Customer Reviews Hush Puppies Chaste Ballet

I purchased these to wear to a wedding and have been wearing them entire days to test the comfort and overall support. My feet swell and the elastic around the opening turned into a tourniquet on my foot and the result was not good. If I can figure out a way to alleviate that some then the shoes will work just fine. Overall appearance is fine, but I'm more into comfort rather than looks. I've ordered two more pair and may keep them to wear as backups for my other shoes.

Wonderful service from Zappos! Incredible! Return policy so easy! Shoes run a little tight in the heel.

I have very narrow feet - to the point of sometimes having to go down a half size (moreso in heels and boots) just to get them to stay on. I was able to order my regular size in these - in narrow, of course. They fit well. I have not had a chance to wear them yet as it has been a bit rainy.

Cute shoe to wear with jeans, capris, skirts. I have bunions, ordered wide. Comfortable fit.

I purchased first the leopard print Chaste Ballet flat and then the black stud. They are both very cute, but fit differently. I purchased 6.5 wide in both; the leopard print is very roomy and soft in the toe area. The black stud is slightly tighter, and has a scratchy fabric inside that really irritated my pinkies. I did add heel cushions in both to avoid blisters. I will probably end up wearing invisible socks with the black stud pair; given a choice, I would go with the leather shoes.

First of all these shoes are SO CUTE!!! It is October 1st and the orange with studs feels so fall. They really don't look cheap. Secondly, I have never bought these ballet shoes before because I thought they would not be comfortable for me. These are very comfortable. There is some nice cushioning on the heel.

I have narrow feet and have a hard time finding narrow flats. These are quite cute.

Fits well on my narrow foot. The elastic over the ball of the foot caused discomfort after wearing all day but not other complaint. I did return the 7 1/2 N for and 8 N.

I love these shoes. I bought them for a wedding. They feel a little tight but they stretch. A little squished in the toes, and color fades after a lot of wear. I should have gone with a wide. But still I wear these all the time.

This ballet slipper in the wide width is the only one I've found that will accommodate my moderate bunion problem in the toe box without slipping off my narrower heel. I have them in leather and in microfiber. The footbed is soft with a cushion at the arch but there isn't enough support to allow someone that pronates to walk miles in them or be on their feet for hours and hours. I would pay lots of money for a shoe that could keep the true ballerina profile and put sufficient arch support in. That's the only reason for the 4 in comfort.

I wanted to love these shoes. I am trying to rebuild my shoe wardrobe after my double bunion surgery last year. They are too tall on the Achilles tendon for me and they are way too snug.

Disappointed these didn't work. I need more support. The arch (which isn't much at all) was sewn onto the innersole and was irritating to my sensitive feet and the heel cut into mine.

I always buy Hush Puppies. This particular pair is ok but not as soft as the other simple ones with no design. I think it is the studded design on it that makes it stiff. It kind of pinches in the front making it feel smaller in size.

I have two pair of these shoes and both are suede. I thought these would be suede, as well, as the description says "Leather or suede". However, they are fabric, not suede. I'll keep them, as they look just fine, but perhaps the description needs to be changed to be an accurate depiction of the shoe in navy.

These are beautiful soft, flat shoes. I have to return them because I just needed something with a little more support, especially on the sides. Perhaps leather instead of suede would have made them work better for me. The shoes were not quite snug enough on my narrow feet.

I bought these after bunion surgery. They are extremely soft and easy to wear. The sole isn't as wide as the shoe accommodates for, but they are comfortable enough to look past that. If a shoe fits, buy it in every color! I'll be doing that!

My feet are wider at the front than in the back, and these are the only ballet flats that stay on my feet. The heel elastic part does dig into my heel, which is definitely a downside. The wide with is not quite wide enough, I am going to try the WW sizing. I love the way the shoe looks and stays on. I will try again with the sizing.

These are really cute shoes but not for something who does a lot of walking or standing as there is virtually no arch support. I got a full size larger than normal because I have extremely wide feet (4E) and that was sufficient width, but of course, also a little long. There is some rubbing on the ankle that gets uncomfortable after a while though.

I am wearing these shoes for the first time, so please take this in mind when reading the review. I know if I don't review now, I'll forget later! I agree with another reviewer, the top back of the shoe is currently digging into my leg. But I put a band-aid on and it's all good. Hoping in time, it will break itself in. I went up a 1/2 size and they fit good. If you are a borderline size, I'd go up a 1/2 size but otherwise I'll say true to size. I was worried a bit about the small sole but given that they are hush puppies they have a pretty good cushioning (in comparison to when you look at the sole in the picture). They are super cute! Metallic gold but not in an obnoxious way. Overall, happy. :)

Great shoe! Easy comfort, and the width is awesome. The color is lovely and goes with a lot of different kinds of outfits. It is mostly comfortable for walking long distances. Would have liked a little more support on the bottom (perhaps thicker sole?), and some arch support. Unfortunately I could not add a slip-in arch support as it pushed my food out. However, the shoe will do great for work and home. Highly recommend if you are looking for a casual flat that can help "dress up" an outfit.

This shoe is cute, great color, comfortable but for the elastic around the edge which gets tighter the longer you have them on. They are a half to 3/4 size smaller than marked, and a little narrow as well. I bought a half size larger and they are just OK.

I ordered an 8 which was too short. Am exchanging for 8 1/2. Elastic on heel is irritating but maybe just need breaking in.

Friends! When everyone says a shoes runs short! Don't be like me... Listen. ;-) I NEVER wear longer than a 10 in a shoe that comes WW, usually a 91/2, but this shoe is short! Very cute and I'll for sure reorder.
