Description

A Mary Jane, ready for winter.

A round-toe Mary Jane in a soft, matte faux suede. A curly cream faux-shearling collar turns over the edge all the way around, and the same cream plush lines the inside, insole included. A strap crosses the instep and buckles on the outside of the foot, with a row of notches so it fits over tights or wool socks. A small cord bow sits at the toe, on a thin flat black rubber sole.

What you are getting

  • A buckle strap with a row of notches
  • A curly faux-shearling collar all the way around
  • Cream plush lining, insole included
  • A matte faux suede upper
  • A small cord bow in the same color
  • A round toe
  • A thin, flat black rubber sole
  • Three colors: Chocolate, Black and Sand, with a cream collar on all three
  • US sizes 4 to 9

Perfect for tights and a wool skirt · jeans and a long coat · the office in December · errands, then dinner · holiday dinners · a daughter, or a mother, who misses her ballet flats in winter.

Size & fit

US sizes, on the maker's chart; the label inside reads the EU size: US 4 = EU 35 · 36 = US 5 · 37 = US 6 · 38 = US 7 · 39 = US 8 · 40 = US 9, with insole lengths from 8 7/8 in (35) to 9 7/8 in (40), a quarter inch per size. Measure your foot standing, heel to longest toe, and pick an insole at least a quarter inch longer. Between two sizes, take the size up. The strap adjusts the top of your foot, not the length. If your heel lifts when you walk with the strap buckled, the pair is too long: exchange it for the size below.

Collar and lining

Cream faux-shearling plush, insole included.

The same faux suede, with a metal buckle.

A woman sits on the edge of an armchair and buckles the strap of the New York Mary Jane in Chocolate over grey wool socks

It buckles like a belt. One more notch for wool socks.

In winter, there’s always something under your shoes. Sheer tights on Monday, thick wool socks on Saturday. Move the buckle one notch and the strap sits snug across your instep either way.

  • A strap with a row of notches
  • A metal buckle on the outside of the foot
  • A keeper loop that holds the end flat
  • Holds your foot at the instep, not just at the toes

A ballet flat in its winter collar.

The faux shearling turns over the edge like the collar of a winter coat, all the way around the heel. Under it, it’s still the flat you wear all spring: a round toe, a small bow, a soft matte faux suede.

  • A curly cream collar on all three colors
  • Plush inside, insole included
  • A thin cord bow on the toe
  • Chocolate, Black or Sand
A woman crosses a dry city street on a cold sunny morning in the New York Mary Jane in Sand with ivory wool socks

For cold, dry sidewalks. Not for slush.

Coffee, the office, errands, dinner. A thin, flat rubber sole keeps you close to the ground on a cold, dry day. Snow or slush? That’s a boot day.

  • A thin, flat black rubber sole
  • Tights, socks or bare ankles
  • Brush the faux suede once it’s dry
  • Keep it away from rain and road salt

Put them on over the socks you’ll really wear, on a rug or a clean floor.

Questions people ask before they buy

What size should I take?

Your usual US size. The label inside reads the EU size: a US 7 is marked 38. Between two sizes, take the size up.

Will my heel slip out?

The strap holds your foot across the instep. If your heel still lifts with the strap buckled, exchange the pair for the size below.

Can I wear them with thick socks?

Yes, that’s what the buckle is for. The strap has a row of notches: one for sheer tights, a looser one for wool socks or a high instep.

Are they flat? Is there support?

A true ballet flat: a thin, flat sole with plush underfoot. There’s no arch support built in.

Does it look like a slipper?

It’s built like a ballet flat: a round toe, a small bow, a thin black sole. The plush only shows at the collar.

Is it suede? Is it real fur?

Neither. The upper is a microfiber faux suede, and the collar and lining are a cream faux-shearling plush.

Can I wear them in rain or snow?

No. They’re made for cold, dry days in town. On a wet or snowy day, keep your boots.

Can I return or exchange them?

Yes, within 30 days of delivery, unworn and in their packaging: another size or color, or store credit. Return shipping is on you. Anything that arrives damaged or defective is on us.

Okay, the chocolate brown with all that cream trim is such a good combo. Then there’s the little bow and the silver buckle, which make the whole thing even cuter. Easy to picture these with jeans, socks, and a big sweater.

These in Sand with gray socks and dark jeans just work. The colors are simple, but the little strap and bow give the outfit something extra. Add a plain sweater and honestly, the outfit is pretty much done.

The details are even better up close. Those silver eyelets, the buckle, and that tiny bow all look so cute against the chocolate brown. And the cream trim around the opening ties everything together. There’s a lot to like in this little pair.
