Beautiful!
Wanted a ballet flat, without the bow. Love the toe cleavage! So comfortable right out of the box. Love them.

Very cute but hard to
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very cute but hard to get correct fit. I wear 9. 5 and they immediately expanded on first wear. Purchased the size 9 and had the same problem. These shoes immediately get bigger. Can’t afford to buy the 8. 5 ;(

What a shame
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoes are cute but on my first wearing I encountered a bit of rain. The shoes inevitably got a bit wet and now the leather is all wrinkled and lumpy .
Apparently these shoes are only for indoor use or when you know you have e perfect weather . I mean I wasn’t trying to hike in these but I figured leather shoes would be a bit more durable than that.

My first pair of FRYE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first pair of FRYE boots was in the late 50's and i've worn the carson ballet shoes for years. Love them. They are so well made and i love the style.

Carson ballet
Love the style, hate the stiffness of the leather and the super slick soles. I have owned several Carson ballet shoes thru the years, but no more. The quality has slipped drastically from what Frye has been known for.
