Product Information
Full details
The DC Shoes Coiler trainers are designed for adult males who appreciate a retro aesthetic combined with modern technical support. Featuring a mid-puff silhouette and reliable cupsole construction, these shoes excel at providing all-day comfort and stability for casual wear; however, the leather construction and padded design mean they offer more weight and less ventilation compared to lightweight performance running shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for skating?
While they feature durable leather and cupsole construction, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers with a retro aesthetic.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The Coiler fits true to standard UK sizing. If you prefer a thicker sock, you may want to consider this when selecting your size.
Are they water-resistant?
The leather construction offers moderate protection against light moisture, but they are not waterproof.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to use custom orthotics.
How often should I clean the leather?
Depending on usage, a quick wipe-down every few weeks will maintain the appearance of the leather.
Are the eyestays replaceable?
No, the moulded TPR eyestays are an integral part of the shoe structure.
Troubleshooting
Stiffness when new
The foam padding requires a brief break-in period. Wear for short durations initially to allow the materials to soften.
Build-up of debris in the tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear dirt from the Pill Pattern grooves to restore maximum traction.
Leather surface marks
Gently buff scuffs with a clean, dry cloth or a leather-safe cleaning solution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Coiler trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear them indoors for short intervals during the first few days to allow the foam padding to contour to your foot shape.
- Lacing: Utilize the moulded TPR eyestays to cinch the shoe comfortably; avoid overtightening, which may stress the eyelets over time.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the leather surfaces. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and a damp cloth; avoid soaking the material.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
