Shiraz Flat (Women)

I am a 9w in most brands; I tried a similar flat recently (Sonoma) that did not work for me, so I knew these run a bit narrow. The 9WW was a really great fit for me; comfortable out of the box. The leather is soft and feels like high quality. The fit was really good for my foot: I have a wide forefoot and my heels are more average. My heels do not slip out and the cut out doesn't dig into my toe box in front. I have bunions and these are still comfortable, and although they hug my little toe, they don't rub or irritate. Compared to another brand of ballet flats I purchased at the same time, these look way more elegant and polished. There is pretty good arch support and the insole is removable. These are as close to perfect as I have gotten in my hunt for wide ballet flats recently. I'm very pleased and will order in another color.

Purchased the 5M and 5.5M in Luggage. The 5 was a little bit small, but the 5.5 was too big. Go figure. These have super soft insoles with great support, but after wearing the 5 around the house for an hour, rubbed my heels raw. Shouldn't be like that with a shoe this expensive - guess the leather isn't as good a quality as the price suggests. Also, the color was a little wonky on the back of one of the shoes, it was a little darker than the rest of the show. Again, not the quality I'd expect for a show that costs this much. Returning.
