Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 - White Black - Trainers - UK 4.5

The Mexico 66 are primarily designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. While they offer comfort for walking and general movement, they are not engineered with the advanced cushioning and support needed for serious running or high-impact sports.

The trainers should fit snugly but not tightly. There should be a small amount of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. Ensure your heel does not slip excessively when walking.

The Mexico 66 typically features a combination of leather and suede uppers, with a rubber sole. Specific material composition may vary slightly by release.

It is strongly advised not to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and shape of the shoe. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the recommended cleaning method.

The Mexico 66 provides moderate support suitable for casual wear. Individuals requiring significant arch support may benefit from adding aftermarket insoles.

For white areas, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Wipe clean and allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material or color.

The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its iconic slim profile, the distinctive Onitsuka Tiger stripes, and its historical significance as an early track shoe. Other models may feature different designs, materials, or levels of cushioning tailored for specific activities.

Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoes are new, try wearing them for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks or insoles for a snugger fit if needed.

This is normal with regular use. For significant wear affecting grip or comfort, professional resoling might be an option, though not always available or cost-effective for this type of footwear.

Address fresh stains immediately with a damp cloth. For persistent stains, use a mild soap solution or a specialized shoe cleaner suitable for the shoe's material. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
