FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Gola Viper is a lifestyle trainer designed for walking and casual daily use, not for high-impact sports or running.
How do I clean the white accents?
You can clean the white details using a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, taking care not to let the soap soak into the suede.
Does the sizing run true?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK adult sizing, though it is recommended to ensure your specific foot measurements align with the Gola size guide.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
We strongly advise against machine washing as it can destroy the texture of the suede and weaken the adhesives used in the construction.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
Suede is absorbent and can be damaged by water. It is best to avoid wearing these in heavy rain unless treated with a high-quality protective spray.
Do these come with extra laces?
The trainers come with standard laces matching the design; spare laces are not included as a standard accessory.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to restore the nap and lift away surface debris.
Water spots on the material
Gently dab with a slightly damp cloth over the entire area rather than just the spot, then let dry completely.
Fit feels too loose
Re-lace the shoes using a 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your Gola Vipers is straightforward: ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as the fit should be snug but not restrictive. To keep your suede trainers in top condition, we recommend the following:
- Protective Spray: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent before your first wear to create a protective barrier.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each use.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Moisture: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels and let them air dry naturally; never use a heater, as direct heat can warp or shrink the material.
