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.

LUXURIOUSLY crafted in Spain from TIP TO TOE

There's something undeniably special about woven flats, but this pair, created with an artisanal pasado technique, is extra luxurious. Artisans in Spain use a machine to closely weave the leather, resulting in a nearly trompe l'oeil look. From afar, it can appear like smooth leather or suede, but a closer inspection reveals its gorgeous texture. We love it for its innate flexibility as much as its ability to easily segue from sunshine to the chillier months.

Beautiful summer flat

"I’m really happy with the Fonteyn Jane. The quality is amazing and the leather really soft on the skin. I usually wear a 43 but got the 43,5 in wide. Unfortunately they are a bit too big, so you can stay true to size. Be aware that you don’t have a lot of stability in the shoe. It’s comfortable and I would buy it again."

Julia K. (5/5)

Amazing Shoe

"I love this shoe and quality. I get hesitant about the high price, but they are extremely comfortable and the only shoes I can really wear in Europe or traveling that are comfortable and don't give blisters. They are worth the splurge."

Alyssa R. (5/5)

Best shoes EVER

"I live in NYC and purchased multiple shoes from other brands only to return them due to poor quality or not being comfortable enough to run around the city in the summer- Margaux was worth every penny and I finally found a brand that still makes shoes with high quality materials that feel like butter on your feet! I purchased the 36. 5 wide and I definitely recommend wide if you have a wider foot. I am a true size 6. 5 US and typically a 37 European but since they had 36. 5 that was a much better fit! Love them and recommend them 10/10"

Kendell K. (5/5)

Shoe great just not all colors

"Absolutely love this shoe! So cute and the most comfortable shoe I’ve owned in a while. I ordered it in the brown and loved it so this was my second color the ecru. The reason I knocked it down one star is the Ecru color was a miss and a return. Online it looks cute but in person it just looks like a dirty white. Everything else is great and I recommend just not this color."

Brittnee N. (4/5)

Cutest shoes ever!

"I wanted a cooler, breathable, summer version of my Repetto ballet flats. These are sooooo comfortable. They feel like slippers, no break-in. And they are unbelievably cute in person. I just love them! Great with all my linens pants and dresses. A step dressier than just sandals. They will work here in fall. My first Margauxs!"

Gaye M. (5/5)

Perfectly perfect!

"I have difficult feet. Bunions, abused toes etc… These arrived the day before we left for a cruise as my only neutral flats, I was worried. Tried them on and they fit perfectly. Wore them everyday on the cruise with no blisters or soreness at all. Very comfortable!"

Nicole G. (5/5)

The best flats

"These are the most comfortable and high quality flats that I hear bought in a long time! There is no down time to break in and I’m obsessed with the design! They literally go with everything!"

Marija H. (5/5)

Pretty summer shoes

"I purchased the Fonteyn Jane in Ecru Woven Leather because I wander a sandal adjacent shoes to wear to work events in warmer weather. These are comfortable, stylish and airy enough from the woven structure that they hit every mark for me. One note - the leather is super soft and not terribly structured. I found a need to tighten the strap to ensure they didn’t droop down my foot. I ordered the wide because I have bunions and despite having narrow feet the wide is a better fit I’m Margaux shoes, but I probably could have gone with the regular width in these. Despite that…these are great and I can’t wait to wear them on my next work trip!"

Patricia T. (5/5)

Nice Shoe But Not For Me

"This shoe was beautifully made and nice looking but for me it made my already long narrow foot look even longer. I might try it in another color in the future."

Katie K. (5/5)

So worth it

"These shoes are surprisingly comfortable, feel well made, and look sooo good! Definitely worth the investment."
