Gonçalo
My name is Gonçalo, I’m 16 years old. My friends call me “Peras”, and my birthday is on April 1st — April Fools’ Day.
I love listening to rap, trap, hip-hop and drill. I also enjoy playing football with my friends, and I play for an amateur football team. My clothing style is sportswear. I play video games and love spending time with my friends, whether we’re going out during the day or at night. But what really motivates me every day is knowing that I’m lucky to wake up in the morning. There’s nothing better than knowing I’ve been given another day to keep dreaming and learning.
I’m very loyal to my friends. I’m the kind of person who never leaves anyone behind. I’m very energetic, whether I’m at the gym or playing football. When it comes to school, though, I can be pretty lazy! If I have a dream, I’m persistent and never give up. My dad also says I can be a bit annoying, but I think he’s just joking.
I believe everyone should have the chance to make their dreams come true and become whoever they want to be. I will never give up until I achieve my dreams, and until then, I’ll keep working hard.
My sneakers define who I am. I love a sporty style, especially tracksuits, and I hope to meet people who think like me. Through the sneakers I created, I also want to send the message that everyone should be free to have the style they want without feeling bad about it or giving up because of other people’s opinions.
DiVERGE teaches us to become better people every day, boosts our self-esteem and shows us why we should have empathy for one another. I believe DiVERGE can help change the mindset of people who are still developing their sense of empathy. Everyone who takes part in DiVERGE’s activities is lucky to have that opportunity, and they should make the most of it!

Price Transparency
Transparency matters.That’s why we openly share the costs behind every pair of sneakers. While some elements -like design, testing, office rent and our team’s dedication— aren’t easy to put a number on, we believe you deserve a clear view of what goes into the sneakers you wear.

Yes, you can. Although all our products are made to order and customized by you for you, we accept the return or one free exchange. However, you will need contact us by e-mail (support@diverge-sneakers.com)
Please be aware that this right to exchange only occurs if the products:
- Have not been washed or used;
- Maintain their original features and the packaging is not damaged (packages that have been carefully opened are not considered as damaged);

Returns are not possible if you choose to order two pairs or more in your order. In those cases, we reserve the right to only offer you one free exchange per pair or, at least, charge you for the return of the sneakers you have ordered and wish to return. As a brand that wants to try to produce only what it sells to have a minimal impact in the environment, we want to disincentivize those who order several pairs to see which one they like the most but always planned to keep only one.
Returns are also not applicable if you choose to order a pair from our Creators Collection. In those cases, we reserve the right to only offer free exchanges.
Returns are also not applicable if you choose to order a pair from our Outlet. In those cases, we reserve the right to only offer paid exchanges.

I received a defective product. What should I do?
We guarantee the satisfaction of our customers. Therefore, if you feel that we have sent you a defective product, please notify us regarding the defect through support@diverge-
CARE:
Plain Leather: Apply a thin layer of leather balm and once it’s dry, gently brush to keep the finish of the leather always in good conditions. Opt for softer hog bristles to make sure you don’t damage your sneakers. A leather protector spray is also an option to consider.
Suede: Use a brush to gently remove any dirt or dust. Brush in the direction of the fabric’s grain to avoid damaging it. Dry stains can be removed by using a white or brown gum eraser. If it doesn't work we advise you to visit your local cobbler and get additional advice.
Nubuck: Nubuck cloths are the best option to remove dirt and shiny spots. Wipe in several directions using circular motions and make sure you cover the entire nap area.
Rubber Soles: Clean the dirt with a dampened cloth and carefully soak the sole in a mixture of water and dishwashing soap. Make sure you don’t soak the upper part! Use a toothbrush with the mixture to scrub your soles. Once it’s done, dry the sneakers using a cloth.
