FAQs

Can I wash the Gabor Dixie shoes in a washing machine?

No, you should never put suede shoes in a washing machine as this will ruin the material and the structural integrity of the shoe.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Gabor Dixie is a standard fit court shoe, but the removable insole feature provides some flexibility for those needing a slightly different internal fit.

How high is the heel?

The heel height is 4cm, which is considered a manageable block heel height for all-day wear.

Do I need to spray the suede before wearing?

It is highly recommended to use a suede protector spray before the first wear to guard against dirt and potential liquid spills.

Are these shoes good for long walks?

While the block heel is stable and comfortable, they are designed as a fashion-forward court shoe rather than a walking shoe.

Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?

Yes, the Gabor Dixie comes with removable insoles specifically to allow for the use of personal orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Gently use a suede-specific brush to lift the nap and restore the texture.

Insole feels tight after adding orthotics

Ensure the original removable insole is completely taken out before inserting your custom orthotic.

Light water marks appearing

Allow the shoe to dry completely and gently rub the area with a dry suede sponge or brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Gabor Dixie shoes stay in top condition, follow these steps:

  1. Preparation: Before wearing them for the first time, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to help repel water and prevent stains.
  2. Customization: If using custom orthotics, gently lift out the existing factory insoles before placing your own inside the shoe.
  3. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dust and debris. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the suede colour over time. Use shoe trees or crumpled paper to help maintain the shoe's shape when not in use.
  5. Moisture: If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature. Never place them near a heater, as direct heat can cause the suede to stiffen or warp.
