Artemis D'Orsay Mary Jane Review
I’m around 3 years into my barefoot shoe journey, and while I have found some shoes I genuinely love, I’ve struggled to find dress shoes that I like the way they look as much as how they feel. The options to this point have been limited to variations on the ballet flat. Shiny leather, suede, or knit? Classic ballet flat, Mary Jane, or t-strap? And that’s pretty much it. I’ve longed for a dress shoe with a sleeker profile and some more visual interest, and finally found a shoe that fits the bill from Carets: the Artemis D’Orsay Mary Jane . I’d seen Caret’s dress shoes for men awhile back. I was fascinated by the concept: a barefoot shoe that mimics the look of a conventional shoe. How, you may be wondering? In short, they add a sleek tapered toe to the end of a foot-shaped shoe so that you have plenty of room for splay. Their shoes are also zero drop, in true barefoot shoe fashion. I immediately sent a link to the Carets’ website to my dad, who has been quietly wearing barefoot shoes
