FAQs
Are the DC Court Graffik shoes good for actual skateboarding?
The Court Graffik is designed with skate-inspired features like durable suede and grip, making them suitable for casual skating and daily wear. However, they are best suited for lighter skate use and may not offer the advanced cushioning and support required for professional or heavy-impact skateboarding.
How do I clean the grey suede material?
Gently brush the suede with a soft suede brush to remove dust and dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a clean cloth. Avoid using water, as it can alter the color and texture of the suede.
What does the padding in the tongue and collar provide?
The foam padding in the tongue and collar is designed to offer enhanced comfort and a more secure fit around the ankle, reducing friction and providing support during wear.
How does the sizing run for these shoes?
Sizing for the Court Graffik generally follows standard UK adult male sizing. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to check the specific size guide and consider your usual shoe fit preferences.
Are these shoes breathable?
Yes, the shoes feature vent holes in the upper and a lightweight mesh tongue to improve airflow and breathability, helping to keep your feet comfortable.
What is the DC's trademarked Pill Pattern tread?
This is a specific outsole pattern developed by DC Shoes, designed to provide excellent grip and durability, which is crucial for board feel and control in skateboarding.
Troubleshooting
Suede looking worn or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the texture and remove light dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.
Shoe feels too tight
Wear the shoes with thicker socks for a short period to help them stretch naturally. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate.
Tread losing grip
Ensure the sole is free from excessive dirt or debris. While the Pill Pattern tread is durable, prolonged heavy use can wear it down over time.
