My red suede Sloops just arrived and I think they are the cutest shoes that I have ever owned! In fact, I have a crush on them. This might be the beginning of a new romance. I wear a size 7 so I ordered a 7½ and they fit perfectly. I love them. I love Zappos.

This is the cutest little flat shoe ever! I received the leopard print today and want this shoe in every color! I am between a 6.5 and 7. I ordered the 6.5 and it is pretty snug, but I think the shoe will stretch and don't want it to look sloppy, so I'll keep these and work on them a bit. You may want to consider ordering a half size up. These shoes defy cuteness...flattering, well made - love them!

I was so excited when I placed my order for the French Sole Sloop flats. I love the look and the simplicity of them. With that said, I was very disappointed when not even a month after received them the insole became loose and eventually came out of the shoe. I have had to use inserts to replace the soles ever since. For the price and a company called French Sole, I didn't think that I would be having a problem with the sole of the shoe.

Overall these shoes are very cute. Soft flexible fabric, nice shape. However, these shoes were way too short and too narrow for my feet. I usually wear a size 7 and ordered a size 7 1/2. I thought about ordering a size 8 but I think they would still be too narrow. So I'm returning them.

I love the French Sole Sloop. One size larger. Always. They are what they are, so if you want or need support' look elsewhere. If you want an elegant little flat that looks expensive, then this is your shoe.

Cute shoe but not great value for money, a bit floppy with a thin sole so more not for walking long distances. I bought half a size up and they fit well.

I searched all over for a simple black suede flat, this style is perfect! I usually take a 9 or 9 1/2 but this ran small. I'd love to order it in a fun color as well.

I am a true 7 B. The French Soles Co. advised a 1/2 size bigger. I bought a size 8 and put in a gel insole with arch support. That fits perfectly. I can wear them all day in comfort. They are stylish beautiful shoes. Just order one size up and add your own internal support. I will be ordering many more. Very simple and sophisticated.

Crinkly finish was not what I wanted. Fit was smaller than the 11 I ordered. All that said, it felt comfortable, and hip.

My first pair wore so well, that the inside was an embarrassment. I now wear them when I work in the garden. These shoes are stylish, fit like a glove, wear like iron, and make a woman feel cute! Buy a pair. You'll love them!

This is a very cute shoe. It has surprisingly soft padding. It ran small. I will exchange for larger size.

I bought this shoe last April. I take very good care of my shoes, and this shoe started falling apart after 5 wears. For the amount of money, the quality is lacking. Cute style, but you can find a better shoe for less.

This was my first pair of FS. Probably won't be my last either. This leather feels like butda! The construction is A1, top notch. The width was spot on. These shoes do fit loosely around the toes. I'm pretty sure you want this for comfort. I wear a 7 to a 7.5, and the 8 was perfect for me. I tried the 7.5, but I had to exchange for the 8. Of course Zappos was wicked awesome about the exchange- as always. I'm super happy I got them.

I ordered the Bronze Metallic Suede a year ago. What seemed to fit me at the time has stretched so much that they are floppy, and I can't wear them. Very sad because I like the color and style.

Great flat for travel and running around town. Runs fairly true to size, and there was still a bit of room to add an insole if you don't like overly flat shoes!

This is the most comfortable flat I've ever found! It doesn't rub in any weird places, and I can walk forever in these; however, I will switch off putting a insert in the bottom if I'm walking long distances. Normally I wear a 7.5 and purchased an 8.5 M in black suede.

I adore these flats! They are very cute and very comfortable. I ordered a half size up based on some other reviews but really didn't need to. But with some cushioned insoles added in, they fit fine. I had a slight bit of rubbing on my heel the first time I wore them, but after that they've been very comfortable. I will mention that red suede is not the easiest thing to keep clean!

Based on other reviews, I had really high expectations for these shoes. I have been searching high and low for a simple, easy black flat. Unfortunately, these weren't it for me. First, I wear a 10.5 and ordered an 11. They were still a little short (my toes dug), and I found them to be tight across the top of my foot. I do not have wide feet. I also was disappointed in the way that they appeared over the top of my foot and they resembled slippers because the material across the toes was wrinkled and did not lie flat. Perhaps the suede material would not do this (I ordered the black Tejus)?

I love my new flats! I waited 2 months before Zappos had them in stock, because I felt they were worth the wait! They totally were! I love how soft and comfortable the shoe feels on my foot. I get compliments on them all the time at work. I am typically a size 7.5 and I ended up getting a size 8 as was suggested by other customers. Take heed to this advice, the 8 fit like a glove. I love my shoes!

Good flat, nice shape and very comfortable. I like that these shoes completely cover my toes, unlike most other flats.

I like the way they look, work great with jeans, skirts and some work pants. There is very little cushion though. They will work great when I am wearing boots into work and needs something to slip into once I get there that is dressier.

These are very comfortable shoes. I always buy them a half size larger as they fit small.

I have a wide foot, although not wide enough for wide-width shoes, and these fit fine in the width. I can wear an 8.5 or 9, so I ordered a 9, and it fit good. Overall these are comfortable, and the look is ok at best. The problem is that they cover so much of the toe that it looks weird. I can't see paying this much for a basic ballet if it doesn't look great, so I'll be returning them.

They were really comfortable on my feet. I hate to wear shoes, but these- like another reviewer said- conformed to the shape of my toes.
I recommend them to anyone who finds shoes uncomfortable. And I got lots of compliments on the looks.
