The price is right, I was looking for a simple, no frills, but stylish black ballet flat. I love the slight point of the toe and the turquoise lining that peeps out, however man these babies are small! I wear a size 11 and these are painful and feel like a 10. I am hoping they stretch a bit, I have been wearing them everyday hoping they get more comfortable. They do make my feet look smaller (maybe because the shoes are too small!). Toes crossed they break in well, otherwise I'm passing them on to a size 10 wearing friend.

I wear a size 11 narrow, so usually I can put a foam pad in a shoe like this to take up space. This shoe in a size 11 is very small and is at least a half to a full size smaller. It is very cute so I'm dissappointed in the fit.

I am a huge Blowfish fan on my 8th pair of this brand, but not so much with these shoes. I got the same size I normally do and it usually fits perfect, but because of the point in these shows it makes them significantly more narrow than their other flats. Also not sure if it is just me, but I have noticed when buying blowfish shoes that the shoes with the purple lining are more comfortable and seem to be better made than the shoes with the green lining. These are definitely not my favorite pair of shoes. I will be sticking to the rounded, purple lined varitey with this brand.

Cute shoe but too small and quite uncomfortable around the heel area.

Runs small. I wear a 10 and my toes were smushed. I’m not sure why there’s no such thing as a 10.5 in women’s shoes. They’re going back.

Felt too floppy. I ordered a half size larger because of all the reviews that said they ran small. The toe area was way to wide. Wish they fit better.

Sorry, I wanted to like these but they're super cheap (like most shoes these days) and very wide. I even have bunions and by no means have narrow feet. I just measured the width of my foot for this review, and it's 3 3/4! These shoes are wide and not very long for an 8 1/2, though I would have made that work. You can see the blue insides when you have them on, but not in a cute way, it a one side doesn't fit all kind of cheap shoe way. Definitely returning. Oh, and Blowfish writes their name on the SIDE of the shoe.

I thought I'd love these, but I didn't. The back of the shoe raises up higher than other flats. It hits the sides of my tibia bone and isn't comfortable for me. It's odd. Unfortunately, I already wore them outside so I can't return them.

who ever designed these shoes hates feet and wants them to suffer.

These shoes are narrow in the toes! Definitely order a half-size up to accommodate for the pointy toe. The toe box is also too low for me; I have high-arching big toenails, and my toenails were poking up into the top of the shoe. Definitely would have worn it down quick. I typically wear size 8 in shoes, but tried 7.5 since I'd be wearing these barefoot. Way too small! Zappos didn't have size 8, so I tried 8.5 and while they seemed to fit, my toenails were still poking into the tops, plus the shoes were rubbing into the insides of my feet. And I don't have wide feet. I can't imagine how these would feel if you had wide feet. Also, both sizes had toe cleavage. Returning!

This shoe may not be the prettiest, but I was very comfortable. My biggest issue with it was how cheaply it was made. I work in an office and walk on carpeted floor, I wore these shoes 2-3 days a week for a little over a month before about and inch of the sole unglued at the front. Never had this happen before, even with $15 flats.

These are hard to break in. I have worn them a handful of times now, with a lot of walking and they are still tight in the toe area. I really wish I would have ordered a half size up.

I ordered these to replace a much-beloved pair of shoes from this brand I bought a few years ago that are wearing out. Unfortunately, this shoe is simply too small and I am returning it.

LOVED the style of these shoes so I bought them in this colour and the brown paisley. I kind of splurged buying 2 pairs at once, so I was disappointed to see how flimsy these were made. The sole just seems to be a very flat, non-supportive sole about like a cheap flip flop. NO support at all. They also have a very slick sole so you can't wear them when it wet w/o watching your step lest you go sliding to your humiliation. Other that that I love the style and would have been quite happy if they had been made just a bit better. More than a tad disappointed, so much so, I am now wary of the brand.

I loved the style of this shoe. I normally wear an 8 1/2 that was too small, I returned them for a 9 and again too small. So unfortunately as cute as they are the sizing is way off

I bought these shoes a few years ago and loved them, although they have no cushioning at all, I added an insert and they were fine. When they wore out I bought another pair and they are terrible. They are stiff and I can not break them in. I wore them with socks and band-aids hoping to loosen them up but no luck, they are so uncomfortable and unforgiving. Save your money and buy something a little nicer with some comfort and support.

The shoes made a little bit of a squeaky noise when walking and my big toes pushed the shoes up in a weird way. The brand name (Blowfish) was printed on the outside of the shoe which seemed weird to me. Going to have to return them.

These are so stiff, just couldn’t wear them for more than a few hours. Instant rub against the back of my ankle- just hurt too much!

Cute shoes but one word describes them, "OUCH". They rubbed the backs of my feet raw the first time I wore them. It was so bad that I won't try to "Break them in".
