Customer Reviews Wolky Ballet

I was delighted to find these, as the traditional ballet slippers tend to make my feet feel huge! These met all my expectations: comfortable (even without socks), very cute, look nice with trousers and skirts. They are great shoes!

These are adorable shoes that would go with everything. But, alas, they are too high around the ankle so had to return them. I love Zappos service; I have been a long time customer.

I now have 4 pairs of Wolky shoes and love their support. I ordered "Ballet" on the strength of my love of Wolky's "Passion," which adds mary-jane straps to the "Ballet" style. While both of my "Passion" pairs feel true to size, I find "Ballet" to be a trifle short-- enough to make the tips of my second toes sore after a couple of hours' wearing. I like the style so much that I'll hope the shoes become more accommodating with longer wear. The style is versatile for all but the most dressed-up occasion, and the support cradles my feet.

Really wanted these to work but size 40 was too small and 41 was too big. I am a true size 9. Nice looking shoe with a very comfortable footbed. If they fit would be great for travel/walking.

These shoes are very cute and comfy walking shoes that don't scream "walking shoes"....but the 38 was too small and the 39 too big. I'm usually a very easy to fit 7 1/2. Sad to be sending back.

Felt comfortable, unfortunately a bit too big and has to be returned. Also seemed to come up high - the edge of the shoe was hitting my ankle bones. I would imagine after a day of walking it would become rather painful.

Great looking shoe, and probably comfortable for a narrower foot than mine, but it didn't work for me.

No toe room even though the shoe was so large it literally fell off my foot while I was walking. I don't think they've mastered closed shoes.

The first pair was size 9-10 but was so short my big toes nearly punched out the end of the shoe. I usually wear a 9.5N or M. So I ordered the 10-11. At first I thought I could get by. My big toe still touched the top front of the shoe but not so much I was uncomfortable. And then I walked in them for a few blocks and found they were so loose I nearly lost one shoe. I have a pair of their sandals which are all-time favorites but their closed in shoes will obviously never fit me. So they are both going back.

I have ordered Wolky shoes before, and really find them comfortable. These however run short. I wear an 8, so ordered a 39. I knew a 40 would be too big, because they were a bit wide and the heel slipped until I wore them. I did wear them, and discovered they were too short for the big toe even though the toe area is wide enough and comfortable otherwise. I love the shoe and wish the length worked for my big toes. I will continue to order Wolky shoes.

Love the shoes, but they didn't work for me. Rubbed top of foot at opening and slanted toe box did not fit the contour of my toes. Therefore, my toes were pushing against the front of the shoes and slightly curled under.

The 43 is much closer to 11 than a 12; could not even get my foot in it. But it's a good looking shoe and looks like if it came in my size it would be comfortable.

They felt weird like Earth shoes (heel lower than the toes). It made me feel like I was swaying. They went back.

This style slims a large foot with a bunion and a hammer toe. I ordered a 10.5-11 size for my normal size 10 foot. Too small. My big toe was crunched. A wide width was not available for this style. B width was too narrow. I'm heartbroken and will return.

I really wanted to love this shoe and I really should have sent it back after I put it on my foot. They dug into my ankle bone, so I added inserts so the bone would be higher up. While that prevented the shoes from bloodying me, it didn't make them more comfortable. The are tight on the toes and are generally uncomfortable to walk in. It's my third pair of Wolkys and they are the only lemons. Coming soon to a consignment store near you.

This is the most disappointing purchase I have tried to make at Zappos. Normally I love everything about buying here. When the box arrived the shoe box looked well worn, like it had been tried and returned multiple times. When I opened the box, the shoes also looked like they had been tried on multiple times. The soles were fresh, but the uppers were scuffed. I loved the style so I tried them on anyway. Then I understood why they looked like they had been returned multiple times. These shoes run VERY small and narrow. Could hardly get my foot in. I don't know if it is the style or they are sized wrong, but definitely not for my foot. I like Wolky shoes and love this style, but this was not good for me, or apparently other people too.
