FAQs
Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?
While inspired by classic running shoes, the Mexico 66 models are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light, non-competitive jogging. They may not offer the advanced support and cushioning required for serious or regular athletic running.
How should I clean the silver leather?
Gently wipe the silver leather with a slightly damp, soft cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for delicate finishes, and always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Sizing can vary slightly. It's recommended to check customer reviews for specific feedback on sizing for the Mexico 66 model. If possible, try them on or refer to the brand's official size chart for the most accurate fit.
What is the warranty period for these shoes?
Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. Typically, footwear brands offer a limited warranty against manufacturing defects for a period, often around 6 months to a year. It is best to check the warranty details provided by the seller at the time of purchase.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, these trainers are designed to be worn with socks. The type of sock you choose can affect comfort and style. Thinner athletic socks are common for a classic look, while thicker socks might impact the fit.
Are there other color options available for the Mexico 66?
Yes, the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 series is available in a wide range of colorways, including various combinations of silver, white, cream, and other popular hues.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Leather can take some time to break in; wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your foot. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size up or a different model.
Leather scuffs or marks easily.
Use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove marks. Apply a leather protector spray to help prevent future scuffs and stains. Minor scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a soft brush.
Sole appears worn or detached.
Inspect the sole for any signs of separation. Minor wear can often be addressed by a cobbler. If there is significant detachment, contact the retailer or manufacturer for warranty assessment.
Silver finish starts to fade or peel.
Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Use specialized cleaners for metallic finishes if available, or a very gentle approach with a damp cloth. Prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight might also contribute to fading.
