FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes, the Mexico 66 are best considered lifestyle sneakers. They offer comfort for walking and everyday activities but are not designed for serious athletic training or running.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer or Onitsuka Tiger. Generally, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the chart. These trainers are typically true to size.

Can I wash the shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. The leather and other premium materials can be damaged by the washing machine cycle. Always clean them by hand using the care instructions provided.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The primary material for the upper is high-quality goat leather, contributing to the shoe's luxurious feel and aesthetic.

How does the Ortho Lite® insole benefit the wearer?

The Ortho Lite® insole provides excellent cushioning, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, ensuring long-lasting comfort and support underfoot.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, these trainers are not waterproof. The leather and construction are designed for general wear and will not provide protection against heavy rain or submersion in water.

What makes the Mexico 66 a classic model?

The Mexico 66 is a classic due to its iconic design rooted in the brand's heritage from the 1960s, its distinctive stripes, and its enduring popularity as a stylish, comfortable lifestyle sneaker.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. For new shoes, wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in. Consider using thinner socks if the fit is snug.

Leather scuffs or scratches appear

For minor scuffs on leather, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair balm. For deeper scratches, professional leather repair might be necessary.

Soles show signs of wear

Regular cleaning of the soles can help prevent premature wear. For significant sole wear, consult a shoe repair specialist for potential resoling services.

Odors inside the shoes

Remove the insoles and air them out regularly. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes; no setup is required. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: The Mexico 66 trainers are designed for general wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. They pair well with denim, cotton trousers, shorts, and skirts. They are not recommended for high-impact sports or activities requiring specialized footwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather: For the goat leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by a wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
  • Suede/Nubuck (if applicable): If your model has suede or nubuck accents, use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid water on these areas.
  • Insole Care: The Ortho Lite® insole can be removed for airing out. If cleaning is needed, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow to air dry completely.
  • Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box to maintain their shape and protect the materials.
