FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 true to size?

Sizing can vary slightly. It's recommended to check customer reviews for specific feedback on sizing for the colorway you are interested in, and to measure your feet against the brand's sizing chart.

Can I wear these for running or sports?

The Mexico 66 is primarily a lifestyle sneaker. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not designed with the specific support and cushioning needed for intensive athletic activities like running or court sports.

How do I clean the yellow leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Mexico 66 generally has a standard width. Individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. Consider trying them on in person if possible, or looking for reviews that specifically address width.

What is the significance of the 'Kill Bill' reference?

The 'Kill Bill' reference pertains to a specific collaboration or inspiration where the yellow and black Mexico 66 model was notably worn by the character The Bride in the movie 'Kill Bill: Vol. 1'. This has made that particular colorway highly iconic.

How durable are the Mexico 66 trainers?

Constructed with leather uppers and rubber outsoles, they are designed for everyday durability. However, like all footwear, longevity depends on usage and proper care.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. If they are leather, they will stretch slightly with wear. Consider using a shoe stretcher or having them professionally stretched if the tightness is significant.

Color transfer from the black stripes to socks or skin

This can sometimes occur with darker dyes, especially when new or wet. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the issue persists, a fabric protector spray on the inside of the shoe might help, or wear darker socks.

Outsole or stitching appears to be coming undone

Minor separation can sometimes be addressed with a strong adhesive designed for footwear. For significant damage, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can be caused by friction within the shoe. Try adding talcum powder under the insole or checking if the laces are too tight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These are ready-to-wear footwear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for your foot before wearing.

Compatibility: The Mexico 66 is a unisex shoe, designed for adult wear. It is compatible with a wide range of casual attire. It is not compatible with performance athletic footwear standards.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For the leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn stains, a leather cleaner specifically designed for yellow and black leather can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape when not in use.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray suitable for sneakers to guard against water and stains, especially for the leather components.
