FAQs

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

The Mexico 66 are designed with heritage and style in mind, offering good comfort for daily wear. They are not intended for high-impact sports or specialized athletic training.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a soft suede brush for dry dirt and a suede eraser for marks. For tougher stains, use a suede-specific cleaner and always test on a small, hidden area first. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What is the best way to store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and maintain their shape.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Generally, they fit true to size based on standard UK sizing. It's recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible, as foot shape can vary.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

Due to the suede material, these trainers are not ideal for wet conditions as they can be easily stained or damaged by water. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.

What are the iconic Tiger Stripes made of?

The Tiger Stripes are typically made of synthetic leather or a similar durable material, designed to complement the shoe's upper while being easily distinguishable.

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

The Mexico 66 is one of Onitsuka Tiger's most iconic models, known for its slim profile, vintage racing silhouette, and the distinctive parallel lines (Tiger Stripes) that were introduced in 1966. Other models may feature different designs, materials, or performance enhancements.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush away dry dirt with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions. Allow to dry naturally.

Laces are worn or damaged.

Replace with standard shoelaces of a similar length and color. Ensure they are threaded correctly through the eyelets.

Insole feels less cushioned over time.

Consider purchasing separate insoles for added cushioning. The original insoles can sometimes be removed, depending on the shoe's construction.

Color appears faded.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. You can try a suede dye or restorer if the color is significantly faded, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
