FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, they are made from suede, which is porous. While a protector spray helps repel light splashes, they are not intended for heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Gabor Abbey boots feature removable insoles, making them compatible with most custom orthotic inserts.
What does the C+ width fitting mean?
It is Gabor's standard width fitting, designed to provide a balance of snugness and room at the ball of the foot.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and restore grip.
Are the boots true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for a C+ width, though suede may stretch slightly over time to fit your foot shape.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping the boots
Ensure no fabric or debris is trapped in the zip track and verify that your socks are not causing excessive bulk inside the boot.
Suede showing water marks
Use a specialized suede cleaner and a soft brush to gently buff the affected area once dry; avoid using plain water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your suede boots, it is recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray before the first wear to guard against moisture and dirt. If the boots get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen. To keep the suede nap looking fresh, use a dedicated suede brush periodically to remove dust and lift the fibres. Since the insoles are removable, you can easily clean or replace them to maintain foot hygiene and comfort over time.
