FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Mexico 66 SD generally fits true to size, but because they have a slim silhouette, those with wider feet may prefer to size up by half a size.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction. Clean them manually using a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner.
What is the difference between the standard Mexico 66 and the SD version?
The SD (Super Deluxe) version features upgraded leather quality and improved internal cushioning systems for enhanced long-term comfort compared to the standard model.
Are these suitable for heavy exercise?
These are lifestyle sneakers intended for walking and casual wear, not for high-intensity gym workouts or long-distance running.
How do I remove dirt from the white leather?
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt and a clean cloth dampened with a mild soap solution to gently wipe the surface.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows signs of scuffing
Use a matching leather polish or a neutral leather cream to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the finish.
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'parallel' or 'bar' lacing style, which reduces pressure across the top of the foot compared to standard criss-cross lacing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are made from genuine leather, it is important to treat them before first use with a leather-appropriate protective spray to guard against moisture and dirt. When lacing, ensure you do not pull the eyelets too tightly to prevent the leather from stretching unevenly. To maintain their shape, use wooden or plastic shoe trees when they are not in use. If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry slowly at room temperature; avoid placing them directly on radiators or heaters, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
