"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)

"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)

The cutest and comfiest

"I got the phoebe denim in my usual size in wide and they are a perfect fit. The shoes are comfortable out of the box because of the material and supportive insoles. They are the cutest pair, goes so well with jeans, shorts or dress. I just love wearing them. The staff at Margaux SF helped me get the right pair. They are professional and really helpful. The store is also kitty corner from a parking lot, very convenient to drive to."

— Joanne B. (5/5)

The most comfortable flats I own

"Yes, flats can be both comfortable and incredibly chic! I am on my feet for most of the day at work and these shoes were incredibly comfortable and supportive right out of the box. The material is super supple and soft. Can’t wait to take these on my European vacation. The perfect chic walking shoe if you don’t want to wear sneakers."

— Robin K. (5/5)

Extremely Comfortable Flat Ballerinas – My Best Purchase Yet.

"The Phoebe flat ballerinas are hands-down the best footwear purchase I’ve made. They’re incredibly soft and feel amazing on my feet, offering all-day comfort without any break-in period. Highly recommend!"

— Sharon S. (5/5)

Beautifully Made

"Made beautifully and extremely comfortable. I work on my feet 8. 5 hours and wore these all day with no complaints. Love that leopard is a neutral, I can wear it with so many different outfits!"
