damp or compressed
Remove the insole from the shoe to allow it to air-dry completely at room temperature.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before wearing your Gabor trainers, consider applying a specialized fabric protector spray suitable for velvet to create a barrier against dirt and light moisture. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust and debris, always brushing in the direction of the velvet nap. If the insole needs refreshing, simply lift it out carefully; the removable nature of the insole also makes these shoes compatible with most aftermarket arch-support inserts if you need further personalization.
