FAQs
Are the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 suitable for running?
While they offer comfort for walking, the Mexico 66 are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers and may not provide the specific support and cushioning required for serious running.
How should I clean the cream leather?
Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. For stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid machine washing.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The Mexico 66 series is available in a wide range of colors and designs. The 'Cream Black' is one specific popular variation.
What is the main difference between Mexico 66 and other Onitsuka Tiger models?
The Mexico 66 is distinguished by its iconic design, slim profile, and historical significance as a track shoe adapted for everyday wear.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the brand's size chart. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Trying them on in-store, if possible, is the best way to ensure a perfect fit.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The leather upper offers some protection, but they are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a leather protector spray can help mitigate light moisture.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your foot. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural with leather. Ensure you are not over-tightening laces and store them with shoe trees or stuffed with paper to help maintain shape.
Sole appears worn
The gum rubber sole is designed for traction. If significant wear is observed, it may indicate heavy use. Regular cleaning can help maintain the sole's appearance and grip.
Discoloration on leather
Clean gently with a damp cloth. For persistent discoloration, consult a professional shoe repair specialist or use a color-matched leather conditioner if available.
