Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Consult the official Onitsuka Tiger sizing chart and compare with your foot measurements. Consider trying them on in-store if possible or checking user reviews for specific fit advice.
Leather appears dry or cracked
Apply a quality leather conditioner to moisturize the material. Ensure the shoes are not exposed to excessive heat or dryness.
Sole separation or wear
Minor separation might be addressed by a professional shoe repairer. Significant wear may indicate the shoes have reached the end of their lifespan for heavy use.
Discoloration from dirt or scuff marks
Clean gently with a damp cloth or a specialized leather cleaner. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can sometimes be used cautiously on smooth leather sections.
