New Treads?

I am always on the hunt for a good shoe. As a mama I want a shoe that performs well. As a woman I want something that's stylish. Can the two factors merge? Yes. Yes they can.

Jumi's Australian designer Stuart Clarke created these shoes after his wife, Monique, complained she couldn't find a suitable shoe to go walking in. They both realised there was a real void in women's wardrobes. A ballet flat that performs like a sneaker. HELLO! The new range of Jumi shoes were born.

How's that for design ingenuinity?

They have a superior fit, they don't sag or gape like regular ballet flats, and they come in half sizes.

Jumi was created for the modern glamour girl – for the girl who likes to mix and match high fashion elements with her own street style.

Check out their website for the full range (priced between $89.95-99.95) and they're all leather to boot (except the sole of course, that's a ridiculously awesome rubber sole).

Um, just quietly, they are just too too cute. Just love that black and pearl combo, with a cute bow to boot.

ooh very nice! I checked out their website and they say they make big sizes... but alas when I emailed them about said big sizes they replied "no big sizes" for this range. maybe later.
I know you're a tall gal like me PMM... do you have the curse of the big feet too?
