Introduction
Thank you for choosing the DVS Women's Comanche skate shoes. These shoes are designed for durability, comfort, and performance in action sports, particularly skateboarding. Featuring a robust construction with a rubber cupsole, reinforced ollie area, leather upper, and ample padding, the Comanche provides support and protection. This manual outlines the proper use and care to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your footwear.
Setup
Upon receiving your DVS Comanche shoes, follow these steps for initial setup:
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the shoes from their packaging. Inspect them for any visible damage or manufacturing defects.
- Lacing: The shoes come pre-laced. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened across the foot to prevent pressure points. The heavy-duty collar and tongue padding are designed to provide extra protection and comfort.
- Initial Fit: Wear the shoes and walk around to assess the fit. The Comanche is known for its comfortable fit, but individual preferences may vary. Some users find these shoes run slightly small; consider this when selecting your size.

Operating (Wearing)
The DVS Comanche shoes are designed for skateboarding and general athletic use.
- Intended Use: These shoes are suitable for skateboarding, casual wear, and other action sports activities. The durable rubber cupsole and reinforced ollie area are specifically engineered to withstand the demands of skateboarding.
- Comfort and Support: The high-impact EVA midsole provides cushioning, while the padded collar and tongue offer ankle support. Ensure your laces are tied securely to maximize support and prevent slippage during activity.

Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life of your DVS Comanche shoes.
- Cleaning the Upper (Leather/Synthetic):
- For light dirt, wipe with a damp cloth.
- For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Gently scrub the affected areas.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material.
- Cleaning the Sole (Rubber):
- Use a brush (e.g., an old toothbrush) and soapy water to clean the rubber sole.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Drying:
- Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature.
- Do not expose to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, tumble dryers) as this can cause materials to crack or shrink.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.

Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common concerns you might encounter:
- Shoes feel too tight:
- Ensure laces are not overtightened.
- Consider that DVS Comanche shoes may run slightly small. If discomfort persists, verify your size against the DVS size guide.
- Lack of arch support:
- While the shoes offer high-impact cushioning, individual arch support needs vary. Custom orthotics can be used to enhance arch support if required.
- Excessive wear in specific areas:
- The Comanche features a reinforced ollie area for skateboarding durability. However, continuous friction from specific activities can lead to wear. Regular inspection and proper maintenance can help identify and address wear early.
