Product Information
Full details
The DC Shoes Pure WNT-Winter is designed for men who require a rugged, skate-inspired silhouette that performs in cold-weather conditions. Combining durable nubuck leather with ballistic nylon, these trainers offer a perfect balance of street-style aesthetics and winter-ready warmth thanks to their internal shearling lining. While the shoe provides excellent protection against the elements, potential buyers should note that the shearling lining makes the fit snug compared to standard unlined skate shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are designed with water-resistant materials like ballistic nylon and nubuck, but they are not fully waterproof, so avoid submersion.
Can I wear these for actual skateboarding?
Yes, they are built on the classic DC construction, though the lining adds bulk that some skaters may find reduces 'board feel'.
How do I care for the shearling lining?
Keep the lining dry and allow it to air out after use. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners directly on the shearling.
Are these true to size?
They fit true to size length-wise, but the width is slightly restricted by the thick shearling interior.
What is the primary material used in this model?
The upper is a blend of nubuck leather and ballistic nylon.
Are these shoes suitable for summer?
They are designed specifically for the winter season and will likely be too warm for summer use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feeling too tight
Try removing the stock insole to see if there is extra room, or wear thinner socks to accommodate the volume of the shearling.
Salt stains on leather
Use a specialized nubuck cleaning solution or a mixture of water and a small amount of white vinegar to gently wipe away salt marks.
Laces coming loose
Because these shoes use round laces, consider double-knotting them to ensure they stay secure during activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes last through the winter season, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the nubuck leather with a dry brush to remove loose dirt. Do not soak the shoes in water, as this can damage the leather finish.
- Moisture Control: If the shearling lining becomes damp, remove the insoles and air dry the interior in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators.
- Protection: Apply a leather-safe water repellent spray to the nubuck sections to enhance their resistance to salt and slush.
- Fit Tips: Given the volume of the shearling, wearing thin-to-medium thickness socks is recommended to prevent discomfort. If you wear thick wool socks, you may find the internal space restrictive.
