5 Reasons I Stopped Squeezing My Toes, Hiding My Feet, and Choosing Between Comfortable and Cute
Summary: For years my choice was simple. Pretty flats that pinched by lunchtime, or comfortable shoes I did not want anyone to see. My toes are wide, my bunion has opinions, and most flats are cut for a foot that is not mine. Then I found a Mary Jane made of soft knit, with room at the front and a thin flexible sole. 100,000+ women made the same switch. Here is what we all worked out.
As seen on
1. People Ask Where I Got Them
Leopard, checkerboard, or a little sparkle across the strap. These look like the flats you would pick off a shelf for their looks, not like comfort shoes.
The first week I wore the leopard pair, 3 people asked where they were from. That had not happened with a pair of shoes in years.
2. Nothing Presses on My Bunion
The front is wide and rounded, and the knit stretches where your foot needs room. My bunion sits inside the shoe instead of pushing against it.
No red mark across the top of my foot at the end of the day, nothing rubbing on my little toe. Women with wide feet keep saying the same thing in their reviews: nothing squeezes.
3. On in 2 Seconds, No Bending
Slip your foot in, press the strap, done. The strap closes with a soft hook-and-loop, so you can make it a little looser on the days your feet are bigger by the evening.
No laces, no sitting on the stairs, no shoehorn.
4. They Feel Like Socks With a Grip
They are so light you forget you have them on. The sole is thin and bends with your foot, and the rubber underneath holds on smooth floors.
I wear them around the house all day, to answer the door, to set the table when the family comes over, and on quick errands. They fold small enough to go in my handbag.
5. Right Now, You Get Buy 1 Get 1 Free
2 pairs, 2 colors. One for you and one for your sister, or both for you. Leopard and checkerboard go first, and the black, white and beige pairs have the sparkle strap.
They run a little small in length, so if you are between 2 sizes, take the larger one. Every order comes with easy returns.
