These are very comfortable and stylish in a minimalist, classic way. If you are used to wearing flats or barefoot style shoes, these are very comfy. They do run a full size small. I usually wear a 39 in European sizes, but I wear a 40 in this style. Do not let that deter you. The toe box was originally too snug, but he leather is very soft and loosened up within a day or 2. I wish Zappos sold them in other colors or textures, because I would definitely buy more!

I heeded the advice to buy a size larger and I am glad I did. At first I was worried they might be too big, but as I walked in them, they molded nicely to my feet. The first time I wore them, I got a small blister on the back of one foot. After that, the leather was like butter and it's now a second skin. I only wish they made this flat in more colors as I already have black and nude in other flats and cannot justify spending $100 on duplicate colors. Suede material is great on the feet. Simple, basic, and great with pants or a dress/skirt. Hands down, the best pair of flats I own.

Amazing style that fits comfortably, the heel is padded and overall is a great shoe. There is a part of the shoe that helps it stay on your foot...which I love. They are stylish flats that are great to wear anytime.

Excellent, classy ballet flat. I was looking for a plain, quality-made flat that can stand up to my active nature but still look sleek and fashioable for work (and is made well enough to take in for repair work rather than disposing). These shoes are it! So comfortable and beautiful, makes me feel and walk like a dancer. I am a solid size 9 and size up (US 10) fit me perfectly.

These are amazing! I ordered my true shoe size and they were a bit tight at first, but since they're leather I had a feeling they'd stretch and break in. A larger size would have been too big after they broke in. And yes, these did require a bit of break in, but after that period they are amazing - they even fit my wide feet, which is always hard to do!

The leather is top notch and the shoe is very comfortable. The leather in the toe box is a little stiff, but I think it will break in with time. I usually wear a 9.5 and I ordered a 40.5, the fit is just a very little bit snug.

Beautiful ballet flat! Very soft and comfy inside. Unfortunately, the sizing is off. I am a solid size 9.5 (corresponding to 39.5 on Zappos), but when I received the shoes and tried them on, they were definitely a full size too small. Interestingly, on the Bloch website, size 9.5 corresponds with 40.5. So, I am returning these beautiful shoes, but ordering them again in a size up.

This shoe runs small. I ordered an 8 1/2 had to return for a 9 which is perfect! Very comfortable ballet shoe, I will buy more. I cannot say enough good about Zappos they are great company to do business with. Lightening fast shipping is magical!! love you , love you, Zappos

This brand (or just this shoe?) runs extremely small. I'm typically a 9.5 (which I first ordered), then just tried the 10.5, which was still too small. Now I'm going to order an 11 and 11.5. Never in my life have I even tried on anything larger than 10; most 10's are too big. I want this color grey, which is why I keep trying.

I adore these flats! They are well worth the money. They did feel tight immediately slipping them on, but they loosened and formed to my foot. I haven't tried this yet, but wearing thick socks and hitting the shoes with the blow dryer until hot to the touch and wearing them until cool would likely solve any tightness issues if the length and width are okay. I want every color!

This looks pretty sick! I have regular Skullcrushers but my little terror of a brother ripped the connection apart that keeps the phones and the wire connected. The Skullcrushers were great, but since I plan on DJing for a career, I might as well put the money into these great headphones. My friend has a pair and he says that they are awesome. Plus, I love the Miami Heat! Thanks for the inside look. It really helped my decision.
