PALENQUE (Transition)
fit: medium
PALENQUE — Handmade lightness that hugs your foot
- Looking for something different? PALENQUE is not your classic mule or a rigid clog. It brings the best of both: a handwoven front, open back, and a buckle ankle strap. Light, secure, and full of character — perfect for those who love handmade simplicity.
- Made with our NOPAL last: anatomical, flexible, and spacious. Same fit as CHILAQUILÓN and NOPAL. Great if you know those or want a closed-up version with a firm hold.
- IMPORTANT: This model isn’t ideal for slim ankles, as the back strap might slip. If you have stronger or wider ankles, PALENQUE will be a great match

The measurements in the guide are internal and indicate the actual space inside the shoe.
Measurements are also taken from the inside of the stitching, so you’ll still have approximately 0.5 cm of extra room. If your foot measures exactly what is shown in the guide, the shoe won’t fit right to the edge.

Four curiosities about MEXAS
100% Handmade
Our huaraches are 100% handmade in Mexico, following a traditional craftsmanship process with over 500 years of history.
Chemical-free natural leather
We use vegetable-tanned leather that is free from harmful chemicals. MEXAS are suitable for people with chrome allergies.
They adapt to your feet
Because they are made of natural leather, they gradually soften and adapt to the shape of your feet. They are lightweight, flexible and breathable, thanks to their signature woven design.
Social impact
We donate part of the profits from every sale to the NGO “Mujeres Aliadas,” based in Michoacán — the region where our shoes are made.
