FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

While they have athletic roots and offer comfort, they are best suited for casual wear and light activities like walking or short, light workouts rather than intense running or high-impact sports.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Onitsuka Tiger or the retailer. These trainers generally fit true to size, but personal preference for tightness can vary.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, sole, and overall structure of the shoe.

What are the signature tiger stripes made of?

The tiger stripes are typically made of synthetic material or leather, integrated into the design of the shoe for branding and visual appeal.

How should I store my Mexico 66 trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage. Avoid storing in humid conditions.

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

The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its slim profile, vintage track spike-inspired design, and the distinctive serrated tiger stripes, often paired with a contrasting heel tab.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather cleaner and conditioner. For persistent marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Soles becoming dirty

Use a damp cloth or a specialized sole cleaner to wipe the rubber soles. A soft brush can help remove stubborn dirt.

Discoloration of the upper

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs, a leather recoloring product may help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care:
