Description

This legendary 2.5-inch heeled Mary Jane was inspired by Maria Malibran, one of the most famous opera singers of the 19th century, who was known for her extraordinary flexibility, range, and power. With glossy leathers, soft rubber soles, and a leather-wrapped heel, this shoe could possibly be the most functional and comfortable Fluevog ever. The Malibran will be your everyday, dress-up, dress-down, favourite pair of shoes perfect for anything and everything (which is almost impossible). Your love makes me sing.

Check out #vog_malibran to see them in the wild!

The first shoe you pull out of the closet

I had a pair and I loved them. They were my spring and summer shoe. I'm not embarrassed to admit I cried when I wore them out.

I had a pair of 1st edition Malibran Black with the White backstitch. A total success! I go so many compliments. The backstitch on a different colour reallty adds a great punch. I used them at the office they are the ultimate super confort. Obviously, they are too worn out. Time to get a second pair, but In my opinion, the 2nd edition of Malibran Black with the Black backstitch (black on black) does not has the same punch effect. Hope one day they will be re-edited black with white.

I would love to get this ones. I had them in black and white. A huge success! Love them but they are worn out. I have about 7 pairs of Fluevog in my collection. The reason I did not jump to get this ones is the quality finish. A close look, there is a white kind of leather underneath or at the back of the backstitch that give is a 'not well finish, cheap' look. The patten leather looks kind of too thin, wrinkles show around the leather used. Sorry to be so opinionated. I stirred at them and my heart goes. Thank you for this chance

I’m in love with my Malibran shoes. I’m true 6W, I took the chance on ordering half a size up. To my surprised the shoes are wide enough for my wide feet!!! I’ve could’ve gotten getting size 6 since the shoes are a bit long. Its a keeper.

😍 I need these in all the colors

I had been looking at these for a while thinking there was no way my feet would like them. Lo and behold, I tried them on and it was like they were made for me. I have wide feet and long toes too, so my feet can be fussy. I’m usually a 9.5 or 10 depending on the shoe and I felt like dancing out of the store with these in a 10. I need them in a full rainbow of colors to make my feet happy every day.

Comfort guaranteed!

I love the Operetta and Soprano family, as my fussy feet need coddling. My Stefanis and my Cavalieris are both a perfect 6.5, but these were a bit narrow across the forefoot and were rubbing. Kristen in Dallas graciously worked with me on sizing, and after a thin metatarsal pad and my arch supports, the 7 are a hair long but otherwise fit perfectly. The straps keep them nice and secure. I love the look of these heels, and the first day I wore them for 6 hours on my feet with zero discomfort. So glad I finally have my own Malibrans! Now I need more colors.

Just adore the Malibran

The Malibran in wine is the shoe that they will one day bury me in - I just love them and feel like they were built just for me every time I put them on. Usually I wear a 9, although some Vog styles I need a 9.5, and these fit perfectly in 9.

I have these shoes in both colours and everything everyone else says is true: I can walk to work in them and work on my feet all day and walk home and my feet feel good. Everyone compliments them or my outfit when I wear them. I wear them with bare feet in summer and stockings in winter.

Oooh, baby!

I bought these and another pair of fluevogs at the same time as my first purchase. I got them in the red colour. I have to disagree with the shoe expert's take on them for fit: I am a wide hoofed gal and I didn't need to get them stretched at all, so I feel they fit a bit wide since the toe box is so forgiving. The only thing about them that I had an issue with is that I found the stitching on the inside along the top scratchy to wear with bare feet. Solved easily with sockies and I was a happy girl. The heel is nice and low, so I can wear them all day at work - and I walk a LOT at work. Love these and would even consider purchasing in a second colour.

Runs small at least one size in my opinion

I am normally I'm 11/11.5 or 42/43 . The size 12 in these don't fit in length. Very bummed. Fix your lasts! I lived in Sweden growing up and a 41 has always been a size US 10.

Please bring back the black and white Malibrans. Mine are way run out which I would like to replace plus I go so many compliments. Love them so much. Also, I notice there were Cherry and White colour Malibrans, Peach Malibrans, and White and Orange Malibrans, these colors were never available in Montreal. Why?

Pure love!

I bought these shoes for a black tie wedding, and have never felt more elegant. I was at the wedding from 6 pm and continued dancing at the after hours event until 4 am. I was the only women still wearing shoes, and my feet were so comfortable. That was my first even wearing them, no blisters. I have also walked 10 km home from the opera in them, and they still look perfect. I have had very painful foot issues in the past, and have been treated for neuromas and wear orthics as well, so my feet are not exactly easy to please. Best shoes ever!

They are so cute, but what you don’t know - yet - is they are also unbelievable comfortable! Dancing check. Walking checking. Rubber soles with wide heel you’re all good. The wine colour is perfect. Great buy!

I bought my first pair of Malibrans in 2009 and just bought my 7th color last week--the utterly fabulous navy. I also have Enthusiast in blue/pink/orange and worried they'd seem too much alike, but the Malibran navy is darker and the pink stitching really pops. I'd been dithering over a few other styles and this shoe immediately became a must-have-right-this-very-minute one, no second-guessing. My smaller Fluevog size of 7.5 is still just right.

Maddie from our NY store says:

This comfortable and stable heel will fit an average-width foot nicely, unless you wear a women's 6-7.5, you may find these short in the toe box, so we recommend a half size bigger for a better fit.
