Product Information
Full details
The DC Shoes Pure High-Top Wc Winter is designed for adult men who need a reliable, stylish trainer capable of handling colder environments. By combining a robust leather and synthetic upper with a cozy shearling lining, these trainers offer enhanced warmth and durability for daily wear. One primary caveat to keep in mind is that the shearling lining provides a snugger fit than traditional skate shoes, so users may need to adjust their sock thickness or consider the break-in period.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the materials are durable, they are not fully waterproof. It is advised to use a leather/nylon protector spray to improve water resistance.
Should I size up because of the lining?
Most users find their standard size is sufficient, but if you prefer wearing very thick wool socks, you might consider sizing up by half.
Can these be used for skateboarding?
While based on a skate silhouette, the shearling lining makes these more suited for winter lifestyle wear rather than high-performance technical skating.
How do I clean the shearling lining?
Spot clean only using a mild detergent and a damp cloth; avoid soaking the interior to prevent long drying times and potential matting of the lining.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from a combination of nubuck leather and durable ballistic nylon.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight upon first wear
The shearling lining will compress and conform to your foot after a few wears. Try thinner socks until the break-in period is complete.
Accumulation of salt or grit on the surface
Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp microfiber cloth and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes last, it is recommended to apply a protective water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather and nylon materials before initial use. When cleaning, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth to spot-clean the upper; avoid submerging the shoes in water as this can damage the internal shearling. To maintain the shape of the high-top, store the shoes in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if you plan to store them away for the season. Ensure you are wearing the correct UK size, as the thick lining may make them feel tighter initially than your non-winterized footwear.
