Product Information
Full details
The Gabor Maddy Slingback Court Shoe is designed for adult women seeking a stylish yet comfortable heel for various occasions. Its key benefit is the combination of a chic slingback design with an elasticated ankle strap for a secure and adaptable fit, offering elegance without compromising on wearability. A potential consideration is its C+ (Gabor F) width fitting, which is standard but may not suit extremely wide feet. This sandal features a soft leather upper and lining, a stable block heel, and a durable synthetic sole.

Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness in new leather
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.
Ankle strap feels loose
Ensure the elasticated strap is sitting comfortably. The elastic is designed to provide a secure, adaptive fit; if it feels excessively loose, check for any manufacturing defects.
Scuff marks on leather
Use a leather cleaner and conditioner. For minor scuffs, a color-matched polish can help restore the appearance.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The synthetic sole provides traction, but if you experience slipping, consider a rubber sole protector application by a cobbler for added grip, especially in wet conditions.
