Product Information

Full details

The Dsquared2 Bos Taurus Low Top Sneakers are designed for the fashion-conscious adult male seeking a blend of distressed style and everyday functionality. Their key benefit lies in the premium calf leather construction offering breathability and a unique lived-in aesthetic, complemented by a secure-grip rubber sole. A potential caveat for some users might be the intentionally distressed and used-effect details, which may not suit those preferring a pristine look. These low-top sneakers feature micro-perforated calf leather, lace-up fastening, and an embossed treaded rubber sole.

FAQs

What material are these sneakers made from?

The sneakers are crafted from soft, micro-perforated 'Bos Taurus' calf leather for the upper and 100% rubber for the sole.

Are the distressed details and used-effect laces intentional?

Yes, the distressed look and used-effect laces are intentional design features that contribute to the unique aesthetic of the sneakers.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Clean the calf leather with a soft, dry cloth. For dirtier areas, use a slightly damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry naturally. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.

What is the primary benefit of the rubber sole?

The sole is an embossed treaded rubber sole designed to provide enhanced grip and secure footing during everyday wear.

Are these suitable for athletic activities?

These sneakers are designed primarily for lifestyle and fashion wear. While the sole offers good grip for daily activities, they are not optimized for intense athletic performance.

How do I ensure the right fit?

Refer to the size guide and consider your usual shoe size. The lace-up fastening allows for some adjustment to achieve a comfortable and secure fit.

What does 'Bos Taurus' refer to?

'Bos Taurus' refers to the breed of cattle from which the calf leather is sourced, indicating a specific type of high-quality leather used in the construction.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff on first wear.

This is common with new leather. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually. The soft calf leather should become more flexible with use.

Minor scuffs or marks on the distressed leather.

The distressed finish is intentional. Minor variations or marks are part of the design aesthetic. For significant damage, consult a professional leather repair service.

Slipping on smooth surfaces.

Ensure the treaded rubber sole is clean and dry. While designed for grip, extremely smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a risk for any footwear.

Laces appear worn or frayed.

The used-effect laces are part of the design. If they become significantly damaged, they can be replaced with similar style laces, available from specialty footwear retailers.
