FAQs
What is the primary intended use for the DC Coiler trainers?
The DC Coiler trainers are primarily designed for skateboarding, offering durability, grip, and impact protection. They are also suitable for casual wear.
How do I clean the nubuck material on these shoes?
Use a suede brush or a dry cloth for general cleaning. For stubborn marks, a dedicated nubuck cleaner is recommended. Avoid soaking the shoes.
Are these shoes suitable for running or other sports?
While they offer comfort and support, their design is optimized for skateboarding. They may not provide the specific support or cushioning required for high-impact sports like running.
What does 'mid-puff silhouette' mean?
This refers to the shoe's design, which features a moderate amount of padding, particularly in the tongue and collar, giving it a slightly more substantial and retro look compared to very slim skate shoes.
How does the Pill Pattern tread benefit the user?
The Pill Pattern tread is DC Shoes' trademarked sole design, engineered to provide superior grip and durability, essential for skateboarding performance and traction on various surfaces.
What is the benefit of the moulded TPR eyestays?
Moulded TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) eyestays are more durable than standard eyelets and are designed to reduce the likelihood of laces breaking, especially under the friction experienced during skateboarding.
What materials are used in the upper of the DC Coiler?
The upper is constructed using a combination of grey nubuck for durability and grey mesh for enhanced breathability, accented with yellow details.
Troubleshooting
Laces breaking frequently
Ensure laces are not overtightened. The moulded TPR eyestays help reduce friction, but check for excessive wear or damage to the eyestays themselves.
Reduced grip on the board
Check the sole for debris or wear. Clean the sole with a brush. If the tread is significantly worn down, replacement may be necessary.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. The foam padding in the tongue and collar should provide comfort; break in the shoes with short periods of wear.
Shoe feels too warm
The medial perforations and mesh lining aid breathability. For warmer conditions, ensure socks are moisture-wicking.
