FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 true to size?

Sizing can vary slightly. It's recommended to check customer reviews for the specific colorway or consult the Onitsuka Tiger size guide. Many users suggest going half a size up if you have wider feet.

What material are the Mexico 66 trainers made of?

The Mexico 66 trainers typically feature a premium leather upper with synthetic or rubber accents and soles.

Can I wear these for running?

These trainers are best suited for casual wear and light athletic activities like walking or very light jogging. They are not designed for serious running or high-impact training.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

For suede parts, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a suede cleaner and eraser can be used cautiously. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the leather and suede materials are not inherently waterproof. They can be treated with a water-repellent spray for some protection, but they are not designed for wet conditions.

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

The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its iconic streamlined silhouette, thin sole, and the signature Onitsuka Tiger stripes, often featuring a contrasting heel tab. It represents a classic heritage design.

How should I store my Mexico 66 trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keeping them in their original box or using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape and condition.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction. Try sprinkling a little talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or between the tongue and laces. Ensure the laces are not overly tight.

Leather creasing excessively

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and ensure proper storage. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape.

Color transfer from stripes

New shoes, especially in certain colorways, might have a slight risk of color transfer. It's advisable to avoid wearing them with light-colored socks or trousers until they have been worn a few times or treated with a color protectant spray.
