FAQs
What materials are the DC Shoes Stag made from?
The DC Shoes Stag features a combination of upper materials including leather, nubuck, or suede, along with mesh for the collar and lining. Specific colorways may vary. This particular model uses off-white suede with black mesh and leather underlays.
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the DC Shoes Stag is built with features like a sturdy cupsole construction, durable materials, and the trademarked Pill Pattern tread, making them suitable for skateboarding, including professional use.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoes?
For suede, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be applied sparingly, following the product's instructions. It's best to avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
What does 'cupsole construction' mean for performance?
Cupsole construction involves a durable rubber sole that is stitched or cemented to the upper in a 'cup' shape. This offers enhanced cushioning, support, and durability compared to vulcanized soles, making it well-suited for impact absorption.
How can I improve the breathability of the shoes?
The shoes feature medial perforations for natural breathability. For increased airflow, ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, allowing for some air circulation around the foot.
What is the purpose of the molded TPU eyestays?
Molded TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) eyestays are reinforced areas where the laces pass through. They are designed to reduce 'eyestay blowouts,' which is a common issue where the fabric around the eyelets wears out or tears due to lacing pressure.
What is the characteristic tread pattern on the outsole?
DC Shoes utilizes its trademarked 'Pill Pattern' tread on the outsole. This design is engineered to provide excellent grip and durability on a skateboard and various surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing to your preference. Ensure you have selected the correct size; consider thicker or thinner socks for minor adjustments.
Reduced grip on the sole
Clean the Pill Pattern tread with a brush to remove accumulated dirt and debris that may be hindering grip.
Suede material appears dirty or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, consult a suede cleaner product and follow its instructions carefully. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Tongue shifts during wear
Ensure the laces are threaded through any lace loops on the tongue (if present) or tied securely to keep the tongue in place.

Care:
