Patent-Leather Mary Jane Shoes

Proenza Schouler’s black Mary Jane shoes evoke a nostalgic mood. They’re crafted from glossy patent leather with a wide T-bar strap which fastens with a silver buckle and rests on a chunky lug rubber sole with a low-block heel. Wear them to bring a directional note to daytime looks.
