Lovely leather, but so small. Ordered a 9 and usually wear an 8 1/2. Really ran VERY small.

The fit was perfect because I ordered a ½ size up as recommended by others. They are soft and comfortable!

This is a really comfortable shoe. Very soft leather. Dress them up or dress them down! Low wedge heel is attractive and definitely adds to the versatility of this shoe. Not your ordinary flat!

The material and shape of these shoes are really nice. They are pretty and at the same time are probably really comfortable. I have a high arch on my foot, so the toe part pressed down too tightly on it. But for most people who have normal issues, this wouldn't be a problem. So I would still recommend these shoes.

I first ordered these shoes in my regular size, then after reading reviews, I ordered them in another color and in a half-size larger. So these I re-ordered in the half-size larger, and I find them to be comfortable. I put them on for the first time today and wore them all day, and they even accommodate the bunion on one foot. Well made and beautiful.

I love this brand and I love this shoe. I have two pairs of French Sole and will be watching the site for more. Thank you Zappos.

I think I am going to like these shoes. The fit is good, they are a quality shoe and wearing them in the house to break in, they feel good. But I have not worn them outside yet or done any significant walking, those tests are yet to come. Right now, there are no red flags, everything about these shoes is positive. I have no regrets and look forward to having them in my wardrobe.

Loved the style of the shoe but unfortunately it was too snug for my liking. I’m a size 8 1/2 and it felt too tight so I had to return and order a half size bigger.

I’m so glad I bought a 1/2 size bigger than I normally wear because if I would have bought my normal size, they definitely would have been too small. These shoes are amazing. They are beautiful and super comfortable. I hesitated at buying them due to the price but they are so worth it. Love them!

I have been a huge fan of FSNY for years. These did not change that opinion. They are always a little tight and stiff when you first put them on but the more you wear them the comfier they get. These are an adorable addition to my closet and love how they catch the light differently than my silver matte ones. They are definitely an investment but as someone who has worn my other set for 4 years almost every day, they are worth the price in craftsmanship and construction!

I LOVE these shoes. BUT they are way small. I ordered the 8,8 1/2 and 9. The nine was finally long enough but by sizing up they we sloppy in the heal and gapped at the sides. I am very disappointed as I really would love to have these. Good thing there is such great service at Zappos. I will continue my hunt for shoes that work for me!

The black snake print suede is such a pretty shoe. They are comfortable and feel soft but hold a shape. The wedge is a good look. I have a bunion so appreciate the cut which looks stylish, but gives the right amount of coverage. I wear a size 6 and had to return for a six and a half. It does run small. Very pleased and may order in different color.

Italian made leather shoes, typical is that the leather so soft breathable but a bit narrow and small. For the price its great. I only wish the lining was sewn in, not glued in, but then it might make price go up.

I really like them! Needed to buy 1 whole size up, they run small. They are cute and comfortable. First time buying this brand, but I just ordered another pair in a different flat style.

Very cute and comfortable. I will be buying more shoes from this brand. Keep in mind that you should buy your correct size- do not size up or down. After the first wear they will seriously mold to your feet and fit like a dream.

Very cute shoe--very small. I am a true 10; needed 10.5 and might even be able to wear 11. I already owned this shoe in the pewter leather and wear them to death in warmer weather, so I know I will get a lot of use out of these too.

I own two pair, the black snake which I still wear after 7 years and a grey pair which I have owned for three years. Both look great. The inside sole does come loose and that is my only complaint - I have it re-glued at a shoe hospital. I have purchased flats for double the price and these are much better in comfort and durability. I teach kinder and kids are always stepping on my feet, the snake print will not crack or wear off at all.

I love, love, love this shoe, but unfortunately, the size 11 runs way too small for my normally sized 10.5 foot. This shoe runs a full size smaller than I'd expect, and although some reviewers said it may stretch, that seemed too much to expect given how tightly the shoe fit. I am so disappointed, because I love everything else about this shoe. Comfortable and VERY stylish.

Great flat especially around the office. I've gotten compliments on how cute it is. Order half-size up. I want to order all the colors!

I have this same shoe in another color, so ordered in the exact same size...and as several other reviewers noted, they're making them smaller. This is a full size smaller than the ones I already have in the same size. Very sad, as I love these shoes and they don't have my size available.
