FAQs
Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for athletic performance?
The Mexico 66 trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While comfortable for light activities, they are not engineered for high-impact sports or professional athletic training.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or Onitsuka Tiger's official sizing guide. Measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the UK sizing conversions. The provided size is UK 9.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and ensure comfort.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every few months, or when it appears dry. This helps maintain its suppleness and prevents cracking. Use a conditioner specifically designed for leather footwear.
What is the main difference between the Mexico 66 and other Onitsuka Tiger models?
The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its iconic, streamlined silhouette, heritage design elements, and the signature Onitsuka Tiger stripes. It's one of their most historically significant and popular models.
Are these trainers unisex?
The product information indicates these are men's trainers. However, many customers choose to wear unisex styles based on fit and personal preference.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, wear them with thin socks for a short period to allow the leather to stretch slightly. Using a shoe tree can also help.
Leather creasing excessively
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain shape.
Slight discoloration after cleaning
This may occur if too much water or the wrong cleaning product was used. Allow the shoe to dry completely and try using a leather conditioner suitable for the white and silver colors. Test any product on an inconspicuous area first.

Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather.

- Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried.
