A leather Mexico 66 for buyers who want a low-profile retro sneaker and accept a thin sole. Model-level reports say it runs true to size and that all-leather uppers hold up over years, though some owners see early creasing. Wide feet should look for a wide-fit version.

Pros
Cons
Fit notes
Reported true to size on the Mexico 66, so order your normal sneaker size. Buyers with wide feet are advised to choose a wide-fit version rather than sizing up, since a larger size adds length while the forefoot stays tight. This listing runs 36–45 including half sizes.
Buy if
You want a soft full-grain leather low-top in a multicolor retro silhouette, need a half size between 36 and 45, and are fine with minimal underfoot cushioning and a break-in period for creasing.
Skip if
You need a cushioned daily trainer, you have wide feet and a wide-fit version is not available to you, or visible leather creasing within the first weeks would bother you.
