Full details

The Dsquared2 Dc-642 Trainers are designed for the style-conscious adult male seeking a polished, athletic footwear option for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in the premium blend of suede and leather materials, offering both durability and a sophisticated look. A potential caveat is their slim, athletic silhouette, which may not suit those preferring a wider fit. These low-top sneakers feature a unique lace-up system with hiking-style double laces and an over-lace strap, contrasting grey inserts, a light grey side stripe, and distinctive red maple leaf motif on the heel panel.

FAQs

What material are the Dsquared2 Dc-642 Trainers made from?

The upper is primarily composed of 90% calf leather, 5% polyamide, and 5% elastane, with suede detailing. The lining is a mix of 50% calf leather and 50% cotton, and the sole is 100% elastodiene.

Do these trainers come with different lace options?

Yes, the Dsquared2 Dc-642 Trainers include two pairs of laces: one brown and one white.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush to gently clean the suede. For stubborn dirt or stains, it is recommended to consult a professional leather and suede cleaning service.

What is the sole height of these trainers?

The sole height measures approximately 1.5 cm at its highest point.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?

While they have an athletic silhouette, they are designed primarily for fashion and everyday wear, not for intense sports or athletic performance. The low-profile design offers limited ankle support.

What is the fit like?

The trainers feature a slim, athletic silhouette and a low-profile design.

Where is the Dsquared2 branding located?

The Dsquared2 logo is found on the tongue and the interior lining. A distinctive red maple leaf motif is present on the heel panel.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel difficult to adjust.

Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets and the over-lace strap. Pull evenly on both sides to tighten.

Suede appears dull or marked.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface marks. For tougher stains, consult a professional leather cleaner.

Leather creasing excessively.

Normal wear and tear will cause some creasing in leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.

Sole shows signs of wear.

The sole is made of elastodiene. For minor scuffs, a damp cloth may suffice. Significant wear might require professional resoling, though this is uncommon for fashion trainers.
