FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Slip-On is designed for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good support for walking, they are not intended for high-impact sports or performance running.

How do I clean the yellow suede?

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner with a cloth, working gently. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and allow the shoes to air dry completely.

What is the main material of the shoe?

The primary upper material is suede, with textile elements and a rubber sole.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

The Mexico 66 Slip-On model is available in various colorways. This guide specifically focuses on the 'Yellow Black' variant.

How does the slip-on design affect the fit compared to lace-up models?

The slip-on design offers convenience but less adjustability. The fit relies on the elasticated parts and the natural shape of the shoe. It's recommended to ensure your size is correct for a snug but comfortable fit.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof. It is advisable to protect them from rain and moisture, and consider using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for suede.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thin socks for short periods. If still uncomfortable, consider if an alternative size would be more suitable.

Suede color is fading

Exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Store shoes away from direct light and consider using a suede protector spray with UV inhibitors.

Scuff marks on suede

Gently use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove light scuffs. For deeper marks, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner may be necessary.

Difficulty slipping shoes on

Ensure the heel collar is fully open. Sometimes a shoe horn can assist in putting them on without damaging the heel counter.
