FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear, or just skateboarding?

The DC Gaveler Low Skate Shoes are designed for versatile use. Their comfortable construction and classic style make them equally suitable for everyday casual wear as they are for skateboarding.

How do I choose the correct size?

These shoes generally run true to standard UK men's sizing. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.

What is the best way to clean these shoes?

For general cleaning, wipe the surface with a damp cloth or use a soft brush to remove dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Are there other colors available in the Gaveler series?

Yes, while this specific product is in grey, the DC Gaveler series may be available in other colorways. Please check the product listings for other variants.

Are these shoes durable enough for frequent skateboarding?

Yes, the DC Gaveler Low Skate Shoes feature a durable construction specifically designed to withstand the wear and tear associated with skateboarding. They offer good longevity for regular use.

Do these shoes offer good grip for skateboarding?

Yes, the outsole of the DC Gaveler Low Skate Shoes is designed to provide reliable grip and board feel, which is essential for effective skateboarding performance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Like many durable skate shoes, a short break-in period may be required. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to mold to your foot. Lacing adjustments can also improve comfort.

Sole grip seems to be diminishing.

Check the sole for excessive dirt or debris. Clean the sole thoroughly with a brush and water. If the sole tread is significantly worn down, it may indicate it's time for new shoes, especially if used heavily for skateboarding.

Shoes are discolored or stained.

For light dirt, use a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild shoe cleaner or a gentle soap-and-water solution with a soft brush. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Shoes develop an odor.

Remove the insoles and allow both the insoles and shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Care Instructions

To maximize the lifespan and maintain the appearance of your DC Gaveler Low Skate Shoes, follow these care tips:

  1. Cleaning:
  • Surface Dirt: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) or a damp cloth to gently wipe away loose dirt and dust from the upper and sole.
  • Stains: For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with water. Apply with a cloth and gently rub the stained area. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the material.
  • Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them with soap and water, then air dry.
  1. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), which can cause materials to shrink or crack. Do not put them in a dryer.
  2. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. If storing for an extended period, you can use shoe trees or stuff them with crumpled paper to help maintain their shape.
  3. Odor Control: If odors develop, remove the insoles and allow them to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight.
  4. Avoid Excessive Wetness: While durable, prolonged exposure to extreme wet conditions should be avoided to preserve the material integrity and shape.
