Discover the shades of The Hummingbird Mary Jane velvet flats. Compare black, empire blue, pink multi stripe, and pink multi tweed to find your perfect match.
Quick answer
Choose The Hummingbird Mary Jane in Black Velvet for a classic wardrobe staple, Empire Blue Velvet for a bold pop of color, Hot Pink Multi Stripe for playful contrast, or Pink Multi Tweed for a romantic, textured look.
Color and fabric: what to consider
The Hummingbird Mary Jane comes in several velvet and textured options. Velvet has a soft, plush feel and a subtle sheen that catches the light. The fabric choice affects both the look and how the shoe pairs with your wardrobe.
Black Velvet is the most versatile, matching almost anything. Empire Blue Velvet is vibrant and makes a statement. Hot Pink Multi Stripe uses grosgrain fabric for a patterned, sporty feel. Pink Multi Tweed is a blush rose tweed woven with over 20 colors for a complex, Parisian-chic texture.
Consider your existing wardrobe and the occasions you'll wear them. A neutral shade works for daily wear and office outfits, while a bright or patterned pair adds personality to casual looks.
Barefoot Ballerina technology across colors
All Hummingbird Mary Janes share the same Barefoot Ballerina technology: a flexible satin-lined sock that bends with your foot, plus full arch support and seven layers of cloud-like comfort. The elastic strap lets you slip them on and off without unbuckling.
Your color choice does not affect comfort or fit. Focus on the aesthetic and how the color complements your style.
