FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the leather and internal padding. Spot cleaning is recommended.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
The Court Graffik provides a stable, flat base common in skate shoes, which offers a firm platform but lacks high-arch contouring.
Can I use these for sports like soccer?
While durable, these are lifestyle trainers. They lack the specific traction and lightweight flexibility required for field sports.
How do I know if the size is correct?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The generous padding and wide build of the Court Graffik typically accommodate wider feet comfortably.
How often should I clean the soles?
Wiping the soles once a week helps maintain the grip of the 'Pill Pattern' tread and keeps them looking sharp.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight around the heel
Loosen the laces significantly before putting them on, as the extra padding requires more space for entry. The foam will compress slightly after a few wears.
Scuff marks on the white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft white eraser to gently lift scuffs from the surface.
Laces coming untied frequently
Replace standard laces with textured athletic laces if the child struggles with the provided ones, or use a double-knot method.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes last, follow these maintenance guidelines. For general cleaning, wipe the leather or suede surfaces with a soft, damp cloth; avoid submerging them in water, as this can degrade the glue and internal foam padding. For stubborn dirt on the sole, use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap. Because these shoes have a wide, structured profile, they are best paired with casual trousers or athletic shorts. Ensure you use the proper size as indicated on the label, and consider that the thick padding may make the fit feel snug initially—this will soften and mold to the foot over time.
