FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Onitsuka Tiger New York series typically runs true to standard UK sizing for men.

Can these be worn for running?

These are primarily lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for long-distance running or high-impact training.

How do I best clean the white sections?

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh bleach which can yellow the material.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing for custom orthotic inserts if needed.

Are these suitable for wet weather?

While they provide good grip, they are not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to protect the upper materials.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the upper material

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather or synthetic upper maintain its structural integrity.

Outsole losing traction due to debris

Regularly inspect the tread and use a small brush or toothpick to dislodge pebbles or mud stuck in the grooves.

General odor buildup

Remove the insoles to air them out separately and use odor-absorbing sachets inside the shoes overnight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design suitable for smart-casual outfits
  • High-grip rubber outsole for urban environments
  • Lightweight construction for extended comfort
  • Timeless design that resists passing trends

Cons

  • Not intended for specialized high-impact athletic training

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Onitsuka Tiger trainers maintain their condition, consistency in care is key.

Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard adult male sizing. For the best experience, ensure your socks provide adequate moisture-wicking properties to maintain internal freshness.

Care Instructions:

  1. Spot Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper materials.
  2. Stain Removal: For surface stains, wipe gently with a damp, lint-free cloth and mild soap.
  3. Avoid Submersion: Never machine wash or soak the trainers, as this can degrade the adhesive and shape.
  4. Air Dry: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the rubber to warp.
