FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is crafted from a combination of leather, nubuck, or suede, providing a durable and stylish finish.
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the STAG trainers feature a sturdy cupsole construction, a grippy Pill Pattern outsole, and durable upper materials, making them well-suited for skateboarding.
How do I ensure the best fit?
It is recommended to check the size guide and, if possible, try the shoes on before purchasing, as sizing can vary. The UK size 8 is listed for this specific product description.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Spot clean using the care instructions provided.
What does 'medial perforations' mean?
Medial perforations are small holes on the inner side of the shoe that enhance airflow and breathability, helping to keep your feet cooler.
How durable is the injected TPR logo?
The injected TPR logo is designed for durability and adds a sharp visual detail to the shoe's upper, resisting wear and tear.
What is the main benefit of the Pill Pattern tread?
The trademarked Pill Pattern tread is DC Shoes' signature design for superior grip and traction on various surfaces, essential for skateboarding and everyday wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes with thin socks initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using a shoe stretcher if persistent tightness occurs in specific areas.
Laces are wearing out quickly
Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, which can cause premature fraying. Consider replacing them with more durable skate laces if needed.
Reduced grip on the outsole
Clean the outsole thoroughly with a brush to remove any dirt, mud, or debris that may be hindering traction. Check for excessive wear on the Pill Pattern tread.
Pilling or texture damage on suede/nubuck sections
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. Protect with a suede protector spray for future use.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For leather and synthetic parts, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For suede or nubuck, use a specialized suede brush to maintain texture and remove dry dirt. Avoid excessive water.
- Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried.
- Outsole: Regularly check the outsole for embedded debris and clean with a brush.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
