Customer Reviews DC Pure

I returned. I had bought 2 other pairs of the same brand and they fit perfect. These were not long enough so I'll go up a length.

The soul breaks down quickly to reveal the ball on the tread where the ball of your foot is so it feels like you are walking on a golf ball all day.

I’ve worn this shoe for many years and it’s my favorite of all time. This last pair was different. The tongue of the shoe was at least a third bigger and I could barely lace the sneaker up. I had to return the shoe. Not sure if it was a manufacturing issue with that one shoe or that’s the new style. Luckily I have 8 new pairs of the originals in my closet.

This has been my favorite shoe for years but the most recent pair was different. Everything looks the same except the tongue was quite a bit bigger than they used to be. So big that it looked ridiculous all laced up. Different box and tongue but luckily Zappos has a good return policy.

I will have to try the Zappos' 365 day return policy for the first time on this one. Worn about ten times and kills my feet. Shoes are very heavy!

Very uncomfortable shoe, I thought I would save money over the DC Court Graffik SE (terrible choice). The Court Graffik SE is an unbelievably more comfortable shoe.

I liked these shoes a lot at first. But I found them to be hot. They made my feet sweat. I have never had this problem before. I just think they are really thick. I think they are going to Good Will.

I have worn these shoes for several months now. These are my first and probably my last pair of DC. I really like the style but they are not comfortable. If I have to walk more that a mile in them, my feet will blister.

I wear a size 14 had to send them back for a size 15 and then they fit. I wear the outside corners out and for only one month. The corners have already started to wear. l prefer etnies king pin but can't find my size, they last a lot long and are slip resistance. Thanks to Zappos for there free shipping both ways and the kindest people that work there.

I have to be honest, this shoe was not comfortable for me, and I've been a long time buyer of DC shoes mainly because they are so well padded and comfy, but this one is not. I can't walk in these shoes very long before the front half of my foot feels like it's been walking on narrow rolling pins barefoot. Without the rolling pins, it is actually more comfortable to just walk barefoot than wear these, in my opinion. They look great, of course, all DC shoes in this style are eye catching, but I wish I could return them.

So I loved the look of these shoes. Unfortunately you can feel the injection mold of the sole through the inside of the shoes. Meaning the cushion is not very thick or possibly they are not putting in a undersole. In all cases I ended up returning them despite the fact that I loved the look so much. My son who wears the same size as me tried them on and felt the same way that the cushion doesn't exist. Now I bought mine in late April or early May of 2022 it's possible that at an earlier date that these shoes were made different. I would say try them on if you can.

I have worn a size 10.5 medium for the last 20+ years. I first ordered the black/black/white in a 10.5 and they were way too small. After speaking with a Zappos rep on the phone (customer service rocked, as usual!), they saw where some recent reviews left by other customers indicated these shoes run small. I wanted to try a half size bigger (size 11) but this color was out of stock so I tried the black/pirate black in an 11 and the black/black/white in an 11.5 (a full size bigger than what I normally wear). Interestingly, the 11 in black/pirate black fits fantastic but the 11.5 in black/black/white is still way too small and narrow. I ended up keeping the black/pirate black because it was the only one that fit although I would have much rather had the black/black/white.

The fit was fine. The tongue these sneakers is too large or puffy.

The right foot feels like it has a lump in it.

While the designers has foot binders and fetishists in mind, for those of us on the average end of the foot width spectrum, they are akin to the hobbling scene in Misery.

Far too narrow, with parts of the tongue overlapping inside which press into the top of your feet. Designed by obvious sadists, but tasteful sadists

I have worn DC shoes for years, so I was shockingly disappointed by these. They were completely flat with no arch support, and the sole was hard as rock. I couldn't keep them on my feet for even 5 minutes - that's how uncomfortable they were. I am so sorry they just don't make skater shoes like they used to!

These could have used a puffier tongue because the outsoles are so thick and hardly bend at all. It takes a lot of breaking in and you go through the shoe's construction and good looks much faster because you will be tightening these way too much. Such a shame because they look great in pictures but the hardness of the sole make them very uncomfortable and as a result you will have to overtighten your shoes so your foot does not move around in them.

I hate to say, but perhaps the most uncomfortable pair of shoes I've had in a long time. Very stiff and feel a size too small.

These are probably the most UNCOMFORTABLE shoes I have ever bought. TERRIBLE!!!!

I bought these because a girl said they looked cool. I hate them, I wore them once. Absolutely no padding and they feel like they will slide off at the heel. I should have stuck with sketchers.

Fit like other DCs of this similar style. Had to return due to major manufacturing defect...right shoe was missing eyelets! (see photo)

Absolutely some of the worst shoes I have ever had. The soles is so hard, not bending at all. Basically it is like strapping a couple of wooden planks to your feet. Never buying those again!
