ORIGINAL 

MARY JANE

Mary Jane was originally a character in a 1902 American comic strip  and Mary Jane’s popularity in the comic was enough to have a shoe named after her.

Subcultural re-appropriation found the Mary Jane a willing participant in new movements and in the 1990s and 2000s it won popularity as a subculture shoe being worn by Rockabillies, Goths and the adherents to the Kinderwhore and Lolita trends. For Underground, the Mary Jane is fused to the bold silhouette soles of the Original Creeper to create another subculture classic

WINKLEPICKERS

Winklepickers, were originally known as “poulaines” when these shoes were worn as a fashion and social statement. The longer the point of your shoe – then the higher your social status. The term Winklepicker was derived from using a sharp, pointed object to prise the sea-winkle from its shell.

The Underground Winklepicker Shoe and Boots styles uses an original 1950’s last shape on these classic Allgender styles.

We now offers all of the Classic Winklepickers directly from stock and ready to ship
