FAQs
Are these suitable for running?
The Mexico 66 are designed with heritage running shoe aesthetics but are best suited for casual wear and light activity. They are not recommended for rigorous athletic training or competitive running.
How do I clean the silver leather?
Wipe the silver leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a cleaner specifically designed for leather, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Sizing can vary slightly. It is recommended to consult the Onitsuka Tiger size chart and consider your usual fit. Some users find they run a bit narrow, so if you have wider feet, you might consider sizing up.
What is the primary material used?
The primary material for the upper of the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 "Silver" trainers is premium leather.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended. Using a leather protectant spray can offer some water resistance.
What is the main color of this shoe?
The main color is silver, with white accents, including the iconic Onitsuka Tiger stripes.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Mexico 66 model comes in various colorways. The 'Silver/White' is one specific variant, but other combinations exist within the Mexico 66 line.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
The leather may need a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase or exploring professional shoe stretching services if the tightness persists.
Scuff marks on the silver leather
For minor scuffs, try a leather eraser or a soft cloth with a very mild leather cleaner. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair specialist.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
New shoe soles can sometimes be slippery. Lightly scuffing the soles on a rough surface can help improve grip. If the issue persists, consider applying a non-slip sole treatment.
Discoloration of the white stripes
Clean the white stripes gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
