FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?
While they are comfortable for daily wear and city walking, they are designed as lifestyle trainers and are not substitutes for dedicated athletic or hiking footwear.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing will ruin the suede finish and the internal structure. Spot clean only with appropriate suede cleaning tools.
What does the D-fit mean?
The D-fit is Gabor's designation for a slightly wider-than-average fit, offering more room in the forefoot area.
Can I replace the original insoles with my own?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making them compatible with most third-party or custom-molded orthotic inserts.
Does the 4.5cm heel make them difficult to balance?
No, the heel is integrated into a stable trainer platform, providing a balanced base that promotes better posture than a flat sole.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colour of the suede over time.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears slightly discoloured or dusty
Use a soft suede-specific brush to gently lift the nap of the material, which restores the even look of the suede.
Insoles feel loose or shift during wear
Ensure the insoles are fully pressed into the base of the shoe, aligning the heel contour with the back of the trainer.
Shoe feels too tight over the top of the foot
Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets and work your way up to distribute the tension more evenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gabor Dahma trainers, begin by applying a protective suede spray before the first wear to guard against water and dirt. The laces should be adjusted to a secure tension that holds the heel in place without putting undue pressure on the instep. If you choose to use custom insoles, remove the factory-provided inserts first to ensure the proper volume inside the shoe. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede eraser for minor marks. Avoid machine washing or submerging the trainers, as this can damage the suede texture and compromise the structural integrity of the heel.
