FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the DC Manteca 4 generally fits true to your standard UK size, though the internal padding may feel snug initially.

Can I use these for professional skateboarding?

Absolutely. The triple-stitch toe and cupsole design are specifically engineered for the rigors of skateboarding.

How do I clean the suede panels?

Use a specialized suede brush or a clean, dry toothbrush to gently remove dirt. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners.

Is the sole flexible?

The cupsole provides a good balance of support and flexibility, though it is sturdier than a standard thin vulcanized skate shoe.

Does this shoe provide good arch support?

The cupsole construction offers better structural support and stability compared to flat-soled sneakers, making it comfortable for extended wear.

Troubleshooting

Tongue shifting during wear

Ensure the internal tongue straps are positioned correctly over the midfoot area and not twisted.

Suede looks dull or dusty

Use a dry suede brush to lift the nap of the material and restore its natural texture.

Laces loosening during use

Replace standard laces with textured or wider skate-specific laces to increase friction and knot security.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability due to suede and triple-stitch construction
  • Superior impact protection from the cupsole unit
  • Secure, stable fit thanks to integrated tongue straps
  • Distinctive and stylish orange/brown colorway

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful cleaning to avoid water damage
  • Padding adds weight compared to slim-profile sneakers
  • Not suitable for use in heavy rain or wet conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best fit, ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets properly to work in tandem with the internal tongue straps. These shoes are true to size for standard UK sizes, but it is recommended to wear them with medium-thickness skate socks for optimal comfort.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dry dirt from the suede surface.
  • Stains: If necessary, use a specialized suede cleaner and apply sparingly.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the orange panels.
  • Avoid Water: Do not machine wash or submerge in water, as this can degrade the suede and weaken the adhesives used in the cupsole construction.
