Grown women wearing mary janes

[Anonymous]

can someone explain this to me? I do not understand why any grown woman would wear a shoe with a little strap/ ie a version of mary jane. It feels like an insane fashion choice. what am i missing? why do shoe designers do this? we are not 8.

It’s horrible. I’m with you, OP.

Comfort. If they are suffering from arthritis or other back pain or hip pain, this could be the shoe with relief.

Far more comfortable than clomping around in heels. I love my MJ style shoes.

There are Mary Janes for men now.

I like them because they stay on.

I can't understand why any grown woman would wear high heels that wreck her posture and cause ankle, tendon and calf injuries, and leave her unable to walk distances in comfort.

I don’t care for them either.

I don’t currently own any, but have a foot condition that essentially limits me to shoes that lace or have a strap. So Mary janes are basically my only dressier option.

Thanks for judging.

Grown women wear what they want to wear.

They've been trendy for a few years now, thanks to The Row. I find them cute but not my style -- too feminine.

I have trouble finding good ones, but I have two different size feet and it's difficult to find a shoe I can wear with a dress that will stay on my smaller foot.

Amen. I’ve never owned heels and never will.

You were socialized to believe things that don’t make sense and it’s so wrapped around your brain you can’t think for yourself.

Slip ons.

There must be a reason why ballroom dancers and flamenco dancer wears shoes with straps and why marathon runners wear lace ups.
