FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 good for running?

While inspired by athletic heritage, the Mexico 66 are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers for casual wear and walking, not for high-impact running or athletic training.

How do I determine my correct size?

It is recommended to try the shoes on if possible, as fit can vary. Refer to the brand's sizing chart and consider your typical shoe size in trainers.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, suede, and sole construction.

What is the main material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from durable leather, with suede paneling for added detail and texture.

How should I care for the suede parts?

Use a suede brush to clean and maintain the suede. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet and use a suede-specific protector if desired.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

The Mexico 66 provides a standard level of support suitable for casual wear. For those requiring significant arch support, insoles or orthotics may be considered.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes around the house with thin socks to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks initially for a snugger fit if the shoes are slightly loose.

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a suede cleaning guide for specific spot treatments.

Leather upper scuffs easily

Regularly clean and condition the leather to maintain its appearance. Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth or leather conditioner.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber sole provides good traction, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean of debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless, retro design that pairs well with various casual outfits.
  • Durable construction with a leather upper for extended wear.
  • Offers good traction and stability due to the classic rubber sole.
  • Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear.
  • Iconic branding with signature stripes.

Cons

  • May require breaking in for optimal comfort.
  • Limited water resistance due to leather and suede materials.
  • Not designed for high-impact athletic performance.
  • Sizing may vary, recommending trying on before purchasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box. Compatibility is high with casual wear, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure outfits.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Cleaning the Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Sole Maintenance: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth. Ensure they are dry before storing.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
