The Ira W is a dressed-up take on the classic Mary Jane, with a playful nod to the iconic Addams Family aesthetic. Featuring a rounded toe and a double welt that adds extra structure, this shoe is both bold and elegant. Crafted from high-gloss leather with a smooth surface, it rests on a crepe-structured outsole for excellent grip. Ira W is where timeless style meets a touch of edgy charm, making it a true statement piece.
Ira W reimagines the iconic Mary Jane — a shoe style known for its round toe and simple strap, once celebrated in the early 20th century as a symbol of innocence and charm. But Ira W flips that story. Crafted from high-gloss Polido leather, it transforms sweetness into sharpness and elegance into attitude. The round toe and double-welted sole strike the perfect balance between classic shapes and bold strength.
"With Ira W, we wanted to play with the idea of ‘cute but psycho.’ At first glance, it’s a classic Mary Jane — round toe, shiny leather, a sweet silhouette. But look closer and you’ll see the bold structure, the raw matte heel, and the rebellious energy underneath. It’s innocence with a twist — and a shoe made to surprise."
