FAQs

Are these shoes good for running?

The Mexico 66 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light athletic activities. They are not specialized running shoes and may lack the cushioning and support required for serious running.

How do I clean the yellow leather?

Gently wipe the yellow leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a cleaner specifically designed for yellow leather or light-colored leather, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the main color of this model?

The main color of this specific model (DL408-0490) is Yellow, with Black as a secondary color, particularly on the iconic stripes.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The Mexico 66 generally has a slimmer profile. While they can accommodate some feet, individuals with very wide feet might find them snug. Trying them on or checking reviews focusing on fit is recommended.

What does 'Mexico 66' refer to?

'Mexico 66' refers to the year this iconic design was first released, marking it as one of Onitsuka Tiger's most recognizable models.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather can offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and ensure comfort.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper of the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers is typically made from high-quality leather.

Troubleshooting

Sizing seems incorrect

Refer to the official Onitsuka Tiger sizing chart. Consider trying on a pair in-store if possible, as fit can vary by individual foot shape. Some users find they need to size up or down from their usual size.

Leather creasing excessively

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid overly tight lacing. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.

Sole appears worn quickly

Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (casual wear, light activity). Avoid excessive wear on abrasive surfaces. Regular cleaning can help preserve the sole's material.

Color transfer from black stripes to socks

This can occasionally happen with new shoes, especially the black accents. Washing socks separately for the first few times or ensuring the shoes are completely dry before wearing may help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and versatile design that complements various outfits.
  • High-quality leather provides durability and a premium look.
  • Comfortable for all-day wear, suitable for walking and casual activities.
  • Good traction from the rubber sole enhances stability.
  • Available in multiple colorways to suit personal style.

Cons

  • May run narrow for some foot shapes.
  • Leather requires specific care to maintain its condition.
  • Not designed for intense athletic training or sports.
  • Release date (2015) means it's a well-established model, not a cutting-edge performance shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These trainers require no assembly or setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Due to potential variations in fit, it is recommended to consult a sizing chart or try them on if possible. They are generally considered unisex.
  • Footwear Style: Designed as low-top trainers.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn stains on the leather, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid machine washing.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
