FAQs
Are the DC Shoes Stag WNT suitable for professional skateboarding?
The Stag WNT features a sturdy cupsole construction and durable materials, making it suitable for recreational skateboarding. For professional-level demands, skaters often prefer shoes with enhanced padding and specific board feel characteristics.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by DC Shoes or consult the size listed in the product title and description. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately for the best fit.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structural integrity of the shoe.
What is the 'foil strobel' feature?
The foil strobel is a thermal layer integrated into the shoe's construction to provide additional insulation and retain heat, enhancing warmth in cold conditions.
How does the Stag WNT differ from the standard Stag model?
The Stag WNT is a winterised version, incorporating a foil strobel for added warmth. The standard Stag model does not include these winter-specific features.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Stag WNT is designed for warmth and is water-resistant due to its materials, but not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion may still lead to water ingress.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on the outsole.
Clean the Pill Pattern tread with a brush and water to remove accumulated dirt and debris. Ensure the surface you are on is also clean.
Discomfort from the tongue or collar.
Loosen the laces slightly and ensure the foam-padded tongue and collar are sitting correctly. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.
Upper materials feel stiff.
This is normal for new leather, nubuck, or suede. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Feet feel too warm.
While designed for warmth, the medial perforations aid breathability. For very hot weather, consider socks with moisture-wicking properties or a less insulated shoe model.

Compatibility:
These shoes are designed for general wear and skateboarding. They are compatible with most skateboards and suitable for walking on urban terrain. Sizing is available in UK adult men's sizes.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For leather and nubuck parts, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For suede, use a dedicated suede brush and cleaner. Avoid excessive water.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a damp cloth to wipe the rubber outsole clean. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a brush.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
