FAQs

Are these loafers suitable for wide feet?

The soft suede upper provides some flexibility, but Gabor shoes typically follow standard sizing. We recommend ordering your usual size or visiting a retailer for a fitting.

Can I wear these in the rain?

Suede is sensitive to water. While a protective spray helps, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent permanent damage.

How do I clean the fringe detail?

Use a soft brush to gently clear dust from between the fringe layers. Avoid using liquid cleaners on the fringe.

Is the sole slippery?

The loafers feature a manmade sole designed for reliable grip on standard flooring, though extra caution is always advised on polished or icy surfaces.

How long will the suede stay looking new?

With regular brushing and occasional protective spray application, the suede will maintain its appearance for a significant duration of ownership.

Troubleshooting

Surface marks or scuffs on suede

Use a soft-bristled suede brush or a suede eraser to gently remove surface debris and blend the nap.

Shoes feel tight after long wear

Ensure you are wearing appropriate hosiery; if persistent, use a professional leather-stretching spray and insert a shoe tree overnight.

Water spots on suede

Dab the entire surface lightly with a slightly damp cloth to even out the moisture, then allow to dry naturally before brushing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes are ready to wear right out of the box, though it is recommended to apply a protective suede waterproofing spray before the first use to shield the material from light rain and dirt. To maintain the appearance of the suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust and restore the nap of the fabric. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or mud. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
