FAQs

What material are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 trainers made of?

These trainers feature a combination of leather and suede for the upper, with a flat rubber sole.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

The Mexico 66 trainers are designed for everyday wear and casual comfort. While they have athletic roots, they are best suited for walking and casual activities, not high-impact sports.

How should I clean the suede parts of the shoes?

Use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 series is available in various colorways. The 'White Directoire Blue' is one specific vintage-inspired option.

How do I know if I have the right size?

It is recommended to check the Onitsuka Tiger sizing guide for accurate measurements. Many users find it helpful to compare with their usual shoe size, but variations can occur.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, it is advisable to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain. Excessive moisture can damage the leather and suede. Consider using a water-repellent spray designed for leather and suede footwear.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or too loose.

Consult the Onitsuka Tiger size chart and consider trying a half-size up or down. For a snugger fit, ensure laces are properly adjusted.

Discoloration on suede or leather.

Use specialized cleaners for leather and suede. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Protect from excessive sun exposure.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the soles are clean. If the issue persists, consider a sole protector spray designed for footwear, or consult a cobbler for grip enhancement.

Laces fraying or breaking.

Replace laces with a similar material and length. Standard shoe laces are readily available.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather and suede surfaces with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Suede Care: Use a suede brush to maintain the texture of the suede panels. Protect suede from excessive moisture.
  • Drying: If shoes become 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 materials.
