FAQs

Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Vintage trainers suitable for running?

While they offer comfort for everyday wear, the Mexico 66 Vintage trainers are primarily designed as lifestyle shoes and are not optimized for serious running or high-impact athletic activities.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Onitsuka Tiger. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. For the Mexico 66 Vintage, they tend to fit true to size for most people.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and the shoe's construction. Hand clean using the methods described in the care section.

What is the difference between 'Vintage' and other Mexico 66 models?

The 'Vintage' designation often refers to specific colorways or finishes that evoke an older aesthetic. The core construction and comfort are generally consistent with the classic Mexico 66 design.

How durable is the leather upper?

The leather upper is designed for durability with proper care. Regular cleaning and conditioning will help maintain its appearance and longevity.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the Mexico 66 series is available in a wide variety of colorways. The 'Vintage' line specifically focuses on classic and retro-inspired color combinations.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Ensure you have the correct size; consider using thinner socks if needed.

Leather creasing excessively

This is natural with leather. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape and reduce deep creases. Avoid overly tight lacing.

Tigers stripes are dirty

Gently clean the stripes with a damp cloth and mild soap. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for adults seeking a stylish casual footwear option. They are unisex and designed for general wear, not specialized athletic performance.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their color and shape. Using shoe trees can help preserve their form.
  4. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against stains and water damage, especially for the birch-colored parts.
