FAQs
What is the primary material of the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66?
The primary material for this model is high-quality goat leather, contributing to its luxurious feel and durability.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
While inspired by running shoes, the Mexico 66 is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer comfort for walking and everyday activities but are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
It is recommended to consult the brand's sizing chart and measure your foot. Many users find Onitsuka Tiger trainers to fit true to size, but individual fit can vary.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and the shoe's construction. Hand cleaning with appropriate leather care products is advised.
What does 'Mexico 66' signify?
The 'Mexico 66' name refers to the year the design was originally introduced, inspired by shoes worn during the 1968 Mexico City Olympics.
What is the difference between the Birch/Peacoat and other colorways?
The Birch/Peacoat colorway features a beige goat leather upper with navy blue accents. Other colorways will have different combinations of colors and materials as specified.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof. Using a leather protectant spray can enhance water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, try a leather conditioner or cleaner appropriate for the material. Store shoes with shoe trees to help maintain shape.
Discoloration of light-colored leather
Wipe regularly with a damp cloth. Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for light colors. Protectants can help prevent future staining.
Insole feels uncomfortable after extended wear
The OrthoLite® insole provides cushioning, but individual comfort can vary. Consider using aftermarket insoles if personal preference dictates, ensuring they fit well within the shoe.
