FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
The Gola Torpedo M trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they are inspired by athletic shoes, they are not intended for rigorous sports or professional athletic training.
How do I clean mud or wet stains from the suede?
Allow the mud to dry completely, then brush it off with a suede brush. For wet stains, gently blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. Use a suede eraser for specific marks, and always test any cleaning method on an inconspicuous area first.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The Gola Torpedo M model is available in various colorways, including different shades of suede and accent colors. Please check the product listings for available options.
What is the fit like? Are they true to size?
These trainers are generally considered true to size. However, if you have wider feet or are between sizes, it may be advisable to consider sizing up for a more comfortable fit.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While suede can be treated with protectant sprays to offer some resistance, it is not inherently waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage and staining.
What material is used for the sole?
The specific material for the sole is typically a durable rubber compound, designed for grip and longevity suitable for casual wear.
Troubleshooting
Suede looking dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser and follow up with a suede protector spray.
Laces becoming worn
Replace laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length and color. Many general retailers offer suitable replacements.
Slightly tight fit
Wear the trainers with thicker socks for a short period to help them stretch slightly. If the issue persists, consider if a larger size would have been more appropriate, especially if you have wider feet.

Care Instructions:
- Suede Protection: Apply a suede protector spray before first use and periodically thereafter to guard against water and stains.
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water excessively, as it can damage the suede.
- Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with paper to help them retain their shape and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and damage.
