Shoes looked great, but are narrower than a standard 10 D, I couldn't even get my foot into the things.

I always know that I can order the same size Fallens and get the perfect shoe, every time. I love these. Sturdy enough if you're trying to skate, decent if you're not, the only thing I would improve if I could grant some wishes would be the toecaps - look sturdy, rip after a while when the griptape pulls on them. These shoes in particular felt broken in the first time I wore them; kudos.

My son had a pair of Fallen shoes last year, and they held up and looked so good after alot of wear he decided to get Fallen's again. The quality is high and the prices are fair in my opinion. He is very happy with the shoes. They come with white laces too if you want to change them up. He just started wearing them 3 days ago, but like I said the last pair was excellent and I expect this pair to be long lived and comfortable as well.

Got these today and once I laced them up, it was incredibly hard to get them on. I have fairly normal feet in terms of width, and it took a lot of effort to squeeze these guys on. They look great, but I'll be returning them.

These shoes shipped really fast. Great job, Zappos! I rode BMX with these shoes and they worked great but if you landed on your feet hard your feet would hurt. Also after a while of wearing them for around four months they had a hole in the sole. But overall they are a pretty good shoes and they look great.

It turns out that these shoes were not actually the ones that I ordered, but they were the ones that I wanted. They are nice shoes. I tired them on, and the suede got scuffed so I am keeping them!

These are fairly nice shoes. My size varies depending on the brand and type of shoes but I ordered a 13M and feel like they are almost half a size too big but the shoes do not slip off my feet. They seem a little wide but they nice. I tried in black but feel the style and cut looks best with silver. I have been looking for flats for a while and these seem to fit the bill. There is not much footbed so comfort is comprised a bit.

This was a good choice for my 10M foot. Right foot is a 10.5, yet both feet are completely comfortable. Walking all day in these is a breeze, no rubbing or sore spots. Lots of space in the toe bed, yet they still look delicate, not clunky. I've always been insecure about my feet, (feel like boats!), yet, now feel dainty like a ballerina. Best ballet flat out of my 10 pair from different companies.

I ordered an 8N. This is a nice basic flat but as with most ballerina flats there isn't a lot of padding in the footbed. It did feel nice and narrow though and I didn't walk out of it so I'm pretty happy. Narrow shoes are hard to find.

I love this shoe- it is super comfortable, especially since I need a wide. Not a lot of support, but it is a flat. The size was way off however, I'm always an 8.5, so I had to return my first pair and order 8's and they are still a little large. I love them though!

Great shoe, very comfortable. I didn't want my toes to show and these did the trick.

I love them! I've been looking for cute fashionable wide black flats. They are wide enough for my orthotics.They would be a little to big if it weren't for my inserts.

I've been hunting for the perfect pair of basic black flats forever. Unfortunately, this won't be the pair. These look fabulous in pictures and when they come out of the box, but don't feel good at all once they're on. I was shocked at how flimsy they felt for a pair of shoes at this price - the sides felt like plastic, and the soles felt thinner than flip-flops! I could also feel the back of the shoe digging into my ankle, although it's possible that that could disappear after being broken in. This shoe also had extreme amounts of toe cleavage. Not a just a little bit - my toes were practically exposed to the joint.

I cannot believe these shoes are being sold for so much. Within the first day of wearing them, both shoes had nasty injuries to the leather in the back and the front. The leather is such bad quality, I have never seen anything like it in this price range. You should not be selling such inferior products. That is very disappointing. I have had similar shoes last for two years, these are ready to be thrown out. This definitely takes the joy out of buying stuff online.

I really like these flats! They look really nice, with a clean, simple design, and they are comfortable. They are very silver, but not too shiny, and the leather is nice and soft, but seems like it will be durable. I bought them in my normal size, 7.5, but they felt a bit loose, so I was afraid they would stretch and not stay on my heels, so I ordered size 7 also to compare, but the 7s were definitely too small and hurt my toes, so I stuck with the 7.5s. After several wears they still fit great and don't fall off of my heels. This is a nice shoe!

Love these shoes! Should buy another pair 'cause I wear these a lot and am afraid I will wear them out.
