FAQ

1. How do I know my size?

Shoe size - calf circumference - foot width - ankle circumference

Our Gabylou products are non-standard in terms of size, calf circumference, foot circumference and ankle circumference.

We create boot models with calf sizes ranging from XS to 6XL:
Slim calves --> 2 calf sizes; XS & S
Wide calves --> 6 calf sizes; XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL & VARIO 5XL/6XL

Each boot model is only available in one calf size, but there's plenty of choice to suit all calf widths.

Ankle and foot circumferences vary depending on the model and size. We recommend that you refer to the size chart in the photos describing each product.

14. How to look after your products?

Here are our best tips for looking after your boots or sandals.

 

Gabylou declines all responsibility in the event of alteration, deterioration or modification of the appearance of its products resulting from the use of unsuitable maintenance or waterproofing products. The purchaser is solely responsible for the choice and application of these products. It is recommended that only products specifically adapted to the materials concerned are used.

15. Do you have physical shops?

We don't have any physical Gabylou shops and we don't currently have any plans to develop one.

All our products are available on our e-shop: www.gabylou.eu.

Please refer to our detailed size guide to find out your exact size.

What's more, returns are free, so it's worth trying.

You can also find some of our products in physical shops. You'll find a list of these boutiques at the bottom of our home page: www.gabylou.eu.

16. How can I become a Gabylou retailer?

Find all the information on our ‘Reseller’ page.

17. Will you restock your out-of-stock products?

We renew our collection every year with new models and/or new colours.
However, some models and/or colours may be carried over from one year to the next, depending on their success.

As far as our stocks are concerned, everything is online and we don't restock our products during the season. Occasionally, a product that is out of stock will come back into stock when a customer returns it.
So don't hesitate to come and have a look at our site from time to time!

When you fall in love with a pair of shoes, don't wait to place an order, otherwise the pair in question may be permanently out of stock.
