Jean Smart’s $30 Mary Jane Sneakers Are the Cool-Girl Alternative

Us Weekly reports Jean Smart recently walked out of ABC Studios in a pair of Tigeridea Silver Mary Jane Sneakers that had fashion fans doing a double take. The shoes blend the silhouette of a ballet flat with the support of a sneaker, giving you a lightweight, retro look that feels a lot cooler than the bulky dad sneakers everyone’s been wearing.

Smart kept the rest of the outfit simple: black pants, a white top, a cardigan and a slouchy shoulder bag. But the real statement was on her feet. The Tigeridea sneakers, which normally cost $50, are currently $30 on Amazon. They’re made from metallic vegan leather with suede accents, chunky rubber soles and contrast stripes. One shopper told Us Weekly that the shoes held up through a multi-day conference, saying they “bridge the gap between commuting and office shoes” and that “the underfoot feel is pure ‘athletic sneaker.’”

Mary Jane sneakers have been bubbling up as the chic alternative to chunky sneakers for a while now, and Smart’s look just confirms it. They work with cropped trousers, midi skirts and wide-leg jeans, which means you’ll actually wear them. At $30, this is the kind of find that makes you feel like you have a stylist in your pocket.

As of publication, Us Weekly confirms the price is accurate but subject to change. If you want to nail Smart’s functional and fashionable look, this is it.
