FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Onitsuka Tiger Tokuten trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They may not provide the specialized cushioning and support required for marathon running.
How do I clean mud off the leather?
Allow the mud to dry first, then gently brush off as much as possible. Use a damp cloth for residual dirt and a specialized leather cleaner for stubborn stains.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, these trainers are made of leather and should not be put in a washing machine. Hand clean using a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to maintain their shape and protect the material.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
While this guide focuses on the Red and Grey variant, Onitsuka Tiger often releases models in various colorways. Please check with the retailer for available options.
How should I choose my size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. If possible, try them on in-store for the best fit, as sizing can vary between brands and models.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather is not inherently waterproof but can be treated with a leather protector spray to provide some water resistance. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
Troubleshooting
Stiff leather upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to naturally break in and mold to your foot. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Discoloration from water or dirt
Address stains immediately with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Ensure shoes are properly dried away from heat.
Laces becoming worn or frayed
Replace worn laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length and color. Most athletic or shoe stores carry replacement laces.
