FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

The Mexico 66 series is inspired by classic running shoes but is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. They are not recommended for high-impact running or competitive athletics.

How do I clean the gold metallic material?

Gently wipe the gold metallic parts with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this could damage the finish.

What is the main difference between low shoes and trainers in this model?

The 'low shoes' typically refer to a lower cut around the ankle, offering a classic sneaker silhouette. 'Trainers' might imply a slightly more robust or sport-inspired design, though the core Mexico 66 aesthetic remains consistent across variants.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Mexico 66 features a relatively flat insole with minimal built-in arch support. Individuals requiring significant arch support may need to use aftermarket insoles.

How should I choose my size?

It is recommended to check the brand's specific size chart. Many users find Onitsuka Tiger shoes to fit true to size, but variations can occur. If possible, try them on in person.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, and they should be dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the warranty period for these shoes?

Warranty information typically varies by retailer. Please refer to the point of purchase or the official Onitsuka Tiger website for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period or exploring professional shoe stretching services if the tightness is significant.

Metallic finish appears scuffed

Light scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a very soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair specialist.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

While designed with anti-slip features, very smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a risk. Ensure the soles are clean and dry. For increased grip on specific surfaces, consider using traction sprays designed for footwear.
