FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Vintage suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like serious running.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a suede brush to clean off dirt and restore the texture. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the best way to store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box or a dust bag can help maintain their condition and prevent damage.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Sizing can vary slightly. It is recommended to check customer reviews for specific feedback on sizing or consult the brand's official size chart. Many find them to fit true to size, but some may prefer to size up or down depending on foot width.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather and suede offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and staining. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.

What does 'Vintage' mean in the product name?

The 'Vintage' designation refers to the design aesthetic, which is inspired by classic Onitsuka Tiger models from the past. It indicates a retro style rather than the age of the product itself.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially and gradually break them in. If persistent, consider a larger size or stretching methods specific for leather/suede.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Apply a suede protector after cleaning.

White leather gets scuffed

Try a gentle leather cleaner or a magic eraser for minor scuffs. For deeper marks, professional shoe restoration might be needed.

Sole becoming detached

Minor detachments can sometimes be repaired by a cobbler. For significant damage, contact the retailer or manufacturer.
