FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

The Mexico 66 are designed primarily as lifestyle and casual trainers, inspired by running shoes. While they offer comfort for walking and general wear, they are not engineered for serious athletic training or competitive running.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a dry suede brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a lightly damp cloth can be used with caution. Always allow the suede to air dry completely away from heat.

What is the main difference between this model and other Onitsuka Tiger shoes?

The Mexico 66 is one of Onitsuka Tiger's most iconic models, known for its classic, retro design that debuted in 1966. It features a distinctive slim silhouette and the signature Tiger Stripes, offering a blend of vintage style and everyday comfort.

Is the 'Airy Green' colorway true to size?

Based on typical sizing for this model, they are generally true to size. However, it is always recommended to check the specific size chart provided by the retailer and consider trying them on if possible, as individual fit can vary.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The suede material is not inherently waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a suede protector spray can offer some water resistance.

What are the primary materials used in the Mexico 66?

The primary materials typically include a suede and leather upper, a cushioned textile lining, and a rubber outsole for traction.

Troubleshooting

Suede becoming stiff or discolored

Ensure suede is cleaned regularly with a suede brush and avoid over-wetting. Use specialized suede cleaners sparingly if needed.

Shoe losing shape

Stuff shoes with paper or shoe trees when not in use to help maintain their form. Avoid crushing them in storage.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Ensure laces are tied without excessive tension.

Traction feels reduced

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt. Inspect for excessive wear; consider replacement if significantly worn down.
