Is the Gola Elan waterproof?

It is listed as waterproof, but it is not a Gore-Tex shoe. The suede and leather upper handles light rain; standing water and heavy storms will get through.

How does the Gola Elan fit?

It is a normal-width women's shoe and most buyers take their usual size. If you have wide feet, consider sizing up or trying a half size larger.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is listed as 0.0 inches. The Elan is a flat low-top sneaker, so the heel detail is styling rather than lift.

What is the insole made of?

The insole is cork and textile. Cork molds to the foot over time and is a common comfort choice in casual sneakers.

Our take on the Gola Elan

The Gola Elan is a women's low-top sneaker with a suede and leather upper, lace-up fastening, and a rubber outsole. It comes in brown, beige and multicolor, with a cork and textile insole and a leather, fleece, cotton or textile lining depending on the colorway. The listing flags waterproofing and reflectors, but it is not a Gore-Tex shoe. At $72.00 at Belk as of November 7, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range, with six stores pricing it new.

Best forShoppers who want a retro suede-and-leather sneakerEveryday casual wear in fall and winterBuyers who prefer a cork insoleWomen who want a lace-up low-top with a hint of heel

Pros

Suede and leather upper looks more expensive than the price
Cork and textile insole adds comfort underfoot
Rubber outsole gives dependable grip
Waterproof and reflector details suit wet, dark commutes
Wide size run from US 4 to 11

Cons

Not Gore-Tex, so waterproofing is limited to treated uppers
Suede needs care and does not wipe clean like leather
Normal width only, so wide feet may feel pinched
Heel height is listed as 0.0 inches, so there is no real lift
