I bought these shoes 6+ months ago and can't say enough great things about them. While they are pricey they are super cute, I was able to wear them traveling immediately, extremely comfortable and they are wearing well.

Super comfortable shoe with excellent footbed support. However, the sides of the shoe bump up against the bottom of my ankles and rub. Sadly have to return them.

The shoes I received are stamped 8; however they are much larger than that.
Please check the ones you send to ensure they are actually size 8.

I bought these for my 95-year-old grandmother. I got them with 2 other models to see which she liked best. Although these were by far the most expensive, she chose these. They go with everything and most importantly, give her the comfort and stability she needs.

Great shoe - exchanged for the smaller size.
I wore out my other Ara Bella shoes so needed to replace them.

REALLY cute. A little long and wide, but I got some heel inserts because I thought the next size smaller would be too small. Also, with thin socks they fit snugly enough.

Thank you, Zappos, for sending the Ara Bella in time for an out of town function. I love the fit and they were comfortable immediately and I wore them the entire day. I will be looking at Ara again!

I've had 3 foot operations so I need comfortable shoes. These fit the bill! For a ballet style shoe, these were the best, and I've tried many.

I normally wear a 9 1/2 or 10 in flats. I ordered the 7 1/2 and they are perfect! They are a little big but I always put a breathable innersole or orthotic in my shoes so they are just right for me. They are so classy and pretty on my HUGE feet that I feel like a princess! My feet look narrow and smaller. I haven't worn them yet, but I expect them to be very comfortable.

I love these stylish and comfortable shoes. My shoe size is usually 8.5 but sometimes 9 and I needed the 9. Would definitely recommend!

These are very comfortable and stylish. They are a bit pricey but when you put them on, it i worth the price. When your feet feel good all day and evening it is worth a bit more. If you need low/flat shoes that are on the dressier side of styling, this is a great choice.

An outstanding shoe for its price. Generous cut across the toe. Good looking and very comfortable. I traveled in Europe in these shoes on rainy days when my comfy sandals were inappropriate. I have them in suede as well. I would buy them again. And on top of all this, my 20 year old granddaughter thought that they were Chanels! I have authentic Chanel ballerinas in brown and black...they are not as comfortable as this shoe!

Great shoe. Love this shoe, very comfortable, very stylish. Hard to find a ballet flat with good arch support. This has it.

Very comfortable, wore around the mall for several hours the first time out, and no problems. This is coming from someone who has never been able to wear ballet-style flats.

I love these shoes! Zappos sent them so fast, and I'm really happy with them. My feet are somewhat wide, and these shoes fit well.

I just discovered this brand and these shoes are the most comfortable, good looking shoes I have worn in a long time. They have a discrete Cushioned sole and could pass for a dressy shoe. I have bought them in several colors, I wish there were more colors. Thank you ARA!

I have been looking for a pair of shoes for over 3 months. I wanted a pair of flats that could be worn for all occasions. Although, they have rubber soles which makes for less attractiveness for the dressier events. These were finally the ones. I wore them for a period of time while at a convention. These are shoes I have been waiting for. Good fit sides are close and don't gap like some others.

With a generic insert, this shoe is very comfortable for me. And, it's cute, cute! I have problems with the ball of my feet and have trouble finding a shoe that I can wear. It is a totally flat shoe. Maybe that's why it doesn't hurt my feet, not sure. I love buying shoes at Zappos and if a pair doesn't fit right or I don't like them on as well as on line, I go to my orders, choose to return, print my return label, tape the label on the box and just drop it off to be returned. They notify me when they receive the item back and give me my credit. Thank you Zappos.

I have one foot that is "acting up". Probably bunion problems fast approaching. These shoes fit perfectly, right out of the box, late in the day. I'm considering another pair.

These are great shoes. I even wore them going up 765 steps of the Ulm Cathedral in Germany. Perfectly comfortable.

These shoes were comfortable from the minute I put them on. They are very flattering to my large feet and go with anything. I absolutely love them and I'm going to get another pair in another color.

This is a very good looking shoe; comes up a little higher around the foot than most flats, but that's part of its charm, and I intended to wear them with pants anyway. They are also very comfortable. I got them for every day but I think they'd go with a dressy outfit as well.

My all-time favorite pair of work flats. These are the best! It's a rare combination to have flats with adequate support. These are cushy, comfortable, have good arch support and are very sturdy and durable. I wore these right out of the box and have never experienced any blisters. I receive lots of compliments on these shoes.
