FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

No, the Mexico 66 Sabot is designed for casual wear and light activities like walking. They are not intended for high-performance athletic events.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, a specialized mild leather cleaner can be used. Always allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the main advantage of the Sabot design?

The primary advantage is the slip-on design, which allows for very quick and easy on-and-off compared to traditional lace-up shoes.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

While this guide focuses on the 'White Navy' variant, Onitsuka Tiger often releases their models in various colorways. Please check retailer listings for available options.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but they are not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Using a leather protectant spray can improve water resistance.

What material are the shoes made of?

The upper is primarily made of leather, and they feature a durable rubber sole.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially.

Leather can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them for short periods indoors to break them in. If they remain uncomfortably tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if thin socks are being used.

Soles show signs of wear.

The rubber sole is designed for durability, but excessive wear can occur with prolonged heavy use. For normal wear, this is a sign of use. For significant damage, consult a cobbler for potential repair options.

Difficulty slipping them on.

Ensure your heel is properly positioned and there are no obstructions. Using a shoehorn can assist in slipping them on smoothly. The fit may tighten slightly when new.
