Mary Jane Kids Two-Tone Velvet
Family tradition at Piedaterre has always meant something tangible — the same silhouettes, the same techniques, the same workshop at the Rialto Bridge, shared across generations. The Mary Jane Kids Two-Tone velvet Friulane embodies that idea by bringing together the playfulness of dual-shade color and the beloved Mary Jane strap in a slipper built for younger feet. Since 1952, Piedaterre has crafted handmade children's slippers with the unwavering belief that artisanal quality should be experienced at every age — and this two-tone edition adds a chromatic dimension that lets children express their own emerging sense of style alongside their parents.
Each upper pairs two carefully selected tones of 100% cotton velvet, creating a contrast that delights the eye without overwhelming the Mary Jane's graceful proportions. The rounded toe provides a soft, accommodating fit, while the instep strap — that essential Mary Jane signature — holds the slipper firmly in place with secure yet comfortable ease. The two-tone palette adds visual depth to the silhouette's clean lines, making each pair feel distinctly personal. Grosgrain trim in a coordinating shade bridges the two velvet tones along every edge with seamless accuracy. A Venetian glass pearl, hand-set on the outer side, contributes a touch of Murano magic — a detail that children treasure. A cotton lining within keeps sensitive young feet cool and dry throughout the day.
Matching Piedaterre styles across generations is a family tradition that begins with the quality shared between adult and children's pairs. The same Friulane construction technique applies regardless of size: the two-tone velvet upper is stitched directly to the sole without glue of any kind, by artisans who treat a child's shoe with the same precision and patience they bring to every model in the collection. Aligning two velvet shades at this scale demands particular care — the pile direction must be consistent across both tones, or the seam will betray itself under changing light. Production takes place entirely in Italy, preserving a chain of custody from raw cotton velvet to finished slipper. For the single-color version, see the Mary Jane Kids Velvet.
The Mary Jane Kids Two-Tone pairs naturally with weekend outfits, party dresses, and everything a child encounters between celebrations and everyday adventures. Its color combinations let parents and children match with the adult Mary Jane Two-Tone — the kind of coordinated detail that makes occasions memorable. A flexible rubber sole with cushioned heel area absorbs the constant motion of childhood, providing comfort that endures from the first moments of the morning to the final sleepy steps of the evening. This model offers a generous fit — choosing one size down from the usual gives the most secure hold.

Piedàterre velvet Friulane require simple maintenance to preserve their beauty over time:
Daily cleaning: gently brush with a velvet brush following the grain in circular motions.
Light stains: dab with a damp cloth without rubbing. Allow to air dry, away from direct heat sources.
Storage: store the Friulane in a dry place. Avoid compressing the velvet to prevent crushing the fibers.
Being entirely handmade artisan footwear, careful maintenance ensures long-lasting wear.
For other fabrics such as silk or wool, we recommend contacting our customer service.
Yes, slight differences in shade between the color displayed on screen and the actual product color are possible. This depends on several factors: monitor calibration, the lighting conditions in which the photo was taken and viewed, and the artisanal nature of the velvet dyeing process, which can produce minor variations between batches.
Some colors, such as Azure, are particularly sensitive to these perception differences. We constantly strive to make our photographs as accurate as possible.
