Full details

The DC Shoes Pure High Top WC trainers are designed for adult skaters and streetwear enthusiasts who prioritize ankle support and a classic, rugged aesthetic. By elevating the iconic Pure silhouette into a high-top design, these shoes offer a sturdy, comfortable fit perfect for daily wear or board sessions, though the substantial padding and leather construction may feel slightly heavier than minimalist casual sneakers.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?

Yes, they feature impact-resistant midsoles and abrasion-resistant rubber outsoles designed specifically for skate performance.

Do I need to spray these with a protector?

Using a leather/nubuck water and stain repellent spray can help maintain the appearance of the black/grey upper.

Are the insoles removable?

The trainers feature a standard internal construction; however, for optimal support, the factory-installed foam is designed to be kept in place.

How does the size compare to other brands?

DC Shoes generally follow standard sizing, but if you prefer extra room for thick socks, you may consider your typical athletic footwear size.

Can I wear these in winter?

While durable, the standard model is not waterproof. For winter-specific conditions, look for the 'Winter' or 'WNT' series variants which include specialized linings.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight during initial wear

The foam padding in the collar and tongue will break in and compress slightly over the first few days of use for a custom fit.

Difficulty cleaning nubuck material

Use a specialized nubuck eraser or a dry suede brush to lift dirt without damaging the texture.

Outsole losing grip

Wipe the rubber outsole with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris that can accumulate in the pill-pattern tread.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent ankle protection and support
Durable abrasion-resistant rubber outsole
Stylish aesthetic with versatile black/grey colorway
Good cushioning for impact absorption
Breathable design via medial ventilation holes

Cons

Heavier than low-profile trainers
Leather and nubuck requires specific cleaning care
High-top silhouette may feel restrictive for some users

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

Lacing: Use the full set of eyelets to maximize the benefits of the high-top ankle support.
Cleaning: Gently brush away surface dirt from the nubuck and textile areas using a soft-bristle brush. Use a damp cloth for the white and gum sole unit. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the adhesive in the cupsole construction.
Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material stiffening.
Compatibility: These shoes are true-to-size and pair well with standard skate socks or cushioned performance socks to maximize the internal padding comfort.
