FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers waterproof?

The Mexico 66 trainers are primarily made of leather and are not inherently waterproof. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions. Using a leather protector spray can enhance their water resistance.

How do I determine the correct size?

This guide specifies a UK 9.5. It is recommended to consult the Onitsuka Tiger size chart for accurate conversions, as sizing can vary between brands. Try them on if possible to ensure a comfortable fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather footwear like the Mexico 66. It can damage the leather, compromise the adhesives, and ruin the shoe's shape.

What is the typical lifespan of Mexico 66 trainers?

With proper care and regular maintenance, the Mexico 66 trainers can last for several years, depending on the frequency and intensity of wear.

Are these suitable for running?

The Mexico 66 is a classic trainer style inspired by athletic heritage but is best suited for casual wear, walking, and light activities. For serious running, specialized running shoes with advanced cushioning and support are recommended.

How do I maintain the leather upper?

Regularly wipe with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Protect with a waterproofing spray.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff.

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to moisturize and soften the material. Ensure it is a product suitable for athletic footwear leather.

Laces are frayed or worn.

Replace the laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Onitsuka Tiger branded laces can be sourced or a suitable alternative can be used.

Soles show signs of wear.

For minor wear, cleaning with a damp cloth may suffice. Significant wear may require professional resoling services, though this is uncommon for casual use.

Discoloration on white accents.

Gently clean the white accents with a specialized shoe cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the leather.
