FAQs

What are the main materials used in the Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81 EX?

The primary upper material is suede, with a rubber outsole for traction.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They are not intended for intense running or high-impact sports that require specialized cushioning and support.

How should I clean the suede part of the trainers?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing or soaking.

What does 'Ultimate 81 EX' signify?

'Ultimate 81' refers to the original model's heritage, often referencing a specific year of design or inspiration. 'EX' likely denotes an updated or evolved version.

Is the fit true to size?

Onitsuka Tiger trainers generally fit true to size. However, it is always recommended to check sizing charts or try them on if possible, as individual foot shapes can vary.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the outsole offers some slip resistance, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material.

Troubleshooting

Suede color transfer

Ensure suede is dry before wearing. Use a suede protector spray. If color transfer occurs, allow shoes to dry completely and try brushing the suede gently.

Tread wears down quickly

Avoid using the trainers for high-impact sports or rough terrain. Clean the outsole regularly to remove debris that can accelerate wear.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with a similar material. Avoid excessive pulling or tightening of the laces.
