Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DC Shoes last through the winter season, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations indoors before heading out for long walks to soften the leather upper.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or debris from the leather and nylon surfaces. Avoid submerging the shoes in water as this can compromise the shearling lining.
- Water Protection: Applying a leather-safe water-repellent spray can help maintain the appearance of the wheat leather and protect it from light slush.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue bonds to degrade.
