Jax & Bard is a women's comfort footwear brand built on one idea: shoes should feel as good as they look. Every sandal, clog, and slide in the collection is designed around a contoured footbed with built-in arch support and a sculpted heel cup, giving you the kind of all-day comfort that most fashion brands ignore. Our Contour Collection is crafted for women who refuse to choose between style and support — whether you're walking the French Quarter, standing through a workday, or traveling light on vacation.
Founded by designer Jackie Lindstedt and now owned by Phil and Renée Piediscalzo of Orleans Shoe Co., Jax & Bard brings together independent design roots and over three decades of hands-on fitting experience across four retail stores in the New Orleans metro area. We've fitted thousands of women with arch support needs, plantar fasciitis, and hard-to-fit feet — and that real-world knowledge is engineered directly into every Jax & Bard style. From the Fern leather sandal to the Ambitious raffia slide to the Annalise II, each shoe is built with honest materials, clean lines, and a fit that works from the first step.
Jax & Bard sandals and slides are available online at jaxshoes.com and in-store at all Orleans Shoe Co. locations in New Orleans and Metairie, Louisiana. We ship nationwide with free returns.
