FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not naturally waterproof. We recommend using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, suede should never be machine washed as it will damage the material and the construction of the shoe.
What does G-fit mean?
Gabor G-fitting indicates a wider fit, providing more room in the width of the shoe compared to a standard D-width.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making it easy to swap them for custom orthotics or fresh replacements.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Yes, these trainers are designed with a generous G-width fit, making them a great option for those who need extra room.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material and restore its texture.
Insole becomes uncomfortable over time
Remove the original insoles and replace them with fresh Gabor insoles or your own preferred orthotic inserts.
Light stains on suede
Use a suede eraser to gently buff out marks before applying a light suede cleaner if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gabor Tavern trainers, it is essential to treat them with a suede-specific protective spray before their first wear to guard against moisture and dirt. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can harden the suede. Use a soft suede brush to remove surface dust regularly. If you require custom insoles, simply lift the existing removable inserts and replace them with your own. For a personalized fit, adjust the lace tension across the instep during your first use to ensure the shoe is secure but not restrictive.
