“My Sunshine Suede Manakin's are exactly what I need to brighten my day in this current environment. They are comfortable to be worn all day and the design makes them a lot more than a court shoe. And its surprising how many colors they can be worn with - very versatile - I love them!”
“These shoes are so versatile. Can be worn with jeans, skirts, dresses; can take you from the office and then out in the evening. The beige colour is a perfect nude. And so, so comfortable! I have several pairs of Bared shoes; in fact this is the only brand I buy now as I can always rely on them to be comfortable.”
“The manakin are my first pair of bared shoes and I love them so much! They look beautiful and flattering on the foot, and feel very sturdy and well made - not flimsy like a lot of ballet flats can be. The pointed toe and cross over straps look delicate and refined. I ordered the nude and I love them so much I’m thinking of investing in the black or white pair (or both!) to wear to work.
After reading other reviews, I saw that quite a few people had recommended sizing down. I’m normally a size 39 (8.5), with an average to slightly narrow foot, and I ordered the size 38 which fits perfectly. V. comfy.
I’m so impressed with the quality, I can’t wait to try other styles of bared shoes :)”
“These are very stylish and dressy and surprisingly comfortable. There’s some ‘toe cleavage’ at the front for me, but I still really like them. The snake print adds a bit of edgy elegance to black, white, grey and denim.”
