FAQs

What is the primary material of the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers?

The primary material is leather, with suede overlays on the heel and forefoot panel.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. They feature AMPLIFOAM™ cushioning in the heel but are not engineered for high-impact sports or professional running.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a dedicated suede brush or eraser to clean the suede. Avoid using water, and allow the shoe to air dry if it gets wet.

What does 'Birch Peacoat' refer to in the colorway?

'Birch' refers to the main color of the upper, while 'Peacoat' denotes the blue accents on the signature stripes and heel tab.

Is there significant arch support in these shoes?

The Mexico 66 features a classic thin sole with some cushioning in the heel. They do not offer pronounced built-in arch support and are best suited for individuals who do not require specialized orthotic features.

What is the typical fit of the Mexico 66 series?

The Mexico 66 generally has a snug, true-to-size fit. It's recommended to consult size charts and consider trying them on if possible.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather can offer some protection, it is not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to protect them with a suitable spray.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing prematurely

Ensure proper fit. Avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.

Suede losing texture

Gently brush suede with a suede brush. Avoid getting suede wet; if it does, let it air dry completely before brushing.

Discoloration of white sole

Clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be effective, but use with caution to avoid damaging the shoe material.

Reduced grip over time

Check the outsole for embedded debris and clean if necessary. If wear is significant, consider professional advice on sole replacement if available.
