FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
The Coiler is designed as a casual trainer. While it is durable enough for general play, it is not optimized for high-intensity competitive sports.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that may strip the finish.
Does the shoe offer arch support?
The shoe features a classic cupsole that offers a standard, stable base. It is not specifically orthopaedic.
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for children's footwear.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can damage the leather and adhesive bonds.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels too stiff after purchase
Wear the shoes with slightly thicker socks for the first few outings to help stretch the leather naturally.
Sole losing grip due to dirt buildup
Use a stiff brush or a damp cloth to remove compacted dirt and debris from the pill pattern tread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your DC Shoes Coiler trainers in peak condition, ensure you follow these maintenance steps:
- Initial Break-in: Wear the shoes for short periods around the house before full-day school use to allow the leather to mold to the foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush after use. For deeper stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding complete saturation of the leather.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never place near heaters or direct high-heat sources, as this can crack and warp the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the grey colour from fading over time.
