FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Mexico 66 trainers have heritage roots in running shoe design, offering a lightweight feel. However, they are best suited for casual wear and light activity rather than intense, modern athletic training.
How do I find the correct size?
Refer to the Onitsuka Tiger size chart and measure your foot length. Given that they are leather and can run narrow, consider your foot width when selecting a size. Many users suggest trying them on if possible or consulting reviews for sizing advice.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and ensure comfort.
What is the primary material of the shoe?
The primary material for the upper of this model is premium leather.
How often should I clean my Mexico 66 trainers?
Clean them as needed, typically after noticeable dirt or marks appear. A light wipe-down with a damp cloth after each few wears can help maintain their appearance.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Mexico 66 model is available in various colorways. This specific guide focuses on the 'Silver' and 'White' variant.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot. If still too tight, consider using thicker socks during wear or exploring professional stretching services.
Silver finish appears scuffed
Minor scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, consult a specialist shoe repair service.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize unnatural folding. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.
