Full details
The DC Shoes Court Graffik is designed for men seeking a reliable, skate-inspired trainer that balances heavy-duty construction with essential daily comfort. Featuring a durable leather and synthetic upper combined with a classic lace-up design, these shoes provide excellent support and traction for both skating and casual wear; however, users should note that the chunky, padded aesthetic may feel heavier than minimalist contemporary sneakers.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, the foam padding and EVA sock liner make them comfortable enough for all-day casual wear.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The Court Graffik generally fits true to size, but since they are padded, if you prefer a roomier feel, consider the fit against your current skate shoes.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machine cycles can damage the structural integrity, glue, and leather material. Hand cleaning is recommended.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are made of leather and synthetic materials which offer some resistance, but they are not fully waterproof.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from a blend of durable leather and synthetic materials.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
The EVA sock liner provides moderate support, but the cupsole construction is primarily focused on impact protection and stability.
Troubleshooting
Tongue sliding to the side
Ensure the laces are threaded through the loop on the tongue to keep it centered.
Leather appearing scuffed after skating
Regularly apply a leather conditioner or cream to keep the material supple and mask light scuffs.
Insole comfort fading
The included EVA sock liner can be removed and replaced with custom orthotics if you require specific arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Court Graffik trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: As these are constructed with leather and synthetic materials, wear them for short durations initially to allow the padding to contour to your feet.
- Lacing: Use the lace-up system to adjust tension according to your preference for a tighter performance fit or a looser casual fit.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt from the leather/synthetic upper using a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Moisture: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb excess moisture and let them air dry naturally; do not use direct heat sources like radiators.
