The Jennie Flat Black Leather
The Jennie Flat brings the elegance of a dressed-up shoe without the heel. From weddings and dinners to days that start early and end late, it offers polish without compromising on comfort. In black leather, it works with tailored trousers, denim and a blazer or a favourite dress. Slip it into your suitcase for evenings away, then add a clip-on rose or bow when you want something extra. One versatile flat with ways to wear it.
Like all Blankens shoes, The Jennie Flat is handcrafted in a small, family-run factory in northern Portugal. We use European leather sourced from Gold Rated Leather Working Group tanneries, ensuring high quality craftsmanship, responsible sourcing, and a lower environmental impact.
At Blankens, we are a small group of women designing shoes for our own lives. We wear and test every style ourselves, carefully working through fit, function, and feeling — making sure each shoe has a clear purpose in the wardrobe. We make the shoes that make the outfit — and they are comfortable too.
The Jennie Flat is a women’s flat made in black leather with a warm camel leather lining that catches the light with every step. It features a clean, feminine silhouette with a softly squared toe and slim straps that cross the foot, creating a secure yet elegant fit. Designed to be worn simply for everyday ease or styled with Blankens’ clip-on roses or bows, it moves effortlessly from casual summer days to dinners, parties, and travel — a flat that adapts to your life, not the other way around.
Treat your shoes to make them last longer! Regular care keeps your shoes beautiful, soft, and strong. By cleaning, conditioning, and protecting the leather, you preserve its suppleness, prevent cracks, and maintain its natural shine. Think of it as skincare — for your most trusted companions. A small ritual that makes a big difference, keeping your Blankens favorites fresh and ready for every season.
We recommend using a protective spray, such as the Water Proofer, before first wear and reapply regularly to guard against moisture and stains.
Don't forget the inside. Refresh the insole by cleaning it with The Foam Cleaner.
We recommend storing them in a cool, dry place when not in use, with a shoe tree or paper stuffing to maintain shape. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct heat.
The inner sole length is measured from heel to toe. Add a bit of extra space for the feet. For shoes with a pointed toe, keep in mind that your foot will not extend all the way into the pointed end.
