Product Information
Full details
The Gabor Oporto sandals are designed for adult women seeking comfortable and stylish everyday footwear. Their key benefit is the combination of a chic strappy design with practical features like rip tape fastening and elasticated gussets for an adaptive fit. A potential consideration is that the insoles are not removable, which might affect those who prefer custom orthotics. These sandals feature leather or nubuck uppers, a microfibre lining, and a durable polyurethane sole.

FAQs
Are the insoles removable?
No, the insoles in the Gabor Oporto sandals are not removable.
What material are the Gabor Oporto sandals made from?
The uppers are made from either high-quality leather or nubuck, depending on the color. The lining is microfibre, and the sole is polyurethane.
How do I clean my leather Oporto sandals?
For leather, use a damp cloth for general cleaning, followed by a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. A waterproofing spray can help protect them.
Can I wear these sandals for a full day of walking?
Yes, the design includes features like elasticated gussets and a comfortable heel height (3.5cm) intended for all-day wear, provided the fit is correct.
What does 'UK D (Gabor G) Width Fit' mean?
This indicates a standard width fitting designed for women's feet. Gabor uses 'G' to denote their standard width.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Gabor Oporto sandals are designed for a standard 'D' width fit. While the rip tape and elastic gussets offer some adjustability, they may not be ideal for significantly wide feet.
What is the heel height of the Oporto sandals?
The heel height is 3.5cm.
Troubleshooting
Rip tape not adhering securely
Ensure both surfaces of the rip tape are clean and free from lint or debris. Press firmly after fastening.
Discomfort from straps
Adjust the rip tape for a looser fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected. The elasticated gussets should provide some give.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new leather. Try flexing the shoe sole or apply a small amount of talcum powder under the insole if possible (though insoles are not removable, check if there's any accessible area).
