FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While comfortable for walking and light play, they are designed as lifestyle sneakers and are not intended for competitive running or sports.
What materials are used in these shoes?
The upper is primarily made from durable leather, and the sole uses an EVA midsole for shock absorption.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, never place your sneakers in a dryer. High heat can warp the materials and ruin the adhesive bonds.
Are they true to size?
Onitsuka Tiger shoes generally fit true to size. Ensure you consult a standard size chart for the UK sizing equivalent provided.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the Mexico 66 series features a versatile design suitable for all children regardless of gender.
How do I protect the leather?
Using a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray can help protect the shoes from minor splashes and surface grime.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use shoe trees or stuff the shoes with paper when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape.
Dirty rubber outsoles
Scrub the soles gently with a soft brush and a mixture of mild detergent and water.
Footbed feels less comfortable over time
Consider replacing the original insoles with aftermarket foam insoles for added cushioning if the shoe is otherwise in good condition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Mexico 66 sneakers, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since these shoes feature leather uppers, avoid machine washing, which can damage the material and adhesives. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush or a dry cloth to remove loose dirt after each use. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring you let them air dry away from direct heat sources. Always store them in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the leather and the foam cushioning.
