FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

While comfortable for light activity, the Mexico 66 are primarily designed for casual wear and light training. They lack the advanced support and cushioning needed for serious running.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. The product information lists sizes in UK adult foot sizes. It's recommended to try them on if possible or measure your foot length for accuracy.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, sole, and internal cushioning. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the main difference between the 'Birch' and 'Cactus Green' colors?

The 'Birch' refers to the primary cream-colored base of the sneaker, while 'Cactus Green' highlights the color of the iconic Tiger Stripes and other accent details.

What is the OrthoLite sockliner?

OrthoLite is a brand of insole known for its cushioning, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, contributing to all-day comfort.

Is this a new model or a retro reissue?

The Mexico 66 is an iconic model from Onitsuka Tiger's history, and this particular version offers a vintage aesthetic, often considered a reissue or a modern take on a classic design.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.

Leather shows signs of drying out

Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for sneakers. Follow the product instructions for application.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. For very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution as the serrated sole provides grip but is not infallible.

Discoloration of the upper material

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth and store properly to maintain color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility:

The Mexico 66 are designed for adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel. They are not designed for specialized athletic activities requiring specific footwear support.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners or submerging the shoes in water.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box, away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or material degradation.
  • Leather Care: For the leather components, consider using a specialized leather conditioner periodically to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking.
