FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 good for running?

While inspired by athletic heritage, the Mexico 66 is primarily a lifestyle sneaker designed for comfort and style. They are not recommended for high-intensity running or specialized athletic training.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the Onitsuka Tiger size chart, typically available on the product page or brand website. It's advised to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Many users find they fit true to size, but personal preference for snugness can vary.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66. This can damage the leather, suede, and the overall construction of the shoe. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and appropriate cleaners is the preferred method.

What is the main difference between the blue and beige colorways?

The primary difference is the color. The blue variant features blue as the dominant color with contrasting stripes, while the beige variant uses beige as the base. Both typically share the same construction and materials.

How durable are the rubber soles?

The Mexico 66 features a classic rubber tread designed for durability in everyday use. While robust, excessive wear from rigorous activities can shorten their lifespan.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Mexico 66 provides basic cushioning. For individuals requiring significant arch support, adding an aftermarket insole might be beneficial.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try loosening or tightening the laces. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Uneven wear on the sole

Ensure you are wearing the correct size and consider your walking gait. For significant unevenness, consult a shoe repair specialist.

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove light dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully.
