FAQs

Are these shoes good for running marathons?

The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 are designed for style and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced cushioning and support would be more appropriate.

How do I clean the red stripes?

Clean the red stripes gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material or color.

What is the main difference between this model and other trainers?

The Mexico 66 is celebrated for its iconic, retro design, premium leather construction, and versatile rubber sole, blending classic style with everyday functionality.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and the structure of the shoe.

What does 'Mexico 66' refer to?

The name refers to the year the shoe was first introduced, which was at the 1968 Olympic Games trials in Mexico.

Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?

The fit can vary. While leather offers some flexibility, individuals with very wide feet may find them snug. Trying them on is recommended if possible.

What is the material of the sole?

The sole is made of durable rubber, providing superior traction and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Leather will stretch slightly over time with wear. You can also try wearing thicker socks or using a shoe stretcher for a short period.

Squeaking noise from sole

This can sometimes happen with new rubber soles. It may resolve with wear. Ensure the sole is clean and dry.

Discoloration on leather

Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Poor grip on smooth surfaces

Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from debris. If wear is significant, the grip may be reduced over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Simply unbox and they are ready for use. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: While designed with tennis in mind, they are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic wear. They are suitable for adults.

Care:

  • Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to help them retain their shape and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to guard against water and stains.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to maintain shape and protect the material.
