FAQs
Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?
The Mexico 66 are inspired by running shoes and offer comfort for everyday wear. However, they are not designed as performance running shoes for intense training or competition. They are best suited for casual use and light athletic activities.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically available on their website or product pages. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart. Many users find them to fit true to size, but personal preference can vary.
What materials are the Mexico 66 typically made from?
The classic Mexico 66 models often feature a combination of leather and suede overlays on a textile or synthetic base. Specific material composition can vary by colorway and release.
Can I wash my Mexico 66 trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers, as this can damage the materials, especially leather and suede, and affect the shoe's structure. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
How long does it take for the shoes to break in?
The break-in period can vary for individuals. Many find them comfortable from the first wear, while others may need a few wears to mold to their feet. Wearing them for short periods initially can help.
Are these trainers unisex?
Yes, the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 series is generally considered unisex, with sizing often available in both men's and women's measurements, or a unified sizing system.
What is the main difference between colorways?
The primary difference between colorways is purely aesthetic, involving different combinations of colors and materials on the upper, sole, and signature stripes. The core design and construction remain consistent.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Try wearing them with thinner socks or allow for a break-in period. If the issue persists, consider a half-size larger if possible.
Discoloration on white/red stripes
For minor marks, use a magic eraser or a specialized shoe cleaner. For deeper stains, consult a professional shoe cleaning service.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes be caused by friction between parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or around the tongue area.
Sole separation
Minor separation can sometimes be addressed with a strong adhesive designed for footwear. For significant issues, contact customer support or a cobbler.
