FAQs
Are these heels suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the 50 mm wedge and Best Fitting technology are specifically designed to reduce foot fatigue during extended use.
Can I replace the original insole?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for your own custom orthotics if required.
How should I clean the suede material?
Use a dry suede brush to remove surface dust. Avoid getting the suede saturated with water.
What is the benefit of the rubber sole?
The rubber sole offers better traction compared to leather soles and provides insulation against cold ground temperatures.
Is the heel height comfortable for walking?
The 50 mm wedge is considered a low-to-mid height, providing a stable platform that is much easier to walk in than traditional stiletto heels.
Are these shoes true to size?
The shoes are designed with extra forefoot width, which may provide a roomier fit than standard narrow-cut pumps.
Troubleshooting
The fit feels too tight across the forefoot
Ensure the internal removable insole is seated correctly; if you use custom orthotics, ensure they are not thicker than the original insole.
Suede appears dull or dusty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the leather by brushing in one direction.
Loss of grip on the sole
Clean the bottom of the rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove compacted debris or wax buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Gabor shoes involves proper maintenance and fit management. Since the insoles are removable, you can test the fit with and without them if you wear specialized orthotics. For the suede finish, we recommend a soft-bristle brush to remove dry dust and dirt after each wear. If the shoes become damp, let them dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink. Always use a protective suede spray before wearing them outdoors for the first time to help repel water and prevent light stains.
