FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Mexico 66 has roots in running shoe design, they are best suited for casual wear and light activities rather than intense athletic training. For dedicated running, consider specialized running shoes.
How do I clean the metallic gold leather?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or scuffed
Gently clean with a damp cloth. For scuffs, try a specialized leather cleaner or a product designed for metallic leather finishes. Ensure to test on an inconspicuous area first.
