Women's Mary Janes

Mary Janes: a feminine yet functional staple

With a signature strap across the top, Mary Jane shoes bring a timeless, classic touch to any outfit. Whether you are looking for a soft MJ style or bolder Mary Janes with heels, thick straps, or hardware, these shoes are versatile and transition well from day to night, for any style of outfit. Mary Janes are practical, yet stylish, making them great for the office, date nights, or casual days out. Discover the perfect shoe to style with dresses in spring, or jeans and a sweater in fall. Whether your look is channeling old money, preppy, romance or vintage, Mary Janes are a great choice in a variety of colors including black, red, burgundy, beige, pink, blue and more.

What are Mary Jane shoes?

An iconic silhouette, Mary Janes are traditionally closed-toed ballet flats with a chic band across the instep. At Rothy’s, we’ve made various versions of this whimsical style—perfect for date nights or simply to add a touch of special to every day. 

The Ballet Mary Jane is a round-toe silhouette, with eyelets across a thicker strap. The Point Mary Jane II is an iconic style, complete with a signature buckle. As a classic alternative, our square-toed Mary Jane flats are an understated, sophisticated take on this classic style, with a slim strap design and a square toe made for exceptional comfort. For an edgier take on MJs, opt for The Max Square Mary Jane. Or you can elevate your look with The Double Buckle Mary Jane, a spin on a classic. In addition to our flat Mary Jane shoes, Rothy’s also offers The Mary Jane Heel for a bit of added height.

How can I style Mary Janes?

Mary Jane shoes can be worn with almost anything. Pair them with a blazer and trousers for a sleek outfit, or with denim and a tee for a weekend outing. Mary Janes also complement flowy dresses for a more romantic look, and they can also complete a monochrome outfit for a bit of fashion-forward edginess. Whether you’re styling a modern or throwback-inspired outfit, Mary Janes always fit the bill.

Are Mary Jane shoes comfortable?

Like all Rothy’s, our Mary Jane shoes are designed for exceptional comfort, straight out of the box. Knit to shape with our signature thread spun from plastic bottles, these styles are structured yet soft—with just the right amount of flexibility to move you through your day. The slim straps on our Mary Janes gently secures the top of your foot without adding pressure. With some silhouettes, the Love Insole™ adds extra support and cushion, making your Mary Janes comfortable for all-day wear.

How do Rothy’s Mary Jane shoes fit?

Rothy’s Mary Jane shoes should gently hug the contour of your foot—but never feel tight. Our unique knit construction allows for flexibility and structure, so your shoes can move with you without stretching out. For The Mary Jane, most customers recommend going up half a size for narrow feet and a full size for wider feet. To find out more about how each of our shoes fit, visit our Fit Guide.
