FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 are inspired by running shoes but are primarily designed for casual wear. They offer comfort for walking and daily activities but are not recommended for intense athletic training or competitive running.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. These trainers are listed in UK men's sizes. Consider your usual fit and if you prefer a snug or looser feel.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, these trainers should not be machine washed. The leather and construction can be damaged by a washing machine. Cleaning should be done by hand using a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products.

What is the material of the Mexico 66 trainers?

The upper is made of leather, featuring the signature synthetic stripes. The midsole is cushioned for comfort, and the outsole is made of durable rubber.

How do I maintain the black and yellow color?

Clean regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For the yellow stripes, use a mild cleaner if necessary, and avoid abrasive materials. Protectant sprays can help maintain the leather's finish.

What does 'Mexico 66' refer to?

The 'Mexico 66' name refers to the year this iconic design was first released, marking a significant moment in Onitsuka Tiger's heritage.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try wearing them for a few days to break them in, or apply talcum powder to the inside sole.

Difficulty cleaning stubborn marks

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Laces wear out or break

Replace laces with standard athletic shoe laces of a similar length. Many retailers offer replacement laces.

Sole shows signs of wear

Ensure you are not using the trainers for activities beyond casual wear. For minor wear, shoe repair services might offer sole maintenance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: The Mexico 66 trainers are designed for casual wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and casual trousers.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather can be used sparingly.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight if they become wet.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the suede or leather panels.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.
