Women's Marielle Stretch Leather Mary-Jane

My favorite shoes

I love these shoes so much! I ended up purchasing black after loving the burgundy. I like a wide box but have a narrow heel, so straps are a must for me. The Marielle shoes are perfect. Not only are they incredibly comfortable, and they stay on my feet, but having the wool liners is fantastic. I work in a building that has an unpredictable HVAC system. The wool liners keep my feet comfortable regardless of when it may be 60 degrees in my classroom (even in summer in southern California when we dress for heat) and 80 degrees in my office on the same day. I have to be prepared for both. These shoes work beautifully. I wish all shoe companies used wool liners! I also get compliments on them all the time. They are such good looking shoes! I've had students tell me they love my shoes, as well as other teachers. Recently, when conducting a job interview, the applicant (who had met me once before apparently) walked in and said, "Oh, the lady with the great shoes! You're going to need to tell me where you got them." She had remembered liking them from months before in a meeting we both attended. So, I'm not the only one that finds them to be super cute and they work well with dress pants and more casual clothing. I really wish they had a navy color as well. I would buy the Marielle in every color.

Quality shoe!

The Marielle seems to be a very good quality shoe. I didn’t keep it because I decided to try the Eva Mary Jane instead. I like that the Eva has a merino wool liner.

Pretty Darn Good

I have super narrow feet (AAA), so these Mary Janes fit and are comfortable, but there is still a gap between the leather and the top of my foot at the front of the shoe. That has been an ongoing issue for me all of my life and I was hoping this time would be different. I'm still keeping and enjoying the shoes.
