Bensimon shoes

You know Bensimon sneakers, which are basically the French girl's Converse? Well, I've been spotting this laceless version around town recently. Aren't they adorable? Bonus: They look cute with shorts!

I'd totally wear the red ones.

amy said...

So cute-- and something tells me they'd be awfully comfy.

Hollie said...

I love these!! I am not a fan of the laced version, but these are super cute.

I'm a big Tom's fan, so I rarely stray, but these are adorable.

Jade said...

I love these shoes!!

wallflower said...

I like the blue ones.
But I rarely buy new shoes because I can't afford them. Haha.

Alejandra Ramos said...

Those are so cute! I have one pair of slip-on sneakers that I can never wear because they're just a smidge too big (bought them at Aldo which only sells whole sizes; I'm a 9.5).

There is something just so fun about a pair of bright red sneakers!

Cara said...

Super cute to throw on for a bike ride down the boardwalk (or at least that's when I would wear them)...

Happenstance said...

Yes, these are the best! And they sell them for the mini's over at Crewcuts too! Love.

Tanya (a Taste of T) said...

I bet they look really cute in skirts too. Might have to buy some. I keep wearing the most uncomfortable sandals while downtown. No bueno.

Joanna Goddard said...

no way, happenstance! that's so cute!! and yes, they are SUPER comfy -- i have the lace-up sneakers, and wore them every day of my honeymoon last summer and am still wearing them!

Maria said...

These would be adorable boat shoes! I may have to give them a try.

Avery Bleu said...

So adorable. I really think I need them!

lisaroy said...

These are so cute! I'm a sneaker girl but love to have some without laces for shorts and capris. I need these!

Meg said...

Lady Grey said...

hip hip gin gin said...

Love these! Cute and they look comfy. I might have to get a pair. I can never keep my laces tied anyway, this might just be the perfect summer shoe for me!

Maki said...

If they have kddie size, it'll be so cute for you and your baby to do the pair look together, Joanna - Mama with red and your lil prince with blue sneakers :)

Brooke Reynolds said...

I was this close to buying some at Madewell when I was in the city last week.. I just couldn't decide on a color!

Dressing On The Side said...

Rachel said...

Those are ADORABLE! I might need a red pair for summer; I'm always trying to bring out my inner French girl.

Nicole Marie said...

and they look so comfy!

LINDSAY said...

I don't know, the toes sort of look like they've been dipped in paint. Maybe it's glue around the toes? Thinking I like the lace up version better.

mina said...

i need shoes like this for the ridiculous amount of walking i do. i hope i can find a pair in nyc, it makes me nervous to order shoes online.

Good Girls Studio said...

So cute! I always feel like a dork when I wear tennis shoes out in public :)

jennifer lorton said...

Love, love, the taupe lace up's and the dusty grape colored ones. I think I'd wear them all the time.

Joanna Goddard said...

Lanie said...

I've been wanting Toms for a while, and now I have to add these to my list! So cute.

E said...

Man, I think that if you want these, you should go for Toms shoes instead. Because they kind of look like this, are equally expensive and for SUCH a good cause (negates the price!). What kid DOESN'T need shoes? They are also incredibly comfortable.

And that's weird because the comment above is also about Toms. Hm. I'm such a believer in Toms!

bright lights, big cities said...

I love that you called it a "french converse" so true!

juliana said...

Hi! I think the ones you are seeing are from Old Navy actually... Believe it or not!

caroline said...

amynicole said...

Oh my gosh! How comfortable are these?! I WANT!

The Duchess said...

Heading off to the shops now to buy myself a pair, but which colour? Hmmm, might be there for awhile.....

blue moss said...

I've totally been wanting a pair of the laceless ones....I just posted about a pair of bright yellow ones I found (with the laces) ...so many great bensimons.....what to do? What to do?

pita bakery said...

Must get a pair. It's just too good that you can slip them on and not worry about laces coming undone when you have your hands full (that always happens to me).

Ashley said...

I own three pairs of Bensimons - LOVE THEM. I bought my first pair in France 4 years ago and still have them (a cute pink laceless version)... they last forever.

mama bear said...

I love Bensimons. I have had my pink pair for years... They are the ones with laces but i have taken them out.

Are you getting a pair? You should!

"Ow! What?"

My brothButterfly Headphoneser-in-law had reached across the aisle and punched me in the leg. He'd been trying tDiddybeats Headphones
o get my attention for a while.

"How do the headHeartbeats by Lady Gagaphones sound?"

"They sound good, jerk. I couldn't hear a Monster Beats Lamborghinithing you were saying." Apparently, the Beats' noise-canceling feature was working as advertised.

I had just discovered it. Moments earlier,Monster Ferrari Limited Edition I'd settled into my seat and plugged the Beats' seductive red cable into my iPod Nano's minMonster Kobe Bryanti-jack. I'd selected an album and pressed Play. Nothing.

Included in the Beats' impressive packaging aMonster Miles Davis Tributere two Duracell AAA batteries. I hadn't installed them. I removed the headMonster Turbine
phones and searched all over for a battery compartment. Again: Nothing. I was perplexed. And charley-horsed.

stop using old fashioned shoes..its a new world and we all have to go with it...
Vans Shoes are funky, famous and fashionable, they are also sensationally comfortable with their cushioned rubber soles and padding around heel. ...

I really want to buy these, but just can't bring myself to do it without knowing something: On the Bensimon site, every pair seems to have an issue with its rubber sole. It's smeared all over the canvas part of the shoe right where they come together. That part rubs off after a while, right? It looks so cheap, otherwise! Can you reassure me, oh wise Bensimon vet?
