Our shoes are made from suede, a surprisingly durable material. Marks and scuffs to the suede can be gently removed using a suede brush and cleaning spray. Regular treatment with a protectant spray can also help prevent signs of future wear.

"I wish I could tell you these aren’t addictive and leather perfection, but they just are. Like a driving gloves, for your feet. "

Megan C.

Deconstructed elegance that you'll LIVE IN

We designed The Phoebe to feel as if you're wearing nothing at all. It's deconstructed elegance at its very best, with a sacchetto construction that fits and feels like a glove. Modern lines feel both of the moment and utterly timeless, and a thin elastic band over the foot is the ultimate in form and function.

Reviews

Needs no breaking in

"Bought these for a trip to France. The perfect walking around shoe for usual tourist activities. My feet run wide and tried both regular and wide sizes at the store and went with a wide knowing I’d be walking in them a lot. Would recommend for a cute walking shoe with super soft leather."

— Virginia F. (5/5)

Too Narrow and Not Worth the Money

"Very soft and would be an incredibly chic and flattering fit if they weren’t so, so tight. I routinely buy wide-fit shoes, and I was so excited to see that Margaux offers wide-fit shoes. But they are very, very narrow and tight. They SQUEAK when I walk! I trimmed my TOENAILS to see if it would help, and it doesn’t! The length is generous, but the width is sorely lacking. Very soft leather, and it feels high quality to the touch. Beautiful shoes, but only accessible to those with narrow feet."

— Breea G. (3/5)

1st Margaux Purchae

"Looove the phoebes! I was hoping to have the same experience as others do, not needing to break them in at all. I’m a solid 7 1/2 sometimes a wide, so that’s what I purchased. There’s still a bit snug after wearing for a few hours— but it was also pretty hot that day so I may have been a tad swollen 😅 Nonetheless I can tell they’re such high quality and have my eye on two other pairs!"

— Alegria A. (4/5)

"Genuinely the most comfortable shoes that I own! I got my regular size (37.5) but decided to listen to the reviews saying the shoes run a bit narrow and got a wide rather than my typical medium. That seems to have been the right decision since these fit like a glove. 10/10 love these and am considering getting some in a different color"

— Margaret (5/5)

"So comfy! I wish the toe box was a bit wuder; the wide was too loose in the heel, but i believe the medium will steetch just a bit. and they are already my favorite shoes. They are just gorgeous. I'm hoping for more colors that aren't suede which doesnt work well in rainy Oregon. Bright blue?"

— Kate (5/5)

I love the style and

"I love the style and unusual material; however, it fits too snug no matter what size and width I tried. Perhaps the ballet style demands a very narrow toe box. BTW, your customer service and ease of making returns are top notch--the best I've experienced online. I also like the way you package your product without using a lot of extraneous packing material."

— Gail S. (3/5)

Outstanding customer service and love the shoes

"These are the most comfortable and attractive shoes! I get compliments every time I wear them! There was an initial issue with sizing that I handled with customer service. Sara, in customer service, was outstanding. Buy the shoes! You’ll love them!"

— Nancy A. (5/5)

Sleek and comfy

"I absolutely adore these low profile flats. They are so elegant and so comfortable. It's hard to believe they're packed with so much padding when they have such a sleek, low profile appearance."

— Claudine C. (5/5)

Beautiful soft leather Comfortable I

"Beautiful soft leather Comfortable I had the experience of exchanging for half a size bigger Excellent service This is my 7 th or 8 th pair that I have ordered from Margaux All of them I enjoy"
