FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes, the Mexico 66 are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They lack the advanced cushioning and support needed for serious athletic training or long-distance running.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. The product information indicates UK adult sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the chart for the best fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

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

What is the primary material of the Mexico 66?

The primary material for this variant is leather, featuring the signature Onitsuka Tiger stripes.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not inherently waterproof. While leather offers some water resistance, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions. Applying a water-repellent spray can offer additional protection.

How do I clean the red and white stripes?

Use a soft damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe the stripes, being careful not to scrub too hard, and then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

The leather may need a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. Consider using thicker socks for a snugger fit or a shoe stretcher if needed.

White stripes are getting dirty.

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft brush or cloth to gently clean the stripes. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Soles feel slippery.

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. For increased grip on specific surfaces, consider a sole grip enhancer product designed for footwear.

Leather appears dry or scuffed.

Apply a leather conditioner or cream to rehydrate the material. For scuffs, a matching coloured shoe polish can help conceal minor marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers require no assembly or setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are available in various UK adult sizes, ensuring a good fit for many individuals.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Gently clean the trainers with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning agents, especially on the leather and signature stripes.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray suitable for the materials used to help repel water and stains.
