FAQs

What does 'KCDC' stand for?

KCDC is the name of the skate shop being celebrated for its 20th anniversary, standing for 'Know Future' or 'Kids City'. It's a well-known skate shop based in New York City.

Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?

While built with quality materials and inspired by skate culture, these are primarily considered lifestyle sneakers. They are suitable for casual wear and light skating, but may not withstand the rigors of professional-level skateboarding.

What inspired the design of the DH7742-600?

The design is inspired by NYC's hardcore scene, early Nike SB Dunk designs by Sandy Bodecker, and the KCDC shop's pink-bricked exterior.

How do I clean the pink Durabuck upper?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently remove dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner or eraser can be used, being careful not to oversaturate the material.

What is the significance of the 'Doc Marten-style' nod?

The nod to Doc Marten-style boots comes from the KCDC branded looped heel tab and the robust gum-bottom soles, both elements reminiscent of classic boot designs.

When were these sneakers released?

These sneakers were released in April 2022.

What other colorways or variations are available in the SB Dunk High series?

The Nike SB Dunk High series has seen many collaborations and colorways. Some notable variations include the 'Cider' and 'Workboot' editions, featuring different color palettes and materials.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from the sole

This can sometimes occur with new gum soles. Try flexing the shoe gently or a light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Durabuck material looks scuffed

Use a suede brush or eraser to gently lift scuff marks. For deeper scuffs, professional cleaning might be considered.

Fit feels too tight initially

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure socks are not excessively thick. Adjust lacing to relieve pressure points.

Discoloration on suede or leather

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or moisture. Clean with appropriate materials as described in the care section.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the DH7742-600 trainers:
