Product Information
Full details
The Gabor Baby women's loafer in beige suede is designed for adult women seeking stylish comfort for all-day wear. Its key benefit is the blend of a chic aesthetic with practical features like a removable insole and secure slip-on design. A potential consideration is its wide width fitting, which may not suit narrower feet. This loafer features a recycled removable footbed, color-coded trim, twin elasticated gussets, and a contrasting TR rubber sole for excellent grip.

FAQs
Are these loafers suitable for very hot weather?
The fleece lining might be warmer than other materials. While comfortable for general wear, they may not be ideal for extremely high temperatures if you prefer a cooler feel.
Can I wear these loafers without socks?
Yes, the fleece lining is designed to be comfortable against the skin, making them suitable for sockless wear. The removable insole can also help with moisture management.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and dirt removal. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and protect with a suede protector spray.
What is the heel height of these loafers?
The heel height is 3cm.
Are the insoles truly removable?
Yes, the insoles are designed to be removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
What does 'wide width fitting' mean?
It means the shoes are made with a more generous fit across the width of the foot compared to standard-fit shoes, providing extra comfort for wider feet.
How do I maintain the colour of the beige suede?
Regular brushing with a suede brush will help maintain the texture and colour. Using a suede protector spray designed for light colours can also help prevent discoloration from water and dirt.
Troubleshooting
Loafers feel too tight despite being the correct size.
This may be due to the wide width fitting not being suitable, or the fleece lining needing a short break-in period. Try wearing them with thinner socks or for short periods initially.
Suede appears dull or has minor scuffs.
Use a suede brush to gently buff the surface and lift the nap. For more persistent marks, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions.
Slipping sensation on smooth floors.
Ensure the TR rubber sole is clean and dry. If the issue persists, a professional cobbler might be able to apply a different sole grip if necessary.
Insole needs replacing.
Gently pull the existing insole out. The shoes are designed to accept standard-sized replacement insoles. Ensure the new insole fits snugly without bunching.
