FAQs
What is the primary material of the Mexico 66 trainers?
The Mexico 66 trainers are primarily constructed from premium leather.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While comfortable for general wear and light activity, the Mexico 66 is not specifically designed for high-impact, long-distance running like dedicated running shoes. They are best suited for casual use and light training.
How should I clean the white and silver leather?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, apply a small amount of leather cleaner specifically designed for white or silver leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Always air dry away from heat.
What does 'Mexico 66' refer to?
The 'Mexico 66' name refers to the year these iconic trainers were originally released and their heritage as athletic footwear designed for international competitions.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Using a leather protector spray can offer some water resistance.
Do they come in other colors?
The Mexico 66 series is available in a wide variety of colorways. This guide focuses on the 'White Silver' variant, but other options may exist.
What is the fit like?
The Mexico 66 typically offers a snug, comfortable fit due to its lacing system and streamlined design. It's advisable to consult a size chart and consider wearing the type of socks you usually would to determine the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Ensure you have tied the laces correctly for a secure fit. Consider the type of socks you are wearing, as thicker socks can affect the fit. If the issue persists, check if a different size is available.
Leather creases or scuffs easily
Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair product. Regular use of a leather protector can help prevent minor abrasions.
Discoloration or staining on leather
Address stains immediately with a damp cloth or appropriate leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe care service.
