BUYER BEWARE: Pretty to look at, NOT practical

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I bought these flats while I was in NYC, sorta just poked in and made the purchase because my friend was working the counter and got me a discount. I was in need of flats and these were recommended to me by her, and I sort of fell for it because it was real leather. But the reality is these shoes are not comfortable, AT ALL. They WILL give you blisters and you WILL be disabled by the time you break them in. It's just a shame because I was really excited for them but when it came time to break them in, I'm on day three and these things are not budging in the slightest. I'm not really sure what to do with, they're just rotting in my closet until I can find someone to pass them off to b/c I can't even return them after trying to break them in for so long. Least I can redeem the points

Great flats- amazing leather

Beautiful leather and very comfortable. Recommend sizing down a half size. They do run a bit narrow

Not at all true to size

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super cute shoes but I’ve been a true size six for a decade. So much so that I haven’t tried shoes on in years. The pair I received are huge! I legit thought they sent me the wrong size. I’m super confused, are they supposed to be one entire size too big? I’m afraid to return them for a size down because that might be too tight. What am I missing here?

Most comfortable ballet flats

These ballet flats truly feel like authentic ballet flats. Made me nostalgic for my childhood ballet days. There was a little bit of a breaking in period on one of my feet but that might be me having weird feet. Otherwise, these are incredibly comfortable, and I would highly recommend. I have flat and wide feet and have no problems in these. Not sure how they would do for all day wear walking since they are pretty flat with little arch support. I mostly wear them around the office.

Most comfy shoes

These are the most comfortable shoes! No breaking in necessary. I wish they came in multiple colors!
