Slipped right on, very cute shoe. No stepping on them allowed, they are blue suede.

I have had many French Sole, Sloop style in the past. The pair I just received were fine in width but short in length by at least a half size.

Terrible shoe! Tan a size too small. Leather was cheap…flimsy design. Couldn’t even get my foot in…I even read the reviews to be aware that it would take some stretching to fit properly. Not worth the $125 price tag as it felt like a $19.99 Payless shoe. Returned the next day.

I ordered these after reading the reviews, but I just tried to put them on and can’t even get my foot into them. They are so tight there is no way I would be able to wear them long enough to have them stretch. Also, very cheap looking, leather is dull and shoe feels very frail.

Too big. Shoe gaps on the sides. Not very cushiony. But they are so cute!

It is such a lovely show, but far too tight for me, even though I ordered a 10 and normally wear a 9 1/2. I think the sizes should be adjusted to fit more realistically.

I purchased the same shoe in three different colors/material over the last couple of years. I cannot get this shoe on my foot and it is the same size I previously purchased. And the quality of the leather is inferior to the prior purchases. I would give no stars if possible.

I wear a size 12 Medium. I couldn't really even get this shoe on. It felt a full size smaller to me. Very tight. So sad because it is a simple and well made leather flat.

It felt like you were wearing slippers instead of shoes. Wouldn’t be comfortable walking on concrete, etc.

DON'T LISTEN TO THE REVIEWS SAYING THEY ARE SUPPOSED START OUT TOO SMALL AND STRETCH. Get a half or full size up from what you normally get! They don't stretch a whole lot. It's true that these are leather dance shoes and you usually want those to start a little small so they stretch out to the shape of your foot. Not in this case! They switched the type of leather and construction recently, and if you get these now, they do not stretch a whole lot. I listened to the reviews suggesting I wear them for a few days to see them stretch to my foot, and yeah... that never happened. They're a full size too small. I walk a LOT and they stretched a little bit, but not nearly enough. The new type of leather isn't as supple as before and they just don't break in and mold to your foot the way this type of shoe normally does. Otherwise they're well constructed. Just don't pay attention to those reviews telling you to break them in! An expensive mistake for me.

These are beautiful shoes especially if you are looking for something slightly different from a regular black flat. The issue for me is that it was just too narrow. If you have slightly wider feet this may not be the best fit. Otherwise, narrow feet people - this is a great flattering shoe and worth the money.

Beautiful shoe, way to narrow. In spite of all the warnings that it will stretch, I will return them.

There is no way these shoes are a size 13. I am a true 12.5, so size 13 shoes are always a bit big. These were pinching my toes! Back they go.

Feels really flimsy with a small toe box. Perhaps someone with a smaller toe box would like these for casual wear, but I expected something more substantial and comfortable for the price. These are going back.

Gorgeous shoe. I needed a wider option. The medium was too narrow. I can usually wear medium or normal, but some shoes require wide.

This shoe is totally ridiculous! Maybe cut it up and make a purse out of the leather! Extremely short - 4 sizes off and totally flat sole with no protection. So sad. So very sad.

It is hard to write a review without explaining the fit from the start. When I ordered my usual size (9) and tried to put them on, I could not even get my foot in. Returned for a size 9 1/2 and even that size was tight at first try on but now they are conforming for a better fit. I now understand why they are compared to ballet slippers.
