Product Information
Full details
The DC Shoes Court Graffik in Black Gum is designed for adult men who need a reliable, durable, and stylish skate shoe for daily wear or recreational skating. The key benefit of this model is its blend of high-durability leather construction and technical comfort features, though users should be aware that the substantial padding gives the shoe a bulkier profile compared to slim-line skate sneakers.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Court Graffik generally fits true to standard UK sizing, though the extra internal padding provides a snug feel.
Can I use these for running?
No, these are skate trainers designed for board feel and casual wear; they lack the arch support and cushioning required for long-distance running.
How do I maintain the gum sole?
Clean the gum sole periodically with a damp rag and a mild detergent to maintain its traction and color.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While the leather is durable, the shoes are not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the material quality.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the standard insole can typically be removed if you prefer to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Stiff leather feel upon first use
Wear the shoes indoors for short periods to break in the material naturally before regular skating use.
Accumulation of dirt in ventilation holes
Use a soft-bristled brush or a compressed air canister to gently dislodge debris from the eyelets and side ventilation ports.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Court Graffik trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe leather surfaces with a damp cloth to remove dust. For tougher stains on the synthetic parts, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or lose its shape.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to account for the thick tongue; lacing them moderately tight will keep your foot locked in without compromising the comfort of the padding.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and maintain the integrity of the materials.
