FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?

While comfortable for walking and light activity, the Mexico 66 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer. For serious running, specialized running shoes are recommended for optimal support and cushioning.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Onitsuka Tiger or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. The Mexico 66 is unisex, so check the corresponding measurement for your gender if specified.

Can I wash these trainers?

No, these trainers are made of leather and should not be machine washed. Cleaning should be done by hand using a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products.

How durable is the gum rubber sole?

The gum rubber sole is designed for durability and provides good traction for everyday wear. With proper care, it should last for a considerable time.

What is the main difference between the Mexico 66 and other Onitsuka Tiger models?

The Mexico 66 is one of Onitsuka Tiger's most iconic models, known for its slim profile, distinct stripes, and heritage design dating back to 1966. Other models might feature different materials, sole constructions, or more contemporary designs.

How should I store my Mexico 66 trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape. Keeping them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag is also recommended.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but the trainers are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water can damage the leather and affect comfort.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more days. If the issue persists, check if the insole is loose and ensure it's properly seated.

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creasing is normal for leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. Regular conditioning helps maintain the leather's appearance.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

The gum rubber sole provides good traction, but may be less effective on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean; debris can affect grip.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. If discomfort persists, consider using insoles for added cushioning or support.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general casual wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing styles. They are suitable for adults of all genders.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from the leather. For stubborn stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  2. Drying: Allow leather to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or original box, to maintain shape and prevent dust accumulation.
  5. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the leather and sole.
