I loved these shoes; they were super cute and comfortable, but they fell apart in less than 3 months.

Very cute shoe. Watermelon is a great, neutral shade of pink. But, the shoes arrived already well-worn and scuffed. Zappos, if you're selling used shoes now, you such label and price them accordingly.

Overall, the shoe is comfortable and has more cushion than most flats, but I should have returned them. I wear a 10 and I always wear a 10. These feel like an 11. They are too big! Too wide too.

This seemed like a cute & comfy flat. However, one of the shoes had some really hard, pokey stitching right at the heel. The dark brown dye rubbed off on my big toes during the short time I had them on to try them out. It's too bad, the leather seemed nice and the shoe would have worked perfectly. I would look for other Frye shoes that have the neutral leather interior.

These shoes are too expensive to have them totally lose their shape in 3 months. I actually got two pair, in brown and black. Within two weeks the heel fell of the black pair.

I have been buying the same carson ballet shoe every year for the last 7 years, and I used to love them, even for the price. I don't know what happened, but the quality is down. The leather is stiff making the shoe uncomfortable and squeaky when I walk. I'm thinking about trying to buy another pair to see if this was just a defect on the one pair that I got...

Super cute, but huge design flaw: the leather wraps and is glued and stitched to a point so that it pokes in the soft spot below your inner ankle. Had to return. No excuse for that in a shoe this price! Also zero arch support, which surprised me in a Frye shoe.

I wear 6.5-7 depending on shoe. I got the 7 and it fits perfect. Extremely comfortable. Wore out of box and felt like I had slippers on. Bought a second pair.

Loved this shoe for a long time. Unfortunately, the sole cracked all the way through and after 2 years the salt and snow wore down the lower fabric. I did wear them every single day for extended periods of time so this wasn't much of a surprise. Aside from this, the shoe fit perfect and the quality was wonderful. The support was minimal, but that didn't bother me.

These ballet flats are adorable. I like that they make my size 9 feet look smaller! I just received them, and they are rubbing a bit at the top of my pinky toes, but I'm sure that a few days of wear with cure that issue. I love Frye boots and I think I'm going to be a lover of Frye flats, too.

I've purchased this shoe from Frye in 5 different colors over the past few years. I love the fact that it has a leather sole, a rarity these days, which allows me to dance/spin on a dance floor. The ballet slipper style, with the rounded toe, is very comfortable. The leather quality is excellent.

These are really cute flats, a bit pricey, but very stylish. I have them in 3 colors and if they were not so expensive, I probably would have gotten them in more colors because I live in flats outside of the house for most everything. I have a rather narrow foot, but these fit well.

I never write reviews, but these shoes are worth it! True to size, cute, versatile, and zero break-in time. These shoes fit like they were made for my feet. Worth the price!

I own these in blk , red, yellow and a coral suede. The best flat hands down. The.Frye quality is amazing. All of them are worn and I have had them for years. I do get a protective sole put on the bottom. I get compliments all the time on them. They are simple , classic and will always look great. They have a cushioned footbed too. I will say the suede ones need a lil more work as far as being comfortable but I will have these forever in my wardrobe .
