FAQs
Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers suitable for running?
The Mexico 66 is a heritage trainer inspired by running shoes but is designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For serious running or high-impact sports, specialized running shoes with advanced cushioning and support are recommended.
How do I determine the right size for these trainers?
It is best to measure your foot length and consult the Onitsuka Tiger size guide available on their official website or retailer sites. Consider if you prefer a snug or slightly looser fit.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

What is the primary material of the Mexico 66 trainers?
The Mexico 66 typically features a combination of leather and synthetic materials for the upper, with a rubber sole.
How often should I clean my Mexico 66 trainers?
Clean them as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or significant wear. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended for maintaining their appearance.
Are these trainers durable for everyday use?
Yes, the Mexico 66 is known for its durable construction, making it suitable for regular daily wear. However, like all footwear, longevity depends on usage and care.
What does 'Ivory/Black' refer to in the color description?
'Ivory/Black' refers to the main color scheme of the trainers. The base color is typically an off-white or cream (Ivory), accented with the brand's signature stripes and other details in Black.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Consult the official Onitsuka Tiger size chart and compare with your foot measurements. If possible, try on a pair before purchasing or check the return policy for exchanges.
Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Try a different lacing knot, or replace the laces with a material that offers better grip.
Initial stiffness or discomfort
Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Gradually increase wear time as the shoes conform to your feet.
Material scuffing or marking easily
Use a specialized leather cleaner or protector spray for the relevant materials. Address minor scuffs with a suitable eraser or cleaning solution designed for footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
As footwear, the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 requires no setup. Upon receiving your new trainers, ensure they are the correct size before wearing.
Compatibility:
These trainers are compatible with a wide range of casual and athleisure attire. They are designed for foot comfort and are suitable for most adult feet, provided the correct size is chosen.
Care:
- Cleaning: For regular cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials.
- Materials: The upper is typically made of leather and synthetic materials. For deeper cleaning of the sole or stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used with a soft brush or cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can cause the materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a breathable shoe bag, to maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and synthetic materials to offer some protection against the elements, though these are not fully waterproof.
