FAQs
What is the primary material of the Dsquared2 Dc-642 Low Shoes?
The upper is primarily made of 90% calfskin leather, with 5% polyamide and 5% elastane. The lining includes calfskin and cotton.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoes?
Use a dedicated suede brush to clean suede. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be used. Avoid using water on suede.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?
While they have an athletic silhouette, they are designed primarily for style and casual comfort, not for rigorous sports.
What does the 'Dc-642' in the product name signify?
This is likely a model or series identifier specific to Dsquared2's product line.
How do I adjust the fit with the dual lacing system?
Loosen the main laces and the strap, place the shoe on your foot, and then retighten the laces and strap to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit.
What is the sole height?
The sole height is approximately 1.5 cm at its highest point.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces can be removed and replaced. The shoes come with two pairs of laces (brown and white).
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the tension of the hiking-style laces and the securing strap. Experiment with different lacing patterns if needed. Ensure the strap is fastened correctly over the laces.
Leather appears dry or scuffed.
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for calfskin. For scuffs, a color-matched shoe cream or polish may help, followed by buffing.
Suede has noticeable marks or discoloration.
Use a suede eraser to gently lift marks. For stubborn stains or water spots, consult a professional leather and suede cleaning service.
Shoes feel uncomfortable after initial wear.
Ensure you are using the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Check that the lacing is not causing pressure points.
