You may have called them “merceditas” all your life, or perhaps the name “Mary Jane” sounds more familiar if you read fashion magazines or blogs. But… are they the same? Or is there a difference between these iconic shoes?
The truth is, yes, we are talking about the same type of shoe: a closed shoe, usually flat or with a low heel, with a strap (or several) over the instep and a buckle on the side. A design many of us remember from childhood, but one that has reinvented itself over time and adapted to much more adult, contemporary, and, let’s face it, irresistible styles. And of course, you can find them in our women’s footwear catalogue.
