FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking all day?
Yes, the G-width fit and 15mm wedge sole are designed specifically to support the foot during extended periods of activity.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the velvet fabric and compromise the bond between the sole and the upper.
Is the leather insole replaceable?
Yes, the insole is designed to be fully removable for cleaning or replacement.
What does 'G width' mean?
The G-width is Gabor's classification for a slightly wider fit than standard, providing more room in the toe box and forefoot.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Velvet is a textile that can absorb water and become stained or matted when wet.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or debris on the velvet surface
Use a specialized velvet brush or a very soft-bristled clothes brush to gently sweep the fibers.
Insole feels worn out or compressed
Remove the existing leather insole and replace it with a new Gabor-compatible insert or an aftermarket orthotic.
Minor scuffs on the rubber sole
Gently wipe the edges of the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to restore the original finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gabor Trainers remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the velvet color. Since the insole is removable, you can easily swap it out for custom orthotics if necessary. When cleaning the velvet, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust in the direction of the nap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing the trainers, as this can damage the structural integrity of the wedge sole and the delicate nature of the velvet material. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, never near a direct heat source.
