Product Information
Full details
The Dsquared2 Dc-642 Low Shoes are designed for the fashion-conscious adult male seeking a blend of athletic style and premium materials for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in the versatile, sleek silhouette combined with unique detailing like the double hiking-style laces and contrasting accents. A potential caveat is the specialized care required for the suede and leather construction to maintain their appearance. These low-top sneakers feature a combination of calfskin, polyamide, and elastane for the upper, with a calfskin and cotton lining, and an elastodiene sole.

FAQs
What materials are these shoes made from?
The upper is made from 90% calfskin, 5% polyamide, and 5% elastane. The lining is a blend of 50% calfskin and 50% cotton, and the sole is 100% elastodiene.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoes?
Use a specialized suede brush to clean dry dirt and to restore the nap. A suede eraser can be used for stains. Avoid using water, as it can cause staining.
Can I wear these shoes for sports?
These shoes are designed for casual wear and fashion. Their construction and low-profile sole are not intended for athletic performance.
What are the different lace options?
The shoes come with two pairs of laces: one in brown and one in white, allowing you to customize the look.
What is the sole height?
The sole height is approximately 1.5 cm at its highest point.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
What does the red maple leaf motif signify?
The red maple leaf motif on the heel counter is a signature design element of the Dsquared2 brand.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel difficult to tie or adjust.
Ensure the hiking-style laces are threaded evenly through the eyelets. The strap closure may require a slight adjustment to accommodate preferred tightness.
Suede appears matted or discolored.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For persistent discoloration, a suede eraser might be necessary. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Leather shows scuff marks.
For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner or polish of the appropriate color may help to mask them. Deeper scuffs might require professional repair.
Shoes feel slightly stiff on first wear.
This is normal for new leather and suede products. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your feet.
