Love..love..love these shoes. Fits just a little small so I went up half a size, they look cute on. Wear with jeans or as I did recently with dress pants.

Finally a comfortable flat! I love my flip flops and wanted flats that were as comfortable. Ordered a half size up from my usual 8 and they were perfect.

I was hoping these would be as great as the photos and other reviews. I love them. I'm in between an 8 and 8 1/2, so I got the 8 1/2 because I don't believe in breaking shoes in the hard way. They fit comfortably, and true to size. Rub in a few places, but not enough to blister. I will probably take them to a shoe shop to have some sole protectors added. Would give them more stars for comfort, but they're not a true comfort shoe. I may add a this arch insole if it fits okay. Otherwise thrilled with the style and quality. I love ballet flats that are a little low cut on the sides, I think it's more flattering and sexier.

Perfect ballet flat! Purchased these in the Fawn color and they are the best nude shade to pair with jeans and any top in my wardrobe. Was hesitant on the price but decided to try them knowing I could return them...but they have been on my feet non stop for the past week. I can wear these to work and they will be weather suitable for many months to come. Love these and already looking at what color I want to "collect" next! Visited the SOHO Frye store last month and Frye is a step above every leather shoe company in my book. Does not get any better than Frye!

These shoes are classic, comfortable, and beautiful. I bought the plum and charcoal, both colors are wonderful. I did go down half a size, which just barely fits. They have loosened a bit with wear. My normal size slipped off the back of my heel.

This is my first pair of Fryes and must be one of the most comfortable shoes I ever wore. They feel like slippers and require no breaking in. I did have to go half a size up than my regular size. I haven't walked for extended periods of time in them yet, but I usually get blisters almost right away with other new shoes and these have been perfect so far. I have them in silver mutli metallic and they are very stylish and good quality.

This shoe is adorable, the vamp is low enough to be fashionable, but not so low that there is toe cleavage. The only thing I dislike is the lack of arch support, but that is easily remedied with an insert.

I love this shoe. Bought the one in gray, runs a tiny bit on the big side, but still wearable.

Simply the best flat I've every worn: soft leather (mine are a distressed pea green), durable heel, comfortable, easy to wear.

Based on reviews by others, I ordered this shoe in both a size 6 1/2 and 7. 7 is my normal shoe size and it fit perfectly. Had to return the 6 1/2. So I say this fits true to size, though I'm told I have a narrow foot. I love the shoe, very comfortable right out of the box. The white cracked leather is somewhat "funky", but fun. Because of the overall "cracked" appearance, it's not a "white white" shoe...comes across as a golden/tan white. I like them!

I absolutely love them! They are so comfortable, the leather stretches perfectly to fit your feet and the bottom is padded so they are amazing from the first time you wear them!

I was skeptical that a ballet flat could be comfortable and this (seemingly) unsubstantial in construction, but these are just exactly that. Surprisingly comfortable. So pretty. I wear these all the time, including to work (I'm a photographer so I'm on my feet all the time) and out. Might need a few more pairs.

These are without a doubt the MOST comfortable ballerinas that I have ever worn. I have a huge bunion on my right foot, and these shoes accommodate that beautifully. I just purchased another pair in black. The sole of the shoe shows typical Frye craftsmanship. Yeah, they are expensive, but for ballerinas that I can wear for hours straight out of the box with no pain at all; they are totally worth it!

Great flat. I first ordered a 5.5 (taking the advice the shoe runs big and stretches) but found it way too small. I dealt with it but the stitching on the underside of the shoe eventually came undone (possibly because it had stretched too much) after only a few months. Luckily, and as they should, these expensive shoes have a 2-year Frye warranty and I was able to get a proper size 6 as a replacement. I'm a little worried about the stitching again, but they seem to be really well made. Overall comfy shoes, love the leather sole.

Great leather flat! I received these yesterday and wore them all day today. Typically, I need to break in new shoes but these were comfy right off the bat. The foot bed isn't super padded, but just enough to keep my heels from aching (I'm a heavy heel walker). I'm a 7 1/2 typically and after reading the reviews from other buyers, I went with a 7 and they fit perfectly. Also, the Cloud leather color is awesome. It's the perfect off-white color. The cut and construction of the leather is what I would expect from a Frye shoe. Very happy they make more than just boots!

These shoes are gorgeous and comfortable straight out the box, the first time I wore them I armed myself with a box of. Band aid which I totally didn't need, it was that comfortable, the only problem for me was it didn't have enough arch support!

Loved the look and feel of the white cracked leather. Ordered 1/2 size smaller since some said it ran big, but it was too short. Ordered my regular size 8, but found it to be too short as well.

The white cracked leather is awesome. It definitely wears super fast, but in a good distressed way. Fryes in general run big, so order at least a half size down. I'm normally an 8.5/9. I always order an 8 in Fryes. They were perfectly broken in by about the 5th time I wore them. Fryes are great and last forever! Worth the money!

Clean and elegant show. Got it in white. It is true to size but for narrow feet

I should have ordered the 6 1/2 (I am usually a 7 or 7 1/2). They are still so cute and comfortable.
