FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find the Mexico 66 fits true to size, though the slim profile may feel narrow for those with wider feet.

Can I use these for jogging?

No, these are lifestyle sneakers. They lack the arch support and shock absorption required for running or athletic exercise.

How do I maintain the color?

Keep them out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not wearing them and use a gentle cleaner periodically to prevent dirt buildup.

Are these suitable for all-day standing?

While comfortable for walking, they lack substantial cushioning, so they may not be the best choice for jobs requiring 8+ hours of standing.

Do I need to break them in?

The materials are relatively soft, but like most footwear, they may take a few wears to perfectly conform to the shape of your feet.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are generally removable if you wish to insert custom orthotics or replace them for extra comfort.

Troubleshooting

Creasing at the toe box

Creasing is a natural result of the leather-style material; using cedar shoe trees when not wearing the shoes can help maintain their shape.

Surface dirt accumulation

Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild, dedicated leather or synthetic cleaner.

Laces coming undone

Ensure you are using a double knot if the flat laces are prone to slipping, or replace them with a slightly textured lace of the same length.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and versatile aesthetic
  • Extremely lightweight and comfortable for walking
  • High-quality construction and durable materials
  • Low-profile design works well with jeans, shorts, and casual trousers

Cons

  • Minimal cushioning compared to modern athletic trainers
  • Not suitable for intense sports or running
  • Low-cut design may not provide enough ankle support for some users

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Out of the box, the shoes are ready for immediate wear. Because they feature a classic leather-adjacent finish, it is recommended to treat them with a water-repellent spray before initial use to protect against stains. To clean, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the exterior surfaces; avoid machine washing or soaking, as this can degrade the materials and structural integrity. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the vibrancy of the cream and blue colorway.
