FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Mexico 66 features a retro running silhouette and offers cushioning for comfort, but they are primarily designed for casual wear and light activity, not for intensive athletic training.
How do I clean the metallic gold leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner designed for metallic finishes may be used cautiously.
What is the main color of these trainers?
The main color is Gold, with secondary White accents, including the iconic Tiger stripes and branding.
What material are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 made from?
The upper is crafted from premium calf leather.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated with a protector spray, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain as leather can be damaged by excessive moisture.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The shoes should feel snug but not uncomfortable. Ensure there is a little room in the toe box, and your heel does not slip excessively. Refer to sizing charts and try them on if possible.
What is the product SKU?
The SKU for this specific variant (UK 8) is THL7C2-9401-80.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.
Leather scuff marks
For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, consult a specialist leather care product or professional cleaner.
Traction feels reduced
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Dirt or excessive wear can impact grip.
