FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
These trainers feature a unique cream velvet construction with green accents.
Are these suitable for sports or athletic activities?
While comfortable for walking, the velvet material is best suited for casual wear and fashion rather than intense athletic activities.
How should I clean the velvet material?
Spot clean with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Use specialized velvet cleaners for tougher stains.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear velvet trainers in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the material and affect its appearance.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect the velvet from dust and damage.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
This specific model is the 'Cream Velvet Pine' colorway. Other Mexico 66 models are available in different materials and colors.
What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?
The Mexico 66 series generally fits true to size. However, velvet can offer a bit more flexibility. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for the most accurate fit, or consider trying them on if possible.
Troubleshooting
Velvet appears matted or discolored.
Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap. For discoloration, consult a velvet care guide for specific treatments.
Scuff marks on the velvet.
Attempt to gently rub the scuff mark with a clean pencil eraser or a specialized velvet cleaning cloth. Be gentle to avoid damaging the fibers.
Shoes feel tight after initial wear.
Velvet can mold to the foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure the correct size was purchased.
Soles feel slippery.
New soles can sometimes have a slippery coating. Lightly scuff the soles on a rough surface or use a sole grip enhancer if needed.
