Product Information
Full details
The DC Shoes Hyde Sneaker in Blue, UK size 6, is designed for adult males seeking a comfortable and stylish casual trainer. Its key benefit lies in the combination of a cotton upper for breathability and DC's IMPACT-I Inflexion technology for cushioning, offering a blend of comfort and durability for everyday wear. A potential caveat is that while cotton offers comfort, it may require more care than synthetic materials in wet conditions.

FAQs
What are the primary materials used in the DC Hyde Sneaker?
The primary material for the upper is textile, specifically cotton. The sole technology incorporates EVA for cushioning.
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
While they feature vulcanized construction, the Hyde Sneaker is primarily designed for casual wear and light recreational activities. For professional skateboarding, specialized skate shoes with enhanced durability and grip are recommended.
How do I clean the cotton upper?
Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to clean the cotton upper. Avoid excessive water or harsh chemicals. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What does 'IMPACT-I Inflexion Technology' mean?
This refers to DC Shoes' specialized sole technology designed to absorb impact, providing enhanced cushioning and durability for the wearer.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The cotton upper is not inherently water-resistant. While they can handle light moisture, they are not recommended for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions.
How do I ensure a secure fit?
Utilize the Ghillie lacing system to adjust the tightness across the foot. Ensure the laces are tied securely but comfortably.
What other colors or sizes are available for the Hyde Sneaker?
The DC Hyde Sneaker is available in other colors and sizes. Please refer to the product listing or DC Shoes' official website for a full range of options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the Ghillie laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if the shoe requires a break-in period.
Discomfort after short wear
Ensure the laces are properly adjusted to provide support without constricting. Check that the EVA insole is correctly positioned. If discomfort persists, the fit might not be suitable for your foot type.
Stains on the cotton upper
For minor stains, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, test a small, inconspicuous area with a mild detergent solution before applying it more broadly. Rinse with a damp cloth and air dry.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or the insole. Try removing the insole and ensuring both it and the shoe interior are completely dry. Talcum powder can sometimes help reduce squeaking.
