Customer Reviews Born Julianne

I have numerous pairs of Born ballet flats--I think they are the "Lilly" style. All size 6 1/2. But these, the Julianne," are just a bit too snug.

These shoes were so comfortable the minute I put them on. The insole provides soft squishy support for my tired feet and I wear these quite frequently to run errands around town. I feel the price is decent for the quality of the shoe but I wish they were less expensive so I could afford other pairs in this brand. I'm willing to spend more money on good brands of shoes and I would recommend this brand over ther similar less expensive brands that have been recommended to me.

I love Born and buy most of my flats from them. I like how they use real Leather uppers that can stretch some around my large bunions on both feet. Also I like how the cut never comes too low or high. I've had this shoe in various colors 4 times. My only complaint is the metallic leather does not give as Much as the other leathers.

This is a cute shoe in a neutral color (noche/tan). I wish it would have worked for me but the toe area was a bit too narrow & uncomfortable. I love Born shoes and they usually work well for me. This shoe is soft leather and nicely cushioned, especially for a ballet flat.

I bought these in a fun color and was looking forward to wearing them all of the time. They run big. Didn't grab my foot the way I needed them to. I still wear them but they are not my " go to" ballerina.

Very nice looking shoe, but not as comfortable as the Vionics I ordered. Returning only due to that reason.

Once upon a time, these came with a nice little toe ornament and were called Khari. Now they got rid of that embellishment and the shoe looks really boring and honestly kind of ugly. Thankfully I saved my previous pair and had a cobbler put the ornament to the new pair. These are really comfortable, though! Wish they weren't so plain Jane...

I loved the style and the beautiful nude punched leather. It looked exactly like it did online. I wanted it to work OS BAD! Unfortunately, the elastic pinched too much and made my feet felt cramped even though they seemed to otherwise fit perfect. I'm not a fan of the stretchy-flats and I hate wearing little sockies that always fall down. These puppies had to be sent back.

I have several much loved/worn out pairs of Born flats that I have been looking to replace. The Julianne is very comfortable but doesn't offer as much support as some of their previous flats. Great universal colors but lacking pizazz in the style

Great shoe, love the look. Does not work with my bunions.

The footbed of this shoe is very comfortable but the body of the shoe feels like it will rub against my foot. Since they are leather they might break in but I don't think I want to try.

Nice flats for work or night out. Only problem for me is the comfort level for a ten hour work day. By about hour five I'm ready to take them off, but my profession requires standing all day. Overall, good flat for work but not ideal if standing or walking all day.

Not very comfortable as expected

This is a comfortable supportive ballet shoe. However, I would not recommend this shoe for people with high arches (like pes cavus) who are seeking arch support. The arch support in this shoe is a bit low, but is probably fine for those with non-high arches.

Comfort is ok, but style is lacking. It's just a very plain shoe. Not sure if I'm going to keep or return.

Bought these for an event, mostly comfortable, but felt a little tight as the night wore on.

I love these shoes. Unfortunately they are tight on me, and I got my normal size. I will return and try 1/2 size up.

I have bought 2 pairs of these in the last week. I received the black in 8.5 first. I wear between an 8.5-9. I felt like they were a little snug. So I ordered brown in a 9. Which are more roomy. Has anyone felt like these shoes have stretched being leather. Don't know which ones to return.

Due to bunion and hammer toe surgeries, my feet are much wider in the front but still quite narrow in the heel. Even in the medium width, the only width available, these shoes are wide enough to accommodate my unusual feet and I love them. The heel stays on as I walk, not an easy find for me in a ballet flat. Give them a try!

This is a very comfortable flat with a perfect arch. I was torn, but it was just too plain for me.

Runs small!

Navy - Much lighter in color than expected. I was planning on wearing these to the office to go with Navy slacks/dress pants. They are too light in color, but are still attractive, comfortable & go great with jeans. The reason I kept them. They are high quality but not as well made as Sofft, which is surprising because generally this brand is top notch & worth the price.I bought these at the beginning of February and the sole around the ball of the foot is starting to slip and it does rub slightly at the front top but not enough that I wouldn't recommend them.

Beautiful shoe, slightly narrow, but well cushioned. The only reason I chose to return is because the area above the toe it 'higher' cut than I would like. I have long, narrow feet and I feel the extra coverage above the toes made my foot look even more 'elongated.'

Agree with other reviewers that the back of the shoe comes up high and did give me some blisters. That being said, I wore some blister protection pads because the support/cushioning of the shoe was needed for me to walk 6+ miles a day on a recent trip to Europe. Now that these are broken in, I will continue to wear on my commutes to work - I walk over a mile daily to get to work and don't like wearing out my professional shoes.

I LOVE these shoes. I'm ordering my second pair. Last year I conducted an extensive research project with the goal of finding the most comfortable pair of beautiful ballet flats in existence. I ended up ordering five different pairs of shoes, each in multiple sizes. These won, with Camper's Right Nina 21595 being a close second. They are very supportive and comfortable, and wide enough for the bunion-ridden sides of my feet. I never sit down when I'm at work, and I wore these all the time. I wore them so much that after a year they were looking ratty and stank to the high heavens. They run a bit small-- I usually wear a 9 or even 8.5, and I wear a 9.5 in these. I highly recommend them. Very comfy, and very cute. Goes with ANYTHING.
