This is the third pair of this exact shoes that I've bought, plus I have them in Bone! The most comfortable shoe. A classic look. I wear them to work every day! I usually wear an 8 or 7.5, definitely the 7.5 in this shoe. My foot is a bit on the wide side but these are perfect. If you are looking for arch support, these are not for you , but if you want to feel like you are wearing comfy slippers all day long, these are your shoes!

I am one of those people that tends to refuse to pay over a certain amount for everyday shows. I cringed as I saw the price on these flats and hit Add to Cart. These shoes are worth every bit of the price tag. They are the most comfortable ballet style flats I have owned. I work a job where I am 8+ hours on my feet or walking around all day.
I got a 7 1/2 when I normally wear an 8. I am glad I sized down. I may have been able to go down to a 7 but I think it wouldn't have been just a tiny bit too small going down a full size. French Sole now has a loyal customer!

Love these shoes! Very stylish and super comfortable. The stitching across the sides looks very elegant. A bit pricey but worth it. They ran a little small. I am always an 8 and needed to exchange for an 8.5.

These shoes are very classy, very well made, and can be worn with dresses or pants. However, they do run large. I am normally a 6 1/2 but ordered a half size down after reading other reviews. Even then, the shoes are a little bit large, but that was remedied by putting a little foot pad in the shoe, where the ball of the foot is. I think if I had ordered a full size down, the shoe would have been too short.

Nice shoe, very comfy. Glad I listened to the other reviewers and purchased the shoe 1/2 size smaller as they really run big. I always wear an 8 but ordered 7 1/2 based on the reviews and the shoes are still a tiny bit loose by would have been huge if I ordered normally. They seem to be well made, I think they will last.

Super comfy! A great pair of flats. These shoes hug your feet. No blisters. No time needed to break them in. They are comfy right out of the box. They do run a bit big though. Based on other Zappos reviews I got a half size smaller than I typically wear and they fit perfectly.

I found these shoes to be true to size. Based on reviews, I ordered a half-size smaller than what I normally wear. Sure enough, they were a half-size too small.
I'm giving them a 5 star rating because they do seem to be comfortable (if they are the right size) and good quality.

I love them! They are so comfortable and cute. I am trying to convert to a nearly all flats shoe wardrobe, which is a big fashion transition. However, these shoes are beautiful enough that they make the loss of my high heels more okay.

I absolutely love these shoes! Because they are made on ballet shoe form they truly do fit to the wearer over time so it feels like a pair of slippers. Just give it a couple of weeks to feel like that. I ordered this same size (same size as I did two years ago) and it felt tight near join to sole - returned it and ordered half a size up. Too big. Returned that and figured, if these are hand made, let me try my size 7 again. I reordered and this pair was like my original. Not tight (beyond new shoe tight) and now worn it beautifully like my first pair. I normally order wide shoes but these really do form around the foot - even with my high instep.

Yes, everyone, they do run half a size large. But, they are really nice looking and comfortable out of the box. They are great travel shoes - I love them; they are worth the money.

Love the style and look. I've been wearing them for about a month and they make it through full days of walking in great comfort -- from day one. I wear a 7 or 7-1/2 and the 7 is perfect. Will definitely try more French Sole shoes.

I bought these shoes in 2010 and I still wear them. They have worn extremely well and are the only pair of flat shoes that I have felt to be comfortable. So comfortable, in fact that I am hoping to find a pair in black to take to Spain.

This is my second pair of the same shoes. I wore out the first pair! I love these shoes. Both times I have ordered a half size smaller and they have been fine. I highly recommend these. They are stylish and comfortable.

Love the shoe. I normally wear a size 10, but based on reviews, I ordered a 9.5. It still seemed a little long, so I ordered a 9 and am returning the 9.5.

"The Elusive 11.5 and 10.5" This shoe runs a half-size too big, so if you are on the hunt for the elusive 11.5, you can get it by ordering the 11. This is a nice combination of ballet flat with traction on the bottom so you won't slip. The leather is pliable and doesn't rub. I only wish it had arch support. Overall, love it.

I tried four pairs of shoes of similar style. This pair was the most expensive, but was a keeper because they were comfortable. There was a concern that a more casual shoe would have been better for the walking required at the football game. I wore them to the game and the hike to the parked car. They still look new.

I bought this shoe August 2010. I am still wearing it in 2014. I don't own many flats as I wear more heels and wedges. These are my go-to flats. They fit well, they are buttery soft, they are so comfortable. They also have a wide and long enough toe box that there's not toe cleavage. If you're looking for arch support, however, look elsewhere or add an insert. This part doesn't bother me, but I can see that it might for others.

These are the most comfortable ballet flats ever ever owned. The offer a little bit of support and structure but are still soft and comfortable. I will buy them in every color when my size becomes available!

These shoes are comfortable right out of the box. I have a wide foot and medium is perfect for me, but maybe not for someone with very narrow feet. I recommend ordering one-half size down. They are soft and conform well to the foot without losing shape. Besides being comfortable, they are sleek and stylish and are the best all around "Chanel-style" shoe I've tried. Would love them even more if the sole were slightly thicker and the heel a tiny bit higher.

I read the reviews that this shoe ran large. I normally wear a size 11 and since most shoes don't have a 10.5, I ordered a 10 and I could not even get my toes in the shoe. Very pretty, but for me I should have ordered my normal size.

Loved this shoe. Instantly comfortable and looks very cute with spring dresses. I have had a hard time finding a comfortable yet dressy flat and this fit the bill!
