Product Information
Full details
The Onitsuka Tiger Serrano trainers are designed for individuals who appreciate 1970s-inspired athletic aesthetics combined with modern comfort for daily wear. These trainers offer a lightweight, agile feel that pays homage to classic track spikes, making them an excellent choice for casual outings. However, users should note that the low-profile design provides minimal arch support compared to dedicated performance running shoes, so they are best suited for lifestyle and fashion-focused activities rather than high-impact exercise.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Onitsuka Tiger Serrano typically fits true to size. If you are between sizes, we recommend trying a half-size up for extra comfort.
Can I use these for marathon running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers inspired by athletic shoes and do not have the technical cushioning or stability required for long-distance running.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading and material degradation.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, most Serrano models feature removable insoles, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Will the blue colour fade over time?
Like all dyed footwear, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight can cause fading. Keeping them stored in a box or closet helps maintain the vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Consider using a double knot or replacing them with textured cotton laces for better grip.
Soles feeling too slippery on smooth surfaces
Allow the rubber outsoles to 'break in' over a few days of wear to improve traction.
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when storing the shoes to help maintain the original shape and minimize visible creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Compatibility:
These trainers come ready to wear with a standard lace-up closure. The UK 8.5 size provides a consistent fit for most standard foot shapes. To ensure the best experience, we recommend wearing them with low-cut or invisible socks to maintain the clean lines of the low-profile design.
Care Instructions:
- Surface Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt and dust with a soft brush or dry cloth.
- Stain Removal: For deeper stains, use a mild soap mixed with water and a soft-bristled brush, applying gentle circular motions.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can warp the material.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not machine wash or submerge these trainers in water, as this can degrade the adhesives and structural integrity.
