Product Information
Full details
The Gabor Oporto sandal is designed for adult females seeking a comfortable and stylish footwear option for everyday wear, particularly in warmer weather. Its key benefit lies in its blend of soft leather/nubuck uppers, a microfibre lining for all-day comfort, and an adjustable rip tape fastening for a secure fit. A potential caveat is that the width fit is a UK D (Gabor G), which is slightly roomier and may not suit those seeking a narrow fit.

FAQs
What material are the Gabor Oporto sandals made of?
The uppers are made of either leather or nubuck, depending on the colour. The lining is microfibre, and the sole is polyurethane.
How do I adjust the fit of the sandals?
The sandals feature a rip tape fastening, which allows you to easily adjust the tightness or looseness for a personalized fit.
Are the insoles removable?
No, the insoles are not removable in the Gabor Oporto sandal model.
What does 'UK D width (Gabor G)' mean?
This indicates Gabor's standard width fitting, which is equivalent to a UK D width. It offers a slightly roomier fit compared to a narrow or standard fit.
How high is the heel?
The heel height is 3.5cm, providing a modest lift.
Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?
While the polyurethane sole offers some durability, it's best to avoid excessive water exposure, especially with leather or suede uppers. Allow them to dry naturally if they get damp.
What kind of outfits do these sandals best suit?
They are designed for versatile everyday wear and pair well with summer dresses, skirts, casual trousers, and shorts.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the rip tape fastening for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size, as the UK D width is slightly roomier.
Material appears dull or dry (leather).
Apply a leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for the type of leather to restore moisture and shine.
Suede/Nubuck surface has marks.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface marks. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner.
Sole feels slippery.
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. If the slipperiness persists, consider having the sole checked by a cobbler, though polyurethane soles generally offer good grip.
