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 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.

Overall, it is okay, but a little overpriced for what you get. Shoe runs small, so buyers beware.

I bought these about a month ago and think that they look great! However, they leave blisters and are a little thin in the sole.

They look good on yet I would have to say that they run small. I am a size 10 in frye and sometimes I need a 10.5 , but dye does not make Thai size. Usually it works out. I hope these do... I wore them all day to work once to stretch them out...big mistake. My foot was sore for the next couple of days. I hope they stretch out...but so far, NOPE. They were expensive so I will wear them on days I have very little walking to do or will mostly be sitting.

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.

Ordered grey pair. The color showing is a light grey, in reality dark grey with a hint of purple and brown. I wish the color would match the picture. Will return.

I bought these shoes and I'm disappointed. They tend to run small and are uncomfortable. I will be returning these.

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.

I bought this shoes two weeks ago and even though they are well made and great quality I will return them because they run too small, I am a 7.5m and I think I will need an 8.5 becuase they are very small on me.

I ordered a half size up, as I have my other Frye purchases and it ran quite small. Also, the bottoms were very slippery when trying them on in the house. I am sure they would scuff up nicely with wear, but they felt slippery.

Not comfortable at all. Afraid they'd cause blister because they're uncomfortable tight.

I have several pairs of the Carson Ballet flats in different colors all of them fairly old. These are the same design but the shoe is narrower and the toe box is smaller making these shoes tight in my regular 7.5 size

I ordered a pair of Cognac. The box labels Cognac, but the color of the shoes is dark brown, nothing close to what the picture shows. The shoes are soft and quite comfortable even though the toe box is very shallow. The shoes do not have that sturdy and well made look. Very disappointed.
