Troubleshooting

Leather surface shows scuff marks

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or a neutral shoe cream to the affected area and buff gently with a soft cloth.

Footwear feels tight after extended use

Check if the laces are tied too tightly or if the child has outgrown the current size; consider upgrading to the next half-size.

Accumulated dirt in the outsole tread

Use an old soft-bristled toothbrush to dislodge pebbles or dried mud from the grooves of the rubber sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Onitsuka Tiger shoes remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner applied to a soft brush, and gently wipe away residue.
  2. Moisture Prevention: Avoid machine washing or submerging the leather in water, as this can damage the material and affect the adhesive bonds.
  3. Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent color fading and leather cracking.
  4. Fitment: These shoes follow standard UK sizing. Ensure the fit allows for a small amount of wiggle room for the toes to promote healthy foot growth.
