FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

While comfortable for light jogs, the Mexico 66 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer. It does not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for serious running or high-impact athletic activities.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

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

The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its iconic striped design, thin sole, and heritage track-and-field inspiration. Other models may feature different materials, sole constructions, or design aesthetics reflecting different eras or purposes.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain can damage the leather and affect comfort. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What material are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 made of?

The primary material for the upper of this specific model (Black/White) is leather, complemented by textile elements and a rubber sole.

How should I store my Mexico 66 trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box or a shoe bag can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.

Are these trainers true to size?

Generally, the Mexico 66 runs true to size for most people. However, it is always recommended to check the specific sizing chart provided by the retailer or manufacturer, as fit can vary slightly between individuals.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. Consider using thinner socks or insoles if minor adjustments are needed.

Leather shows scuffs or marks.

For minor scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather eraser. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

The rubber soles are designed for general traction. If you experience slipperiness, ensure the soles are clean. For added grip on specific surfaces, consider aftermarket sole grips.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid soaking the shoes in water. For stubborn stains, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and maintain their shape. Avoid storing in humid conditions.
  • Maintenance: Regularly condition the leather with a suitable leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking. Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from suede or fabric areas if applicable to other colorways.
