No, they are made from leather, nubuck, and mesh. While the materials are durable, they are not waterproof and should be protected with a suede/leather spray if exposed to rain.
They feature an EVA sock liner that provides moderate comfort, but users with specific orthotic needs may prefer to swap the stock liner for a custom insert.
Use a dry cleaning method with a soft brush or a dedicated nubuck cleaning block to lift surface dirt without damaging the material's texture.
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adult males. If you plan to wear very thick socks, you may consider a half-size up.
The Pure series is inspired by skate culture and features a grippy tread and cupsole construction, making them durable enough for casual riding.
Ensure you are using a double knot and that the laces are threaded tightly through the top eyelet to utilize the high-top ankle lockdown.
Leather and nubuck materials require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the materials to soften.
Use a firm plastic-bristled brush to clear out gravel or mud stuck in the pill pattern tread to maintain optimal traction.
To ensure your DC Pure High Top WC trainers last, keep them away from excessive moisture to protect the integrity of the leather and nubuck. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and leather surfaces. For stubborn stains on the nubuck, use a specialized nubuck eraser or cleaner. Ensure the laces are adjusted properly through the front eyelets to maintain a secure fit, which prevents the heel from slipping during movement. These shoes pair best with denim or relaxed-fit trousers given their classic, beefy silhouette.
