View QC PhotosQuick verdict
A flat, breathable leather-and-synthetic sneaker for buyers who prefer a classic low-profile silhouette over cushioning. Sizing reports conflict and owners split on the thin sole. The title names the Mexico 66 while the feature copy and style code describe the Serrano, so confirm the exact model before ordering.

Fit notes
Reports conflict. Community sizing advice for the Mexico 66 is to go about a half size down, and a Zappos reviewer says it runs a half size large; a Mexico 66 SD reviewer reports true to size. Half sizes are listed from 36 through 45.
Buy if
You want a lightweight, low-cushion leather sneaker with a leather lining and Solyte/EVA midsole, in a flat classic silhouette, and you're shopping sizes 36–45 including half sizes. You are comfortable confirming which model is being shipped before you order.
Skip if
You need cushioning or wet-weather grip: owners call the sole thin and fast-wearing, and buyer feedback quoted in the listing says it is not very slip-resistant. You also want one clear sizing rule — the reports disagree.
