FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, the padded collar and impact-resistant mid-sole make them very comfortable for extended daily use.
How do I clean the nubuck material?
Use a dedicated nubuck brush to gently lift dirt and maintain the nap of the material.
Does the high-top design restrict ankle movement?
While it offers more support than a low top, the padding is flexible enough to allow for normal athletic range of motion.
Is the sole non-marking?
The high-grade rubber outsole is durable, but avoid dragging them on delicate indoor surfaces to prevent scuff marks.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to replace them with orthotic or custom insoles if desired.
Are these true to size?
DC Shoes generally follow standard sizing, but because of the internal padding, some users prefer a half-size up for a more relaxed fit.
Troubleshooting
Excessive dirt trapped in the pill tread
Use a stiff-bristled plastic brush to dislodge debris, or tap the soles together outside.
Laces coming undone during activity
Double-knot the laces or ensure they are pulled tightly through the upper eyelets to secure the ankle support.
Scuffing on the nubuck material
Use a specialized suede or nubuck eraser to gently buff out surface scuffs and restore the texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DC Pure High Tops, follow these maintenance guidelines. When first wearing the shoes, ensure the laces are tightened firmly across the padded collar to maximize the support benefits. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the nubuck and textile panels. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes, as this can degrade the adhesives in the cup sole construction. To address odors, remove the insoles after heavy use to let them air out. Ensure the shoes are stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the nubuck from fading.
