Now the shoes fit fine, even a little bit large
I need to say that I wear size 10.5 but I have decided to order size 10. Of course the ballet shoes were small for my long feet, In order to make them bigger I have decided to wear them during the winter time at home, to put the socks on. Why? I am living in Kazakhstan and to send them back is very expensive for me. Now the shoes fit fine , even a little bit large, I think I have put too much efforts to stretch them. The shoes look exactly like on picture, very soft, very comfortable. You can check my profile I have ordered other colors as well.

Hmmm... 2 1/2 stars
They are good as a cheap shoe, to use for a short time. You can afford to have a couple of pairs to match specific outfits.But you get them cheaply because they are cheaply made.I don't think they would hold up to a long term outing. I haven't tried it yet but they seem flimsy.Also, they run small. I ordered a size up and am glad I did as these are still a bit snug.My main concern, though, was that one pair arrived with mould on the shoe. I thought it might have been due to the packaging. So I cleaned them but it returned as did the mouldy smell. Eventually I wiped them with vinegar and then sprayed them with Lysol. These seemed to do the trick. The other pair did not have this problem but no one likes their order to be faulty, even if you do pay less for it.

Love these flats
They’re comfortable right out of the box.The cut is very low; right down to the space between my toes. Still have room to attach a clip- on bow.Perfect !

Kinda nice for great price
I got these shoes THE NEXT DAY. I was thrilled with the shipping. I was however, a little sad that they were about half a size too big. I'm a true size 7 and can fit a finger at the heel if I slide my foot all the way forward. I figure I can wear those footsies socks with them eventhough I wish I didn't have to because the inside of the shoe IS genuine leather and very soft and comfortable. They look narrow but mold to your foot. (my foot is a little on the wide side) I ordered the brown and the color truly is a maple brown and not the orangey brown color as it shows in the picture. The outside isn't leather but they did a good job imitating it and looks/feels very realistic. The sole isn't the best of craftsmanship but it's non-slip, ribbed light rubber. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with these.

**Lasted one month before they fell apart**
***Update: The shoes lasted one month. I wore them on a trip, came home and two days later the sole tore away from the liner. I didn't even wear these frequently - just to a few stores and while shopping. Very disappointed** (9/25/16). I purchased these micro-suede flats to replace a pair that wore down. The micro-suede is soft, and clean looking (I prefer that my flats not appear shiny or glossy). The insoles of the shoes are made from leather - I am on the fence about this as the leather is comfortable but I seem to be developing blisters on my smallest toes after wearing the shoes. I wear a 9 and have never had a problem fitting perfectly into flats - these shoes do seem to be a bit on the tight side. The slip-resistant bottom of the shoes seems to function pretty well as I recently worn these in the rain.The quality of the shoe seems to be pretty solid - strong stitching, good construction and the rounded toe design of the front of the shoe looks nice. Overall, I'm rating these at four stars - I do think there is some room for improvement, but these shoes are a bargain at current price!

Great fit, good material
I had a pair of ballet flats (West Blvd) that I had bought off Amazon last year, and the soles were coming off. I was going to buy the same ones, but then I saw these were a bit cheaper. I'm so glad I tried them--they look well-made (for a $10ish shoe), and so far (2-3 weeks of wearing them every other day) they're holding up very well. They are just a smidge big (slipping just slightly in the back), but otherwise fine. I am always a size 7, so I ordered a size 7. Any smaller and I would think they'd rub. No arch support, but are you really expecting that in a cheap pair of flats? I would definitely buy again.

Poor construction
Update: The seam around the heel of this shoe tore within 2 months of use. They became completely unusable and ugly to boot. As a long-time flats wearer, I know a good pair of flats can sustain daily wear for over 6 months with my walking pattern. This pair barely lasted walking the dog. 2 stars, and just because the color was pretty. Otherwise, don't waste your money. I'd post a picture but apparently already threw them away.I ordered the Navy. One lady posted that her toes showed through, and I thought, "I have small toes, it won't be a problem." Funny story. These came and the right fit great, the left fit tight with my toe showing. I'm a size 9, 9 1/2 is too big, occasionally I can wear 8 1/2s. I've never had trouble with one foot being bigger than the other, so I can only assume the left shoe is slightly smaller than it should be.That said, the insides are soft and the color is really nice. I prefer dull tipped flats and these look really nice in the profile. The $10 flats I usually buy from Walmart are similar in quality. Hopefully the left foot stretches out a bit.

VERY NICE, pricewise and appearance.
Ladies, don't let the photo fool you, these are BROWN shoes, even though they appear to be a burnt orange color.I wear a size 9-my foot is somewhat wide, these shoes are comfy, I'm wearing them right now. First day, since they arrived yesterday Aug 14th. I believe the size you wear is what you should order, these shoes give a little I don't know if they are real leather (I doubt it). However I have these on without any stockings or socks. The price said they were originally $38.50, so that's a good markdown for these-and flats are definately in style this season, you can wear these to work, shopping or even church- or with tunics and leggings, straight leg jeans, skirts and most dresses. This brown is a rich caramel brown, looks like expensive leather, so if you are into designer handbags-you should be able to wear these shoes with that designer bag,no one being the wiser, The shoes look that nice. Who wants to spend $ 75 or more on ballet/flats anyway? I don't,especially when you can buy a bunch of these for less than $10.00

BETTER THAN I HOPED FOR
I love these ballet flats. You don't need to pack any other shoes when you travel. Leggings, jeans, dress/casual/semi-formal, or formal cocktail dress, these flats look fantastic with EVERYTHING. They are VERY true to size, so if you know you need your shoes just a teeny bit bigger, but not a half size bigger, buy your true size, and wear them with heavy damp socks for a few hours and in 2 or 3 days they will be your favorite, comfy, wear absolutely anywhere shoes!

Three Stars
Shoes are nice enough but way too small - and I bought up a size!

Yuck
Awful. Looks super cheap, like something you'd get at the dollar store.Makes feet look worse than runners, etc. And worst of all, makes this nasty noise any time I take a step. I will never wear these because of the noise factor alone. Shipping to Cnda is too expensive. Not very impressed :(
