FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The Onitsuka Tiger Serrano trainers are designed for casual wear and light jogs. They offer comfort and style but are not engineered for the specific support and cushioning required for marathon running.

How do I choose the right size?

It is recommended to consult the Onitsuka Tiger sizing chart. Many customers find it helpful to measure their foot length and compare it to the chart. Some may find it beneficial to size up or down by a half-size depending on personal preference and foot width.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. This can damage the materials, especially the suede accents and the sole's adhesive. Hand wash gently following the care instructions provided.

What is the main difference between Serrano and other Onitsuka Tiger models?

The Serrano model is specifically inspired by 1970s track spikes, characterized by its lightweight nylon upper, unique spiky sole pattern, and reinforced suede details. Other models may focus on different athletic heritage or feature different materials and designs.

How durable is the nylon upper?

The nylon upper is designed to be lightweight and breathable. While durable for everyday use, it is not as resistant to abrasion or tears as some heavier materials might be. The suede reinforcements on the heel and toe add extra durability to common wear points.

What does 'White/Directoire Blue' colorway mean?

This refers to the specific colors used on the shoe. 'White' is the primary color, while 'Directoire Blue' is a secondary color, likely appearing on accents like the stripes or logos. The product description also mentions a 'Blue/Red' accent, suggesting a multi-color combination.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or too loose.

Refer to the official Onitsuka Tiger size chart for accurate measurements. Consider trying on different sizes if possible, as fit can vary. Some users find they need to size up or down half a size from their usual fit.

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher spots, try a suede eraser. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing.

Soles are slippery on certain surfaces.

The textured sole provides grip, but extreme conditions like wet polished floors might reduce traction. Ensure the soles are clean from any mud or debris that could affect grip.

Discoloration on nylon upper.

Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
