FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Mexico 66 series generally features a slim fit. If your child has very wide feet, you may want to consider sizing up by a half size.
Can these be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and the glue holding the shoe together.
Are they waterproof?
No, these shoes are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep mud.
What is the primary difference between the Baja and standard Mexico 66?
The Baja series often focuses on the classic silhouette with specific material updates for comfort and flexibility in a youth-oriented design.
Do these provide enough support for running?
These are casual fashion trainers. While they are comfortable for walking and play, they lack the high-level cushioning and stability features found in dedicated running shoes.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting the shoes on
Loosen the laces completely to open the throat of the shoe wide before inserting the foot.
Surface scuffs on the white material
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a soft cloth dipped in a diluted, non-bleach cleaning solution.
Laces coming undone
Ensure a double knot is tied if the child is new to lace-up shoes, or replace with elastic laces for easier entry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is crucial for growing feet; ensure the child is wearing the appropriate sock thickness when trying on the shoes to gauge space in the toe box. Since these trainers have a white base, keeping them clean is key to maintaining their look. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains on the upper. Avoid machine washing, as heat and excessive water can compromise the structural integrity and adhesives of the shoe. For stubborn dirt on the sole, a gentle brush works best. Always air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material cracking or warping.
