FAQs

What are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers made of?

These trainers are primarily made of leather and suede, with a rubber sole.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

While inspired by track shoes, they are best suited for casual wear and light activities due to their design and comfort focus.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoes?

Use a specialized suede brush or eraser for regular cleaning. For tougher stains, a dedicated suede cleaner is recommended.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain, as suede can be sensitive to water. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.

What does 'Vintage' refer to in the product name?

The 'Vintage' designation refers to the design aesthetic, which is inspired by the original classic models of the Mexico 66, rather than indicating the age of the product itself.

Is the sizing consistent with other Onitsuka Tiger models?

Generally, sizing is consistent, but it's always recommended to check the specific size guide for the Mexico 66 model and consider personal fit preferences.

What is the main colour of these trainers?

The main colour is White, with secondary Directoire Blue accents and stripes.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks dirty or stained.

Use a suede eraser for light marks or a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Leather sections appear scuffed.

Minor scuffs on leather can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, a matching colour shoe polish might be necessary.

Shoes feel stiff on first wear.

This is common with new leather and suede. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.

Odour inside the shoes.

Ensure feet are dry when wearing. Use deodorizing insoles or baking soda sprinkled inside overnight can help absorb odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from both the leather and suede parts. For stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used on the leather. Suede can be cleaned with a specialized suede cleaner or a suede eraser.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  3. Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially on the suede sections.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
