FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

No, the Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81 EX are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the provided guide. Many users find Onitsuka Tiger trainers fit true to size, but individual experiences may vary.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the trainers can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions, as this can damage the materials and affect comfort.

What is the primary material used in these trainers?

The specific materials can vary slightly, but typically include a combination of synthetic materials, textiles, and possibly suede or leather accents for durability and style.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The Ultimate 81 EX features a flat heel design, providing basic cushioning. They offer moderate support suitable for casual walking, but individuals requiring significant arch support may benefit from using custom insoles.

How should I store my trainers when not in use?

Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or on a rack, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone easily

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a grippier material if the issue persists.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider wearing them with thicker socks.

Color transfer to socks

Some darker colors may have a slight tendency to bleed initially. This usually subsides after a few wears. Consider wearing darker socks until the issue resolves.

Tread wear on the sole

Normal wear and tear is expected with use. If excessive wear occurs quickly, check for any abrasive surfaces the shoes are frequently exposed to.
