FAQs
Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?
While inspired by track shoes, the Mexico 66 is primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. They offer comfort for walking but are not recommended for intense athletic training or competitive running due to their construction and cushioning.
How do I choose the right size?
It is recommended to check the size chart provided by Onitsuka Tiger and consider your usual shoe size. Many users find they may need to size up or down slightly depending on foot width, as the shoes can sometimes run narrow.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The leather upper is not waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Consider using a water-repellent spray designed for leather and suede to offer some protection.
What is the main difference between Mexico 66 variants?
Variants typically differ in colorways, specific material accents (e.g., suede vs. leather), and minor design details. The core silhouette and comfort features of the Mexico 66 remain consistent across most variants.
How do I clean the signature stripes?
Use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution to gently clean the serrated stripes. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the material or color.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by region and retailer. It is advisable to check the product's warranty card or the retailer's website for specific details regarding the warranty period and coverage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Try wearing thinner socks or consider professional stretching services if the fit is consistently uncomfortable. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.
Leather shows scuffs or marks
Use a leather conditioner or shoe polish specifically designed for white leather to mask minor imperfections. For deeper scuffs, consult a shoe repair specialist.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber outsole may take some time to break in. For immediate improvement, a light sanding of the sole with fine-grit sandpaper can sometimes enhance grip, but do so cautiously.
Interior lining feels rough
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. A thin pair of socks can also help prevent irritation.
