Our nappa shoes are made from a soft, Italian nappa and flexible leather soles. Nappa leather is permeable, so avoid exposure to water and rain. To maintain the sheen and finish over time, you can use a quality leather lotion.

Reviews

Gorgeous shoe

"Beautiful leather (color is perfect) and appreciate that Margaux offers multiple widths as I have a narrow foot. The only reason why I didn’t give this shoe a 5 star rating is because my heel slips just a bit in the back. I’m not sure how much these shoes will stretch overtime so i am nervous about ordering down a size. I’ll try a heel insert as they really are beautiful shoes !"

— Rhonda H. (4/5)

Love the fit and the color!

"This loafer could not be more comfortable! I was looking for a deep chocolate and this fit the bill. I put it on and wore it for six hours and was amazed how comfortable it was. Perfect!"

— Robyn M. (5/5)

Beautiful shoe but uncomfortable

"Love the style of these shoes! They are chic and classic but the way the seam in the back of the shoe is cut, it rubs terribly on the back of my heals. Hoping they will stretch and become more comfortable but disappointed with the fit given the price tag."

— Alex B. (2/5)

Excellent Purchase

"I love every pair of Margaux shoes I own. The leather is buttery soft and this pair is no exception. There is a break in period, the heels are a smidge narrow. Overall, great shoe."

— Stefanie G. (5/5)

Best shoe investment

"after two days of wearing, they have molded to my feet and feel like second skin and also stylish and elegant and go with anything. more than I would typically spend on shoes, but completely worth it for wardrobe staple that doesn't hurt your feet and feels very comfortable"
