FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
While the product description does not specify width fittings, the dual zip design may offer some flexibility. It is recommended to try them on if possible or check specific sizing guides for Gabor footwear.
How do I clean the pink leather trainers?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For more thorough cleaning, apply a small amount of neutral leather cleaner with a soft cloth, then buff gently with a dry cloth. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
Leather offers some water resistance, but these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. For wet conditions, consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for leather, and ensure they are thoroughly dried afterwards.
What is the difference between leather and suede variants?
The leather variants offer a smoother finish and are generally easier to clean. The suede variants have a soft, napped texture that requires more specialized care to maintain its appearance and avoid staining.
How high is the flatform sole?
The exact height of the flatform sole is not specified in the product details, but it is designed to provide a noticeable yet comfortable lift for a stylish appearance.
Do the zips affect the fit?
The dual zips are primarily for ease of access. The main fit of the trainer is determined by the laces and the overall shoe construction. The zips do not typically alter the shoe's fit once it is on your foot.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
These trainers pair well with various types of socks, including no-show socks for a seamless look, ankle socks, or even patterned socks to add a personal touch to your outfit. Given the leather footbed, wearing socks is generally recommended for comfort and hygiene.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty with zips
Ensure the fabric around the zip is not caught. Gently work the zip up and down. If persistent, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) on the teeth may help.
Discomfort during first wear
Leather can take a short period to mould to your feet. Wear them for short periods initially. Ensure correct sizing, as an improper fit is the most common cause of discomfort.
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a leather conditioner suitable for the colour of the trainers. Use a clean, soft cloth and buff gently.
Suede stains or looks matted
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, try a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
