FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the New York series is designed as a lifestyle trainer for casual walking and daily wear, not for running or intense sports.
How should I clean the white accents?
Use a mild soap and a damp soft cloth to gently rub the white sections. Avoid abrasive sponges that could scratch the material.
Is the sizing standard?
Onitsuka Tiger shoes often follow a slim, classic fit. If you prefer more room for thicker socks, consider how your previous pairs have felt compared to standard athletic shoes.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with orthotic or cushioned alternatives if necessary.
What is the primary material used in the sole?
The sole is made from high-grade, durable rubber designed for traction and longevity on urban surfaces.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels slightly tight after a long day of walking.
Feet often swell during the day; try loosening the laces slightly to accommodate natural volume changes.
Outer sole shows signs of accumulation of urban debris.
Use a soft-bristle brush to dislodge rocks or dirt trapped in the tread patterns of the rubber sole.

Care Instructions
- Surface Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt and debris.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can warp the materials.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper and allow them to air dry naturally; do not place them on heaters or in clothes dryers.
- Maintenance: Avoid machine washing, as the chemical cleaners and agitation can damage the structural adhesives.
