FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities like walking. They are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic training.

How should I clean my Mexico 66 trainers?

For general cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing. For specific materials like suede or leather, use dedicated cleaners for those materials. Always air dry.

Do these trainers come in different widths?

The Mexico 66 trainers are generally produced in a standard width. Some customers find them to fit narrowly, so it's recommended to try them on if possible or consult sizing charts carefully.

What is the main inspiration behind the Mexico 66 design?

The design is inspired by vintage athletic footwear from the 1960s, specifically drawing from track and field shoe styles prevalent during that era.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the trainers can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the materials, especially suede. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions and ensure they are properly dried if they get damp.

What materials are the Mexico 66 trainers typically made from?

The construction often involves a combination of materials such as leather, suede, and synthetic textiles, providing a balance of durability and retro style.

Troubleshooting

Tight fit or discomfort

Consider wearing thin socks initially and allow the shoes to break in. If the shoes remain too narrow after a few wears, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try sprinkling a little talcum powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, particularly near the insole, to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Discoloration or marks on the material

Address stains promptly. For general dirt, use a damp cloth. For tougher marks on leather, a leather cleaner might be effective. For suede, use a suede brush and eraser, and protect with a suede protector spray.
