Cute and comfortable - I was pleasantly surprised by these shoes. I usually like pointy toes, but these square toes are very cute with a retro look. The ankle strap is a good size and is removable. I am going to replace it sometimes with a long ribbon for an espadrille/ballerina look!

Red not as appears! Just received this shoe in the red and what a difference from the photo! I bought it because it looked bright, lipstick red which would be fun for spring/summer. I opened the box and found dark, brick red shoes...bummer!!! But the style is really cute! I would need a size 5 instead of 5 1/2 because the toe is really low cut and makes it look too big on my feet. It's worth checking out though because it's really cute and comfy. Just don't expect the colors to be bright as shown, especially the red.

Beautiful Ballet - This wonderful shoe makes me want to just dance. I ordered the 8W and they are true to size and the fit is perfect. This shoe is exquisitely made and the inside reminds me of the ballet shoes I had as a child. The ankle strap is comfortable and removable so you could change the look and thread ribbon for something different. Endless possibilities with this little ballet shoe.

Cute, but... While this shoe is adorable, it is not without its problems. The sole has no cushioning so it offers no shock-absorption at all. The ankle strap is much too generous, I will have to send it to the shoe shop to be cut down at least three inches and have another hole punched into it. Not worth the trouble.

Spring winner - Love this shoe. Although, no support, and I work in retail (on my feet all day), this shoe is comfortable. I use a pad in the ball of my foot for additional comfort. I found it very feminine for any fashion look, capri, jean, any pant! My bunion is covered with this ballet style flat, a fact I must consider. I did buy this in wide as well. It doesn't look like a boat on either. Comfy, current, and feminine!

These shoes are really cute! I agree with another reviewer that the ankle strap is abnormally long. I have larger ankles and I was using one of the first two holes, so if you have tiny ankles, you may have to get extra holes punched. Super cute shoe!

Cute shoes - These are really cute shoes. I love the purple. You will probably have to put extra holes in the ankle strap. I did. They were a too loose. Also, the ankle strap looks like patent leather. I was not expecting that.

Cute shoe - The toe box is narrower than it should be. Although the top is leather, it is lined with vinyl so not sure that the toe box will relax over time. Would be better if all leather where it would mold to the foot.

Super cute shoe! I love this shoe. The boxy-square toe makes it look like a true ballet shoe. The dark brown color makes this shoe look more dressy. Like some reviewers have said, the strap is way too long - you'll have to punch an extra hole in it to buckle it around your ankle. It's still worth the price of the shoe, which I felt fit true to size. And they were comfortable from the moment I put them on!

Great Shoes! Great Price! The shoes are both comfortable and look great! Have worn them every day since they arrived! I had to exchange this style as they run large; I plan on buying more as the colors become available!

Love it! Dancing shoes for people with tender toes. This is the perfect dress shoe for dancing! I have bunions, so I can't wear heels and I need a square toe box. But I LOVE dancing. These flats are absolutely perfect; comfortable, low, good toe wiggle room and an ankle strap so they stay on tight. Thanks to the reviewer who warned about the length of the strap size - it was pretty long and I had to create a new hole.

I just received these shoes today and they are so cute and comfortable. I agree that the ankle strap is a bit long, and will go to a cobbler to punch a couple more holes in it. As one reviewer noted, if you have bunion problems, this shoe works well because the front part is not too low on the foot and it has good toe coverage.

Great without the strap - Very cute shoe, but the ankle strap pulls and rubs and is too long. I just pulled the ankle strap out and wear them all the time without. Much more comfortable that way, and they look great with the boxy toe!
