I bought these shoes in black patent leather. Not only are they flattering to the foot but they are also incredibly comfortable, even after 8 hours of wearing them. I think of myself as a very stylish person and would highly recommend these shoes. I am a big fan of French Sole!

Although I’m usually a size 10 1/2, this shoe runs roomy so I took a 10. Very very comfy; does not irritate my wide feet.
Brands I'd also recommend: A flat Stuart Weitzman.

Extremely comfortable ballet flat. I found this newer version of the Passport to be slightly bigger than the original one (that had a leather sole and heel). While I'm an 8 in many brands, the 7.5 French Sole usually fits me like a glove.

Great ballerina flats! I\'ve had bad luck with ballerina flats in the past, but I was pleasantly surprised by these. They fit very well (true to size), are super comfortable, and they are well made. Since I am not used to wearing super-flat shoes, I put an insole in them for a little added padding, but they are comfortable with or without the insole. I would not recommend these shoes if you are going to be seriously pounding the pavement all day -- I tried this and my feet did get sore, but for work or just strolling around town they are great! I\'m so glad that I decided to give them a try! I\'m looking forward to my next pair of French Sole shoes.

Great ballet flats, but I wished I had bought them 1/2 size smaller, as they run large...

About French Sole
The design of the shoes is what makes French Sole stand out from the plethora of companies that have sought to emulate their formula for success. Only French Sole combines a true ballerina fit (each shoe molds to the wearer's foot) for the ultimate in comfort with cutting edge fashion and a selection that is unmatched – qualities that clients come to expect and appreciate from French Sole Shoes. But aside from the myriad variety of ballet and other shoes available, it's the people behind French Sole that have really made it a success.
French Sole Shoes is owned by Randy Ochart, who has passionately focused on designing, manufacturing and marketing the hottest ballet flats in the world from Spain, Italy, France and Brazil. When asked about the future of ballerinas as a category, Ochart explained, "In a phase when it seems that everybody feels the need to re-invent the ballerina, we stand alone as specialists. The extraordinary factories we have worked with for so many years understand the distinction between a ballerina and a flat shoe with a string attached." The fit, look, and hand of a ballerina is what French Sole is about, not just a hot trend.

I originally purchased this great shoe using my normal shoe size of 8 1/2. The shoe runs long and I had to return it for a size 8 which fit perfectly. This elegant little slipper shoe is incredibly comfortable and can be worn dressed up or dressed down. I've had so many compliments on this shoe! A great find and definitely worth the money.

These shoes are great looking; however, they definitely run large. I am always a size 8 especially in ballet flats and the size 8 was quite large on me. Waiting to receive the 7 1/2.

Lovely ballet flat! Very well constructed and rich looking. Very comfortable for a ballet flat - must be the rubber sole construction! I read all the comments about sizing down a half size, but I often find ballet flats a bit tight/uncomfortable on ball of foot (bunion!) so I ordered my usual size and they are perfect! Will definitely order again.

First bought these shoes in London twelve years ago and they\'re still terrific for the price...although the price keeps going up. Good fit, good wear. They do stretch, so think about that when buying.

I am already a big fan of French Sole ballerinas. Passport is one of their mire structured styles, and has rubber soles versus leather so they make a good city/travel shoe. These ran a little bigger than my usual size 9B but I would not have gone down to 8.5.

Very comfortable shoe and looks good for work. I ordered an 8 although I wear an 8.5 overall and sometimes a 9, and the shoe fit perfectly.

Okay, shoes are never comfortable on my feet, but these shoes were comfortable out of the box. The leather is soft as butter. I wear Chanel, Marni, Louboutin, and other high quality shoes. No other shoe is this soft and comfortable. I would like to order this shoe in black and am also wondering about the comfort level of other styles. I have wide feet. I felt like they were a perfect fit. How remarkable.

These took some "breaking" in, but once they were, they fit fine. They are a half size larger, but that was OK for me. Absolutely no arch support. Overall, though, one of the more comfortable "flats" I have owned.

These are really a "Chanel" look alike, very flexible and comfortable. The sizing is just slightly off - for me not quite a half size large, but maybe I will put in a heel grabber. A half size smaller would be too small I think. I almost sent them back (somewhat pricey and not quite perfect sizewise), but they have such great style and comfort, I know they will be my "go to" shoe for traveling. I do love the looks of them because they are both casual and dressy. I am sure the heel grabber (or whatever you call those things that stick on the back) will do the trick.

These shoes are very comfortable. The sole moves well with walking, it is not stiff like many others of its ilk. I have sensitive feet that cannot tolerate shoes that squeeze my toes or are too tight around my metatarsals. These are a dream-- they look like Chanels but are comfortable!

The quilted leather is very soft and accommodates the width of one's foot without pressure. After wearing these over the course of a month, I liked them so much I bought a pair in black as well. You can dress these up or wear them casually. I am able to walk in them for the entire day without any discomfort. Worth the splurge! Pay attention to the notation on the sizing. I wear a 9, but an 8 1/2 fits fine in these.
