Customer Reviews Frye Carson Ballet

They were too short for me and because they were fairly wide and have such little material over the toes, I did not try the next half size up because I was afraid they would not stay on my foot.

These were cute little ballet flats. Unfortunately they were so snug and my toes were all the way to the end—had to go back.

I wear a 7.5 and even the 8 felt right. Beautiful distressed leather but it feels the shoe felt hard so it will require some Break in time. The sole was firm and great for support.

Such a great looking shoe. I ordered the gorgeous dark sage color. They were really small though! I have narrow, low-volume feet, but I could barely get my foot into the shoe. Unfortunately, the larger sizes have sold out, so none for me.

These shoes are very cute, and maintain a nice profile even after broken-in. They were painfully narrow at first, but after wearing a couple times they molded nicely to my feet. The soles are super slick, so roughing them up a bit by shuffling on concrete is helpful to keep from slipping. The only problem I have is that after wearing them for about 6 months (a couple times a week), the upper is pulling away from the sole around the sides and toebox. The soles are also not durable AT ALL and have worn down to the point that the stitching of the sole is starting to wear away. I work in an office, so I'm not putting tons of miles on them, or using them for extreme activity. I'm pretty sad that they aren't more durable, because if they were I would have a pair in every color!!!

I got these in the "cream antique" and they are very pretty, love how they look, but the leather is stiff and not soft at all. Maybe they get soft over time but not worth putting my feet through that. I returned them :(

Like other reviewers say, this shoe is definitely narrow. The Medium is too narrow for me. They are going back.

Cute ballet, but for the price could use more cushion for comfort. Also the bottom of the soles are very slick. Highly recommend adding grips. I’m a 7.5 and size felt true to size.

Cute shoes but not at all comfortable. For the price, I would definitely not get them again.

Well-made shoe but it runs very narrow. The toe box is unbearably tight and the upper is cut way too low. If you have even a moderate bunion (which I do), the shoe will cut across it.

I have been buying the same Frye flat for about 8 years now, so this is probably my 5th pair, and these are not like the other ones I had. The leather is not soft, especially inside and they are taking a long time to break in. I kept them, but so far I'm thinking that this might be my last pair of Frye shoes.

I ordered the denim.... nothing like my other Carson flats. Fit completely off. ??

This was different sized then the other color I bought at same time. Surprised by size variance.

I feel like this shoe runs small. The inside of the shoe is REALLY low, exposing my foot arch. No support. So disappointed in this shoe.

The vamp on these is way to short for me. Weird toe cleavage and looked like the shoes weren't on all the way.

I am usually a 9/9.5. I ordered a 9.5 and my big toe is pushing out the end. I was about to order the 10, but after doing more research have found too many negative reviews. Plus, the soles are SO smooth and SO slippery! I almost fell over when I tried them on. Back to the drawing board...

I ordered both an 8 1/2 and a 9. The 9 was same length and narrower than the 8 1/2?? Too bad because they are really cute. I am returning both.

I always were a 7 but would need an 8 in this shoe. Also size is not indicated on shoe.....only on box.

My true size is 7.5M. I tried that and exchanged it for the 8M. Neither of them a good fit. Not enough support. 7.5 too snug and 8 too long and awkward. Very attractive, but had to send back.

These shoes are super cute, but I think they're really uncomfortable. The toes pinch and there's no arch support really. They're pretty, but I hate wearing them.
