What is the primary material used in the Mexico 66 trainers?

The primary material is premium leather, offering durability and a classic look.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

No, the Mexico 66 trainers are designed for lightweight comfort and casual activities. They do not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for marathon running.

How should I clean the white leather parts?

Gently wipe the white leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner suitable for white footwear, testing it on a small area first.

What does 'Mexico 66' refer to?

The 'Mexico 66' designation refers to a specific iconic model in the Onitsuka Tiger heritage line, first released in the mid-1960s and known for its distinctive design.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The Mexico 66 series is available in a wide variety of colorways. This guide specifically focuses on the White/Blue model.

Can I wear these with socks?

What is the return policy if the size is incorrect?

Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for information on exchanges or returns due to incorrect sizing.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring not to overtighten. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the width is suitable for your foot. Wearing them for short periods initially can help break them in.

Leather appears dry or scuffed

Use a leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for white and blue leather to restore moisture and cover minor scuffs. Test any product on an inconspicuous area first.

Slipping on certain surfaces

While the sole is designed to be slip-resistant, extremely wet or oily surfaces can still pose a hazard. Ensure the sole is clean and dry. For enhanced grip in challenging conditions, consider specialized shoe treatments if available.

Color transfer from blue to white areas

This can occur, especially when new or wet. Ensure shoes are dry and consider applying a color protector spray. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks or clothing when the shoes are damp.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Upon receiving your shoes, ensure they are the correct size. Adjust the laces to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. The internal construction is designed for immediate wearability.

Compatibility: The Mexico 66 trainers are designed for general adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. While suitable for light athletic activities, they are not specialized for sports requiring heavy ankle support or specific performance cushioning.

Care: To maintain the condition of your leather trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the leather.
  2. Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the leather to crack or warp.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help guard against water and stains, especially for the white leather components.
  4. Storage: When not in use, store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
