FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger MEXICO 66 suitable for running?

While they offer comfort for walking and casual wear, the MEXICO 66 are primarily lifestyle trainers and not designed for serious running. They lack the advanced cushioning and support features of dedicated running shoes.

How do I choose the right size?

It is recommended to consult the sizing chart provided by Onitsuka Tiger. As they are made of leather, they may have a snug fit initially but should conform to your foot over time. Trying them on if possible is the best approach.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, washing these shoes in a machine is not recommended. The leather and construction can be damaged by the washing process. Hand clean using the methods described in the care instructions.

What is the main difference between the MEXICO 66 and other Onitsuka Tiger models?

The MEXICO 66 is one of Onitsuka Tiger's most iconic and historically significant models, known for its sleek silhouette, dual-toned tiger stripes, and introduction of the heel tab. Other models may feature different designs, materials, or intended uses.

How durable is the leather used in these trainers?

The premium leather used is chosen for its durability and aesthetic qualities. With proper care and maintenance, the leather will hold up well to regular wear.

Do these shoes come in different widths?

Typically, the MEXICO 66 are offered in a standard width. If you require wider fitting shoes, it's advisable to check specific product descriptions or explore other brands that offer varied width options.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

This is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use to maintain shape. Avoid overly tight lacing.

Slight discoloration on leather

Use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for the shoe's color. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Traction feels less secure on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides grip, but like most non-specialized footwear, traction on very wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Interior feels less breathable

Ensure socks are made of breathable materials. Allow shoes to air out between wears. Check for any debris inside that might obstruct airflow.

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: The MEXICO 66 is designed as a lifestyle trainer and is compatible with a wide range of casual attire. It is not intended for specialized high-performance sports.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: Allow leather shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically use a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
  4. Lining: To clean the interior, use a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
