Mara ballerinas in soft vegan leather are the quintessence of classics combined with nonchalance. The classic cut with a rounded nose gets a fresh look thanks to subtle details - minimalist bows and a wide strap with an industrial buckle, which adds to their character. The thin and flexible sole ensures comfortable wear. Perfect for nonchalant styling with an oversize jacket and jeans, as well as for a sensual summer dress. We will wear them with everything, how about you?
About the Material

About BOHEMA
BOHEMA is a Polish family brand founded in 2018 by Sebastian and Wioletta Szypula. Every pair is handmade in Poland in our family-run workshops, using plant-based leather. Three generations, one story, 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
BOHEMA uses European sizing 35-42. True to size for most feet. If between sizes, size up half — plant-based leather softens with wear but does not stretch significantly.

Questions about this product
What material are the Bohema Mara Chocolate ballet flats made from?

Are the Bohema Mara Pumps ballet flats good for narrow or wide feet?
The Mara ballet flats are designed with a classic, close-fitting silhouette typical of ballerina pumps, which tends to suit narrow to medium-width feet best. If you have wide feet or a high instep, the ankle strap helps secure fit, but sizing up may be worth considering for extra comfort.
What outfits can I style the chocolate brown Mara ballet flats with?
The chocolate brown color makes these ballet flats incredibly versatile. They pair beautifully with wide-leg trousers, midi skirts, straight-cut jeans, or flowy dresses. The ankle strap adds a delicate detail that works for both casual daytime looks and smart-casual office outfits.
Are the Bohema Mara ballet flats handmade?
Yes, the Mara ballet flats are handmade in Poland in a craft workshop, following small-batch production standards. This means careful attention to detail and quality at every step, using plant-based vegan leather throughout.
