This is a very cute shoe. It comes in many colors, which is nice. But the reason I mention it, is because the sizes are not consistent depending on the color you buy. I am usually a 7.5 wide. So I purchased the beige nubuck color in that size. It was way too small. So I returned it and ordered an 8.5 wide. That was even a little snug at first, but after wearing it for a day, it felt just right. So then I wanted it in the tan full grain, as well. I ordered this one in the 8.5 wide, and this one is too big. When I compare the two different colors of 8.5, I can see that the tan is almost 1/2 inch larger. So now I've got to return the tan and order a smaller size. So my advice would be to maybe order a larger size if you order a nubuck, and true to size for full grain? It is a nice shoe though, if you get the size right.

This is my new favorite shoe- super comfortable. Dressy enough to wear with work clothes and skirts, but also casual enough to wear with jeans. Runs true to size.

OMG...I ordered 2 sizes (as I usually do) to try on. They are cute, well made, cushioned flat and I am sure they would be comfortable BUT the squeak that they make when walking is very irritating. Both pairs of shoes so it is in the construction. I looked up on the web as to why shoes squeak.; said it was ' 2 shoe parts rubbing together ' usually the sole. I thought I could fix that but the insoles of these shoes are designed sewn into the entire footbed. You cannot repair nor replace them. I am so disappointed that I have to return them. It is difficult to find a pair of quality leather flats esp. in dark brown. I'm sad :(

I got my usual size, 7.5 medium, in the grey. They fit perfectly, and so far, no squeaking. Hopefully that other reviewer just got a bad pair. This grey color is a blue grey and would not look good with gray pants or skirt. I think it's perfect for jeans, which is what I was hoping.

I ordered these shoes a few weeks ago and have been very happy with them. The break-in process is still ongoing after about 4 wears, but they will be really great soon. I was happy to see they were offered in a Wide, which allowed me to order my real size of 8.5 (instead of usually having to go up to a 9). And even in a Wide the shoe flatters and makes my foot look slim. I would like to order another color as well!

These are well made with excellent leather. Matches beautifully with other similarly colored leather bags and accessories with is a plus for me. The length was shorter than stated and the width narrower as well (I'm an 11w). Sizing up for me is not an option so I wear them in short sports....to the car then off. To my errand or event and off ASAP.

These shoes are simple yet classy. You can dress them up or down. Very comfortable even without a sock or hosiery - the fabric inside is so smooth against bare skin. Sole is very soft and comfy. So satisfied.

A surprisingly sturdy and comfortable shoe. I ordered this flat expecting a shoe without much cushion. I was pleased to find great arch support and high quality. The shoe is stiff out of the box, so there is a break in period. I wore bandaids on the back of my heels for the first few days of wear. Now that they are broken in, they are great for all day at work.

I love these shoes! After multiple foot surgeries, it has been difficult to find shoes that fit, especially ballet flats. These fit great, stay on the heel with the help of a bit of elastic, and have just enough cushioning. I bought the black because the look of the elastic is not so obvious. I took the other reviewers advice and bought a 9W instead of my usual 9½M.

Really cute ballet flat that is just the right amount of casual I was looking for to go with straight leg or skinny jeans. Fits well without the gapping you so often see with a ballet flat. Comfy too!

The shoe is very light but still very sturdy and well built so it makes it really comfortable to wear. I have wide feet and ordered the wide size and the width fit perfectly and it doesn't look like a wide shoe. The only down side was the shoe fits a little small in length. I wear the same size shoe in every shoe but this one is a little tight.

Cute shoe! I ordered and tried on a few different colors in this shoe. As others have noted, the colors fit a bit different from one another. The brown full grain and the gray nubuck were both true to size for me. The buckthorn brown felt large on my foot, and I wasn't thrilled with the color. In the end I kept the full grain brown and sent the rest back. Very comfortable shoe! The stitching and ribbon trim give it enough style to not be too plain. These will be my go-to shoes!

Love these, I will definitely be purchasing these in another color. They are very for me, for the NY city subway system, lots of stairs, etc. I purchased wide with even though I don't have wide feet, and they are perfect the front is rounded, so my toes have room to move..love, love!

I'm normally between a 7.5W and an 8W - the 7.5 fit much better than the 8. These are a great WW flat which can be very hard to find. I ordered the Olive color and was concerned it would have a hint of green but it's more like a dark brown. Just what I was looking for!

I really like these shoes. I ordered a second pair to walk to work and kick around on weekends. I leave the other pair to keep nice and wear while I am at work. Nice leather and quality. Initially I ordered another brand of black flats. They looked and fit cheap. So, I sent them back and ordered the second pair of these.

My new favorite flat. I have wide feet so it's hard to find comfortable shoes. These are super comfortable and easy to wear all day.

This is a very comfortable and attractive flat. I never really had to break them in and was able to walk in them right away. I love the tiny elastic detail around the foot, it gives a more dressy quality. The leather is holding up beautifully.

Wonderful, comfortable and super durable. I have owned these for almost a year and wear them at least once a week. They are insanely comfortable and go with both dressier stuff and jeans. And they have held up great.

They are so cute! But the toe box is really short. I wear 6.5M and needed to return them for a 7M and the 7M was way too big...and they do squeak when you walk but the look is worth it.

Love these shoes! I work retail and walk on concrete floors all day. These keep my feet feeling good all day, and they're still holding up quite well after 10 months of use. I wear them 2-3 days a week. Highly recommend!

These shoes are the perfect ballet flat if you will be on your feet! They took a little time to break in, but now they're super comfortable, and since they have a proper sole, I can walk around in them all day. They look cute with slacks or skirts.

These shoes are practical, comfortable, and they look pretty cute too. I was looking for a basic pair of brown flats that I could wear with anything. These fit the bill.

These are very pretty (I got the burgundy ones). I thought the little tan tab at the back would bother me, but no it does not. They seem a bit stiff and like they need to get broken in but otherwise comfortable and well made. Very happy with these!

I'm not much of a review "leaver" unless it's a product I love! These flats I love, I have them in brown and black. I'm always on the hunt for a great flat to go with dresses and or jeans and these do! I love the stitching, adds great character to the shoe, and they are comfortable, which doesn't happen in the world of flats. Love these!
