Stylish Mary Jane style ballerinas with two straps
Brown suede Mary Jane ballerinas with a beautiful diamond shape are a must-have for any ballerina fan and more. Made of incredibly soft plant-based suede, they are the perfect option for long days and evenings. Two straps not only add to the ballerinas' charm, but also allow them to fit both narrow and wide feet. The low-heeled sole is a guarantee of comfort, and the stiffened heel allows the shoes to keep their shape for years to come.

About BOHEMA
BOHEMA is a Polish family brand founded in 2018 by Sebastian and Wioletta Szypula. Every pair is handcrafted in our Kolbuszowa atelier (southern Poland) by Sebastian's parents: Edward, master shoemaker with 30 years of experience, assembles each pair; Halina, seamstress, hand-sews the uppers from plant-based leather. Three generations, one workshop, small batches.
Care
Wipe with damp cloth and mild soap when dirty. Apply the plant-leather cream included with every order over €200 every 2-3 months. Air dry away from direct sun or heat. Store with shoe trees or rolled paper inside to keep shape.
Sizing & Fit

Questions about this product
What material are the Bohema Chocolate Mary Jane ballerinas made from?
These ballerinas are made from vegan plant-based suede, a cruelty-free alternative to traditional animal suede. They contain no animal-derived materials, making them fully vegan-friendly. Bohema crafts its shoes using innovative plant-based leather materials in handmade craft workshops in Poland.
Are these Mary Jane ballerinas good for wide feet or high instep?
The Chocolate Mary Jane Pumps feature two adjustable straps across the foot, which makes them a helpful fit option for a range of foot shapes. The strap closure allows some flexibility for a higher instep or a slightly wider foot, letting you adjust the fit rather than relying on a fixed slip-on silhouette. If you have a very wide foot, the double-strap design gives more room to customize the fit compared to a standard court pump.
What occasions are these Bohema brown ballerinas suitable for?
The Chocolate Mary Jane Pumps work well for everyday wear, office settings, and casual outings. Their timeless Mary Jane silhouette in warm chocolate brown pairs easily with trousers, midi skirts, dresses, and jeans. The thin, lightweight sole keeps them comfortable for longer wear, so they suit both weekday and weekend styling.
How should I care for vegan plant-based suede shoes like these Bohema ballerinas?
Vegan plant-based suede requires gentle care similar to conventional suede but without the use of animal-based conditioners. Brush the surface lightly with a soft suede brush to remove dust and restore the nap. Protect them from moisture with a vegan-friendly suede protector spray before first wear. Avoid prolonged exposure to water and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the colour and texture of the plant-based material.
