FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made of leather and suede and are not waterproof. We recommend applying a protector spray to help with water resistance.
Can I use these for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the abrasion-resistant outsole and durable upper are designed to handle the rigors of skateboarding.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing; however, since they are high-tops with thick padding, some users prefer a half-size up if wearing thick socks.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the standard insoles can be removed if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
What is the best way to clean the white rubber outsole?
A magic eraser sponge or a mix of mild soap and water with a soft scrub brush works well on the rubber portions.
Troubleshooting
Tongue shifting during wear
Ensure the laces are threaded through the centering loop on the tongue to keep it in place.
Suede appears scuffed or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and restore the texture of the material.
Unpleasant odor after long use
Remove the insoles to air them out and use an antimicrobial shoe spray to neutralize bacteria in the mesh lining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since these trainers feature leather, nubuck, and suede, avoid machine washing as this can damage the structural materials and adhesive.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the suede and nubuck areas. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather/suede cleaner.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces firmly through the top eyelet to maximize the benefits of the high-top support system.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede and leather before your first use.
