FAQs

What is the primary material of the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 'Year of the Snake' trainers?

The primary material is high-quality leather for the upper, with a rubber sole.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense athletic activity?

No, the Mexico 66 is designed as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe, not for high-impact sports.

How do I clean the cream-colored leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and always test on a small, hidden area first.

Do these trainers come in other colors besides cream?

This specific 'Year of the Snake' variant is featured in a cream colorway. However, the general Mexico 66 line is available in many other colors.

What does 'Year of the Snake' signify?

This refers to a special edition release inspired by the Chinese zodiac sign, featuring unique design elements related to the snake motif.

How should I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart and consider your personal fit preferences. Measuring your foot length can help ensure accuracy.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather can withstand light moisture, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and to dry them thoroughly if they get wet.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort after initial wear

Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly.

Scuffs or marks on the leather

Use a suitable leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a cream polish matching the shoe color may help.

Laces becoming worn

Replace laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length and color. This is a simple and common maintenance task.

Slight color transfer onto socks

This can occasionally happen with new leather dyes. Ensure the shoes are fully dry. If persistent, consider a leather sealant spray after testing.
