FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing, though the padded lining provides a snugger feel than thinner canvas shoes.
Can I use these for skating?
Absolutely. The wrap cupsole and abrasion-resistant rubber are specifically designed to handle the friction and impact associated with skateboarding.
How do I keep the white parts of the shoe clean?
A dedicated sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap and water mixture with a soft-bristled brush works best on the white rubber soles.
Is the material waterproof?
While the leather upper provides some water resistance, they are not fully waterproof and should be treated with a leather protectant spray for better weather resistance.
Will the high-top design limit my ankle mobility?
The padded collar is designed to offer support without locking the ankle, though it will feel more restrictive than a low-top model.
Are the insoles removable?
Most DC Pure models feature standard cushioned insoles that can be replaced with custom orthotics if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming loose frequently
Consider using a double knot or replacing the stock laces with high-friction performance laces.
Creasing in the leather toe box
This is a natural occurrence in leather shoes; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Material scuffing after heavy use
Use a matching leather color balm or cream to touch up and buff out minor surface abrasions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes last, start by loosening the laces fully to allow for an easy fit, then tighten securely for maximum ankle support. Because these are constructed with leather, avoid machine washing them, as this can degrade the material and adhesives. Instead, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the surface. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and a damp cloth, allowing the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent cracking.
