FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather provides some natural resistance, they are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray.
What does width F mean?
Width F is a standard 'regular' width fitting, suitable for most feet.
Can I replace the insole with my own?
Yes, the Gabor Schnürstiefelette features a removable footbed specifically designed to allow for the insertion of custom orthotic insoles.
Is the heel height comfortable for long walks?
Yes, the 4 cm block heel is designed for stability and comfort, making it suitable for moderate walking distances.
How do I clean the leather?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, use a black leather cream to touch up the affected areas.
Does the zipper affect the fit?
The zipper allows for easy entry, while the laces let you customize the tension across the top of your foot for a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to pull
Ensure the zipper track is free of dirt or debris; apply a small amount of beeswax or a dedicated zipper lubricant to smooth the motion.
Footbed feels tight when using personal orthotics
Remove the original Gabor insole entirely before inserting your custom orthotic to create more vertical volume inside the shoe.
Leather surface appearing dull
Apply a high-quality leather cream or shoe polish in a matching black shade to restore the natural luster of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor boots remain in top condition, start by applying a leather-appropriate waterproofing spray before the first use. Since the footbed is removable, you can easily swap it out for custom orthotics by gently lifting the original insert from the heel area. For daily maintenance, wipe down the smooth leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust. If the boots get wet, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or lose its shape. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
