Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Mexico 66 Vintage trainers are designed for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good durability, they are not specialized for high-impact running or athletic performance.

For suede, use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first.
What does 'Vintage' mean in the product name?
The 'Vintage' designation refers to the design aesthetic, inspired by classic Onitsuka Tiger models, and the use of materials that contribute to a retro appearance.

Troubleshooting
Leather or suede appears dirty
Use a soft brush to gently remove loose dirt. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather or suede cleaner, following product instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Sizing feels slightly off
Try wearing the trainers with different types of socks. If the fit remains uncomfortable, consider using insoles for minor adjustments or consult sizing charts for future purchases.
Color transfer from stripes or leather
This can occur with new shoes, especially in wet conditions. Allow the shoes to dry completely and avoid wearing them in heavy rain until they have been broken in and are less prone to color transfer.
