FAQs

What is the primary material of the Onitsuka Tiger EDR 78?

The primary material for the upper of the Onitsuka Tiger EDR 78 'Olive Green White' is genuine leather.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These shoes are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for intense athletic activities like running. They offer shock absorption but lack the specialized support required for running.

How should I clean the olive green leather?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Always allow to air dry.

What does 'EDR 78' stand for?

EDR 78 refers to the specific model and design lineage of this Onitsuka Tiger shoe, often referencing its origins or inspiration from the year 1978.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather can be treated with protector spray, these shoes are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.

What other colors or sizes are available?

The Onitsuka Tiger EDR 78 series is available in various colorways and sizes. Please check the product listings for other available options.

Do the shoes offer good arch support?

The EDR 78 provides moderate cushioning and support suitable for everyday wear. For individuals requiring significant arch support, insoles or custom orthotics may be considered.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, try a leather-specific cleaner or conditioner. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. While designed for traction, some polished or wet surfaces may still pose a slipping risk. Periodically check the sole tread for wear.

Discomfort after initial wear

New leather shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the correct size has been chosen.
