I love YS flats. I have at least 6 pairs. I have a wider size 10 foot. The 11 is perfect. I wear them all day in the office. No blisters, no pain. The split sole also allows my flat feet more room to move, which helps with comfort. The travel bag is fantastic for workday and to arrange in luggage.

These are really wonderful shoes. I am always true to size 8 but was worried about it being too tight after over reviews. I ordered the 9 and it fit absolutely perfect!!

I like these shoes. Comfortable and cute. Can be dressed up or down. It's a little annoying that these shoes are not to be worn on rainy days...so be aware of that. Overall, I'm happy enough with my purchase. Will wear them a lot spring-fall.

Absolutely adore these shoes!
Sometimes, the trouble with ballet flats is that we buy them for how they look & how much more comfortable they can be than heels.... until those ballet flats slice our feet up, cutting into our heels and toes, leaving us in agony.
Cue the Yosi Samra Ballet Flats! Classic look, soft style, grip sole and definitely no foot slicing here! In fact, these are so comfortable that when I'm at home walking around in them, I literally forget I have them on - it's like being barefoot & it's wonderful.
Fair warning - order a full size up from your regular size. My first pair of these was my usual size 6 and they were so tight in front that my toes would cramp. I was really bummed about it until I tried on a size 7, which brought the comfort and relief I craved. So, I gave my size 6 version away to a size 5 gal and have been purchasing size 7 in these ever since.
Another benefit is the fold up feature (they fold in half!) and accompanying dust bag. In other words - get these in every color, then stash them in your handbag/carry on/suitcase/glove compartment in your vehicle. The dust bag is incredibly sturdy and closes with a drawstring to prevent things-on-the-bottom-of-your-shoes from going anywhere. Long night of high heel wearing, cobblestone sidewalk walking, club dancing, endless hardwood floor, marble floored ballroom fun? Carry a bag large enough for your heels and swap as needed!
At this point, friends are asking me for these little wonders as gifts and I happily oblige - because everyone deserves this much simultaneous comfort and class. Everyone!

Great color for fall and great fit! Followed the recommendation to size up if a half size normally and worked great!

New favorite flats! I bought these in the black. The leather is super soft and comfortable and the fit is true to size. These are able to fold up which makes them great for traveling, without taking up too much room in my bag. I plan on purchasing these in the nude as well.

I love these shoes, but I definitely recommend sizing up. I usually wear a 6 in flats and my toe hits the end and starts to feel numb after a while. I ordered a second pair in size 7 and they are perfect. I was even able to add an insole because they're very thin soled, it's like walking bare footed.

So cute and comfortable! After reading reviews and product recommendations, I went up one size. I usually wear 7 or 7.5 and bought these flats in size 8. Will absolutely purchase again in additional colors.

I love these shoes. Tieks did not fit me well, the Lucky Brand ballet flat dug into my heel, and my Ballasox just are not sturdy enough for real day to day wear. That said, I am returning these (size 9). Reading the reviews convinced me to go up a size in the skin tone Yosi (I wear a size 8), but I should not have. These seem to be very true to size for me.

I love these shoes, this is my fifth pair from this company! I walk A LOT at work, climbing stairs, and sometimes I even have to run! These are perfect for my business casual attire. I do suggest that you order an entire size larger than your usual shoe size! Great shoe! :)

When I first got these, they hurt my toes because these shoes want to be all folded up and you are making them stretch out to be flat, so it makes sense. I was worried that I would not like them. Well, I love them! These are high quality and once you get them all molded to your feet they are so comfortable. When I was looking for flats, I wanted to find some that had thick enough soles so I did not feel all the texture of the ground, but were inconspicuous and subtle on my feet. These work perfectly for that! I plan to buy more pairs. I have had mine for two months and wear them a few times a week to work, I walk a lot downtown and what not during my lunch break and these have held up so well. I expect they will last a long time. For sizing, I wear a 6½ in most things. I always go to a 6 when shoes do not come in half sizes and that is what I purchased in these. I believe if I would have ordered a 7 I would not have had that initial uncomfortableness, but they may have stretched to be too large. Anyway, order these and tough it out the first few wears. I did not get any blisters, just slight pain in my toes. I was choosing between these and more expensive turquoise bottom flats and I am glad that I saved the money and got these.

My fifth pair! I wear these everywhere and even got a hand full of friends hooked. Our go to, everyday, travel, do everything shoes! The only thing we all complain about is that they make your feet sweat but a friend discovered the "low cut ped sock liners" that hide perfectly underneath and keep our feet dry and cool! They fold well and look with a cute little cloth travel bag! I wear 7.5 but always have to go up to an 8 being whole sizes offered only!

It took four orders and three different styles, but now I'm set and I love these shoes! I usually wear a 7.5. As low as 6 in some brands, but never more than 8. So, I ordered a light neutral color in 8. A little tight in the toe and too close to my own skin tone. So I ordered a different pattern - embossed reptile patchwork print - in 8. Definitely too small. Next up was a 9 in the whiskey soft leather style. But a 7 arrived! Quick exchange for the right size. Of course all of these returns were free and easy. The 9 - nine! - fits comfortably and looks great. I can wear these with just about anything.

Love these flats. I ordered them in black. They are comfortable on my feet. I wear a size 6 but I like to purchase my flats in 6.5 for breaking in room. I ordered a 7 and they are perfect. These Yosi Samra flats run a little small, I say that because these fit perfect on my feet. I plan to order more in other colors.

These flats are beautiful! First class. I purchased them in black, size 10. Like the rest of the reviews, they are super supple and do form to the toes. Not too bad in black, but I could see where this would be not so good in nude. They run small also. I just ordered a size 11 to see if I prefer that over the 10 - definitely order a size up. Hopefully the 11 works. The bottom has suede between the foot and heel beds, and weather-wise this would not be good. I am not sure how they will wear - just around the house the suede looked to get worn. But they are otherwise what I was looking for and are beautiful! I hope the different size works better for me!

Cute & comfy! These are the perfect ballet flats, stylish and comfortable. Order a size up, they run a bit small. I normally wear a size 9 (Eur 39), but for this shoe, I wear a 40.

These are very comfortable and practical because of the color. They are also very easy to carry in your bag as a second pair, to any events or work, if you are wearing high heels and you need a pair of flats to help you feel more comfortable. I just put these on and feel as if wearing slippers at home.

These are great flats! I walked all over in these on vacation and never had a problem. The top does slightly rub on your toes but I have yet to get a blister as a result. Definitely order next size up if you are 1/2 size - they fit snugly but hopefully will stretch slightly.

Lovely. I tried a much more expensive brand (Tieks) and these actually fit better and look better (but no cool aqua blue soles on these!).

I love the shoe, however the size 8 was too small and the 9 was too big. I wish they had half sizes!
