FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Slip-Ons true to size?

Sizing can vary between individuals. While many find them true to size, it's recommended to check the brand's sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible, especially if you are between sizes or have wide feet.

Can I wear these shoes for running or sports?

The Mexico 66 Slip-On is designed for casual wear and comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities as they lack the specialized support and cushioning required for sports.

How do I clean the 'Birch/Midnight' colorway?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, a mild leather cleaner can be used carefully. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.

What material are the shoes made of?

The upper is typically made of leather, with signature synthetic stripes and a rubber sole.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

They feature a cushioned footbed for general comfort, but they do not offer specialized arch support for conditions requiring orthopedic assistance.

How do I care for the leather to prevent damage?

Regularly wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid exposure to excessive moisture and direct heat. Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.

Are there other color options available?

Onitsuka Tiger offers the Mexico 66 model in various colorways and styles, including lace-up versions. Availability may vary.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or stiff

Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your feet. You can also try wearing thicker socks around the house to gently stretch them.

Laces seem unnecessary (slip-on feature)

The laces are often for aesthetic or a snugger fit adjustment. If you prefer a pure slip-on feel, you can tuck the laces in or tie them loosely and forget them.

Creasing on the leather upper

Some creasing is natural with leather as it flexes. Ensure proper storage and avoid over-stuffing to minimize excessive creasing.

Slight slipping on smooth surfaces

The rubber sole provides traction, but like most shoes, they may be less grippy on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure soles are clean for best performance.

  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Mexico 66 Slip-On requires no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed as unisex casual footwear. They pair well with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, chinos, and casual dresses. They are not intended for use with formal wear or high-performance athletic gear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: For the leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid soaking the shoes in water. For stubborn stains, a dedicated leather cleaner may be used sparingly, following product instructions.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and damage.
