Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during initial wear
The supportive structure may need a short break-in period; try wearing them for shorter intervals initially to allow the materials to conform.
Outer surface accumulating dust/dirt
Use a soft-bristled brush or a dry cloth to gently sweep away debris after every session to prevent buildup.
Laces coming undone
Ensure they are double-knotted if the child is participating in high-intensity activities like skating to keep the fit secure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your DC Trainers involves ensuring the right fit and proper maintenance. Always check that the lace tension is adjusted to your child's preference, as this affects the stability of the shoe. To keep the trainers in good condition: wipe off surface dirt with a soft, dry cloth after skating; for deeper stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could degrade the outer materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can warp the materials over time.
