FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 true to size?

Generally, the Mexico 66 runs true to size for most people. However, foot shape can vary, so it's recommended to check reviews or try them on if possible. This specific model is UK size 4.5.

Can I wear these trainers for running?

The Mexico 66 is designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer. While suitable for light jogging or walking, they do not offer the advanced cushioning and support required for serious or long-distance running.

How should I clean the black leather?

Wipe the black leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution on the cloth and then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Allow to air dry and consider using a leather conditioner.

What is the main difference between the Mexico 66 and other Onitsuka Tiger models?

The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its slim profile, the distinctive tongue label, and the iconic Tiger Stripes that were introduced with this model. It represents a foundational design in the brand's history.

Is the Black/White colorway suitable for all seasons?

Yes, the Black/White colorway is a classic combination that is suitable for wear year-round. Its neutral tones make it a versatile choice regardless of the season.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. It is best to check the specific warranty terms provided by the seller at the time of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit or professional cleaning may be necessary.

Soles appear dirty or worn

Clean the rubber soles with a damp cloth and mild soap. For worn areas, check for excessive thinning; if significant, professional repair might be considered, though typically they offer good durability.

Discoloration of the white stripes

Use a specialized white shoe cleaner or a magic eraser carefully on the white stripes. Avoid getting cleaning agents on the black leather to prevent staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility:

The Mexico 66 trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are compatible with most casual and athleisure wear. They are not intended for high-impact sports or activities requiring specialized footwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  • Maintenance: For best results, use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag.
