FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Tai-Chi Nm series generally runs true to size, but because of the slim profile, some users prefer a half-size up if they have wider feet.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers meant for everyday casual wear and not for high-intensity athletic running.
How do I clean the white leather parts?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water, wiping gently and then air-drying out of direct sunlight.
Do these provide arch support?
They feature a minimalist design with standard cushioning; they do not provide heavy orthopedic or high-arch support.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are generally fixed, but if needed, they can be carefully removed for thin aftermarket replacements.
Are these trainers unisex?
While listed for men, the Tai-Chi Nm features a classic design that is popular across genders provided the correct size conversion is used.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'parallel' or 'loose' style to relieve pressure.
Scuff marks on the white surface
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle soft-bristled brush with a mild cleaning solution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Onitsuka Tiger trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines. Given the white finish, it is recommended to apply a protective water-and-stain repellent spray immediately after unboxing. For routine maintenance, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the materials. For stubborn stains, use a specialized sneaker cleaner suitable for leather or synthetic textiles. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources to preserve the shape and material integrity.
