Mary Jane Loafer Heels

Our Mary Jane loafer heels mix two classics: the sturdy, polished look of a loafer and the buckled ankle strap of a 1920s Mary Jane. The upper is glossy patent faux leather with a round toe and a small bow on the vamp, set on a thick sole and a chunky block heel that feels steady on a dance floor.

Brown or Black Patent Mary Jane Heels

The brown is a deep chocolate patent that pairs well with tweed, camel and cream for a daytime 1920s look. The black is the sharper option for evening, sitting cleanly under a black or silver sequin dress. On both, the thin strap closes with a small silver-tone buckle, and the block heel is black.

Finding Your Size in These Loafer Heels

Sizes run from 35 to 40 and follow foot length, not the insole. Stand on a sheet of paper, mark your heel and longest toe, and measure: 35 fits a foot of 8.7 to 8.9 in (22 to 22.5 cm), about US 5.5, while 40 fits 9.6 to 9.8 in (24.5 to 25 cm), about US 8.5. The size chart in the photos gives every step in between.

Mary Jane Loafer Heels FAQ

Are these comfortable for swing dancing?

The chunky block heel and thick sole spread your weight better than a slim heel, and the ankle strap holds the foot during spins. We suggest wearing them around the house for an evening first.

How do I keep the patent shine?

Wipe them with a soft damp cloth after wear and dry them right away. A drop of faux leather cleaner restores the gloss.

What should I wear them with?

Wide-leg trousers, a pleated midi skirt or a drop-waist dress, with sheer or seamed tights for an evening out.
