The Mexico 66 is Onitsuka Tiger's original 1966 training shoe, kept close to its archive form with a slim leather upper, the crossed heel parts and the heel flap. This version uses cream cow leather with pale sage green on the side stripes and tongue label, and an OrthoLite insole for cushioning. It is a low-profile, narrow-fitting retro sneaker, so it suits people who want a clean vintage look rather than a cushioned daily runner. Against modern retro rivals it is lighter and flatter, with less padding underfoot.
