FAQs
What materials are the DC Shoes Cure Hi Top Trainers made of?
The upper is crafted from leather, nubuck, or suede, depending on the specific colorway. The lining is made of textile (mesh), and the outsole is durable rubber.
Are these trainers suitable for skateboarding?
While inspired by skate culture and featuring a robust cup sole, these are primarily designed as casual trainers. For intense skateboarding, specific skate shoes with enhanced durability and features might be more appropriate.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by DC Shoes and measure your foot length. The product details specify UK sizing (e.g., UK 8). It's recommended to try them on if possible or consult customer reviews regarding fit.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The leather/nubuck/suede upper offers some protection, but these are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended and may require treatment with a water-repellent spray suitable for the material.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the time of purchase. Please check the product listing or contact the seller for details on warranty coverage.
How can I maintain the appearance of the suede/nubuck options?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a suede cleaner. It is advisable to treat suede or nubuck with a protective spray to guard against stains and water damage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks for initial wear to help stretch them slightly, or explore professional shoe stretching services if the tightness is significant.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes be caused by friction between different parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area to reduce friction.
Outsole losing grip
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. If the rubber has become smooth over time, gentle scuffing on a rough surface might help restore some texture, but significant wear may require replacement.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace the laces with a new pair of similar length and material. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to prevent undue stress.
