Full details

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. They do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for running or intense athletic training.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the product's sizing chart or compare with your usual UK shoe size. These trainers are available in specific adult UK sizes, such as 8.5 as indicated.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather and rubber offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the material and comfort.

What is the 'anti-slip structure'?

This refers to the design of the rubber outsole, which incorporates tread patterns and material properties intended to provide enhanced grip and stability on various surfaces.

How do I clean the gold metallic finish?

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the metallic coating.

Are these trainers unisex?

While this specific listing is for men's sizing (UK 8.5), the Mexico 66 model is generally considered unisex, with various sizes available across different listings.

What is the main difference between this and other Mexico 66 models?

The primary difference is often the colorway and material finish. This 'Gold Metallic' version offers a specific eye-catching aesthetic combined with the classic Mexico 66 silhouette and features.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If slightly tight, wear with thin socks and allow the leather to naturally adapt over a few wears. Consider a leather stretching spray if persistent.

Creasing on the leather

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoes excessively during wear.

Metallic finish losing shine

Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

While designed with an anti-slip structure, performance can vary. Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. For added grip on smooth surfaces, consider a shoe repair shop for sole treatment.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.

  4. Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to guard against stains and water damage, especially for the metallic finish.
