FAQs

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

The upper is primarily made of supple cream leather, with contrasting black stripes. The sole is typically gum rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Mexico 66 are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While comfortable for walking and light activity, they do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for serious running.

How should I clean the cream leather?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for light-colored leather, testing it on a small area first.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 series is available in a wide variety of colorways, including other variations of white, black, and cream.

What is the typical fit of the Mexico 66?

The Mexico 66 generally has a slim and narrow fit. It's advisable to check sizing charts and consider your foot width when purchasing.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the gum rubber sole offers some traction, the leather upper is not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material.

What is the '66' in the name referring to?

The '66' in Mexico 66 refers to the year this iconic shoe model was originally launched.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Leather shoes may require a break-in period. You can try wearing them with thin socks for short periods initially. If persistent, consider trying a half-size up or using shoe stretchers.

Discoloration on leather

For minor marks, try cleaning with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for the color. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Soles becoming slippery

Ensure the gum rubber soles are clean. Over time, wear can reduce traction. For excessive wear, professional sole repair might be an option.

Stitching coming undone

Inspect the stitching for loose threads. For minor issues, a fabric glue might temporarily secure it. For significant damage, professional shoe repair is recommended.
