I have 4 pair of the Wildflower Mary Jane style. I got my 1st pair at least 4 years ago, in a chain store, in the red, vegan & called Wildflowers. They are virtually identical to the shoes offered as the TSV. My 2nd pair are vegan, Denim color like the TSV, but they have 2 straps forming a X across the top of my foot instead of the ankle strap. I like this style better, I find they are more comfortable. I think that pair is at least 3 years old. The last 2 pair are leather with the X straps. 1 pair is black, 1 pair is a light tan. They both came from Shoescom probably 2 years ago. The Mary-Jane colors & styles rarely change.
I also have 2 pair of a slip on Mary Jane clog style, I Black & 1 a darker Denim. I orig. only bought those to wear when flying. They are easy to get on & off for the TSA screening, but I found them to be very comfy too!
I have 4 pair of the JSport -Regatta shoes. VERY comfortable straight out of the box for all day walking on any surface. I go down 1/2 size in these.
And I have 4 pair of the JSport -Tahoe Encore, which is an airy stretch sneaker with a memory foam footbed-like walking on pillows. They are harder to get on, but once on your feet ….OH MY! The soles on this style are not as “rugged” as the rest of my collection.
So JBU JSPORT & JAMBU different names but the same company. Great shoes! -
And with all that’s going on you want to worry about the price difference and the older and newer version there is nothing wrong with an older version they look just as good as any versions cause they are all the same and we all can agree the least expensive version saves money all the time

The shoes today are vegan which is not real leather

Oh good Lord! If you go to ShopHQ and put in Jambu Mary Jane’s in the search, you may see what I’m saying. Their average price is $43-49 for vegan Mary Jane’s and they’re also the older styles. Now compare that price to the vegan Mary Jane that HSN has as a TS. Also, the overall inventory of ShopHQ, is vegan with the one exception of the older version of the shoe called Naomi. That bootie type shoe is known as a Jambu Original. All shoes that fall under “original” are real suede or leather. That’s where I see about a $30 price difference with HSN being higher. With that being said, HSN also has the most updated style/colors which may be why there is a $30 difference.

As Joyce2 said they are a lot less on shophq and they have similar styles

When it comes to the Mary Jane’s, the prices are basically the same. Shop HQ, sell more of the vegan leathers which are cheaper than the Jamu Originals that HSN have which are real leather and suede. The largest price gap I see if for the Naomi. Shop HQ’s price, $97.22 plus 6.99 shipping. ShopHQ is the older style. HSN’s price is, $126.36 with updated colors. Shipping $5.50.

Beware of what exactly? These are not on ShopHQ (formerly Evine) They are a new style? Can you tell us how they fit? Arch support? Made well and durable? That would be helpful to know. 😁

The Jambu selection on ShopHQ are not the same and prices are pretty similar. HSN shipping is .50 more. As far as Zulily is concerned, they have broken sizes and your item ships out 1yr from now. LOL! Anyway, I have several pairs of Jambu’s all purchased from ShopHQ. They are really comfortable and so cute. I like Bzees too but sometimes find Bzees too squishy…causing ankle pain. Jambu’s are comfortable but really supportive. I hope that helps. 😊
