The collection includes the Mexico 66, ballet flats and the Mexico Rinkan Boots. The Mexico 66, a popular sneaker from Onitsuka Tiger, is reinterpreted in a pink and black colorway, among other options, featuring grosgain-adorned lines in a nod to Patou’s signature feature. The tiger logo is re-envisioned as a removable charm which also features the Patou name. The shoe is made with Nappa leather and retails for $345, though it is already sold out in the black and pink colorway on Patou’s website.

Two straps stretching across the foot create a variation of the Mary Jane aesthetic. The Ballerina retails for $345 is also currently sold out from Patou as of Nov. 20 in the pink and white colorway and black and white option.
