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.

Overall rating: 4.8305087 / 5 from 118 reviews.

Reviews

Wore on my wedding dancefloor

"Great shoes! Bought a 10.5, usually wear an 11 - but run a little small. Unlike some of the leather ballet flats, don't scuff that much and tend to hold shape. Very comfortable - wore on my wedding dancefloor after I took off my heels."

— Morgan K. (5/5)

Attractive, comfortable shoes

"Love these versatile, multiseason shoes that are very walkable. I can even put orthotics in them."

— Michelle H. (5/5)

"I absolutely love these. They are so well-made and very comfortable. Color is the perfect shade of brown."

— Amy (5/5)

Cute and very comfortable!

"These shoes are comfy right away and easy to style with many outfits."

— Kimberly D. (5/5)

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)

Flexible and comfortable

"These shoes fit my hard-to-fit feet and were comfortable out of the box. I have narrow heels and a medium front of foot. Size narrow worked because the shoes have some flex or stretch in the woven leather. They were padded enough that wearing for all day is no problem. So glad I purchased !"

— Laura C. (5/5)

Cute and comfy

"Love my suede “Mary Jane’s”! I have thin feet and this shoe is a perfect fit. I’m new to this brand, but I will be looking at their styles from now on."

— Gail T. (5/5)

Zero Blisters Walking Around NYC

"These are fabulous shoes and great transitional footwear to branch summer to fall. I walked all around NYC with them and never got a single blister. Will be buying again from Margaux."

— Lara B. (5/5)

First pair of Margaux shoes

"I love them! They fit perfectly and I could wear them right out of the box with very little “break in” required."

— Sheri L. (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)
