Product Information

Full details

The DC Shoes Pure High Top WC is a durable, skate-inspired trainer designed for adult men who prioritize ankle support and a classic street aesthetic. Featuring a robust black nubuck upper and specialized wrap cupsole construction, it provides excellent stability for daily wear or casual skateboarding sessions, though its high-top profile may feel slightly restrictive for those accustomed to low-profile athletic shoes.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for adult trainers.

Can these be used for professional running?

No, these are categorized as lifestyle skate trainers and do not provide the necessary arch support or cushioning for distance running.

How do I protect the black nubuck material?

We recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for nubuck or suede before your first use.

Is the high-top collar flexible?

The collar is well-padded for comfort, but it is structured to provide support, so it will not have the same flexibility as a low-top canvas shoe.

What is the primary material of the outsole?

The outsole is constructed from durable rubber, designed with a unique pill pattern to enhance grip.

Troubleshooting

Stiffness when new

Nubuck and cupsole shoes require a brief break-in period; wear them for short durations indoors to soften the materials.

Surface scuffing on the upper

Use a suede or nubuck eraser to gently buff out minor scuff marks.

Laces coming untied

The round profile of some skate laces can slip; consider a double knot or replacing them with flat-style laces for more friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent ankle support provided by the high-top design
  • Durable nubuck construction suitable for daily use
  • Strong grip from the signature pill pattern rubber outsole
  • Comfortable padding in the collar and tongue area

Cons

  • High-top design may limit ankle range of motion for some users
  • Nubuck material requires specific care to prevent staining
  • Heavier build compared to lightweight mesh running trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your DC Pure High Top WC trainers maintain their condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit Adjustment: Utilize the front lacing system to customize the tightness. For skate use, ensure a snug fit around the midfoot to prevent internal shifting.
  2. Cleaning: As the upper is made of nubuck, avoid soaking the shoes. Use a dry soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated nubuck cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with very mild soap, then allow to air dry away from direct heat sources.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the high-top shape when not in use.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers pair well with denim or loose-fit utility trousers due to their bulky skate aesthetic.
