When Jane Fonda walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, the first thing I noticed wasn’t her long leopard-print coat or her beaded jumpsuit. No, it was the metallic Mary Janes peeking out from under her hem that became my obsession.

The silver shade — pretty much a Fonda staple at this point — immediately caught my eye. It was chic and the outfit enhanced without overwhelming her look. And paired with the trendy Mary Jane silhouette, which is both cute and practical, the shoes have become a must-have purchase for me. I was able to track down her exact style – these Mary Janes from the Margaux brand, whose flats I love – only to learn that they are almost sold out (but if your size East still available, grab them!). So I decided to find similar shoes and discovered eight lookalikes for Fonda’s metallic Mary Janes, starting at $30.

According to fans of the square-toe flats, the shoes have “lovely cushioning” that makes them surprisingly comfortable, with one person saying they felt great and held up well during their walking-heavy European vacation. Another person even called them better than a $200 pair she owns, writing that unlike their expensive Mary Janes, they are comfortable to walk in and don’t cause blisters.

Madewell’s silver Greta ballet flats are a favorite among In the style writers who say the shoes expertly combine the year’s hottest trends while providing support and comfort thanks to their cushioned insoles. Plus, they’re made from high-quality “butter-soft” leather that doesn’t need to be broken in, according to one customer, making the $98 price tag more than reasonable. Other fans love that they can wear these shoes anywhere and with anything, noting that they’ve worn them casually, to work, and even dressed up for dates.

These Sam Edelman flats make Fonda’s already trendy style even trendier, pairing silver leather detailing on the strap and toe with a mesh exterior. In case you missed it, barely-there mesh flats are one of the It shoes of 2024, worn by Jennifer Lawrence and Lopez, and shoppers are loving this style from Sam Edelman. A customer who once “hated” the apartments, calling them unsupportive and uncomfortable, said they had changed his mind. “They’re trendy, they’re sturdy and comfortable,” they exclaimed. And according to another shopper, these will be a “summer must-have” because they’re versatile, comfortable and breathable.
