FAQs

What is the heel height of the Gabor Maddy shoes?

The heel height is 3.5cm, providing a comfortable lift without compromising stability.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

These shoes feature a UK C+ Standard width fitting, which corresponds to a Gabor F fitting. This is generally considered a standard to slightly wider fit.

Can I remove the insoles to use my own orthotics?

No, the insoles are not removable in the Gabor Maddy model, which may limit the accommodation of custom orthotics.

What material are the shoes made of?

The upper and lining are made from premium leather, and the sole is made from a durable synthetic material.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for beige or tan leather. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Is the ankle strap adjustable?

The ankle strap is elasticated, designed to provide a flexible and secure fit without traditional adjustment buckles.

What occasions are these shoes best suited for?

These shoes are versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, including casual outings, office wear, daytime events, and relaxed evening gatherings.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight on arrival

Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot with wear. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. Avoid exposing them to excessive moisture during this process.

Elasticated strap feels loose or too tight

The elasticated strap is designed to provide a snug fit. If it feels consistently too loose, it may indicate an improper fit. If it feels too tight, wear may eventually loosen it slightly, but consult with a shoe professional if discomfort persists.

Leather shows minor scuffs or marks

Use a good quality leather conditioner and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Slight discoloration of the leather

Ensure the shoes have not been exposed to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh cleaning agents. Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the shoe's color and material.
