Arissa Square Toe Ballet Flat (Women)

The leather is buttery soft and the shape of the shoe with a higher vamp cups your feet perfectly. They feel very secure for flats and are very comfortable. However they have zero arch support and padding. Even walking around my tiled floor, I can tell I’m going to need some inserts to walk any amount of time in these. Because the leather is slightly thinner, you can see some toe action through the leather. The shoes are also very long. I’m normally a 7/7.5, ordered a 7 and am going to return for a 6.5. I think these are meant to be longer and give you a more narrow foot look but I didn’t like the amount of extra room past the toes. Overall, super cute shoes and very soft comfortable leather. I love the style, they are more interesting than the everlane day glove flats and are super flattering and on trend.

This is my daughter’s review (I bought these shoes for her): Typically, I am a size 4-6 in most flats and sneakers and a size 3 in sandals, I am very happy to have found a shoe that fits like a glove! It is very comfortable, and I guess it would run smaller for those who are a true size 5, but it’s still a little bit of a gap in the back for me, personally. When walking it’s not a problem though. The one layer of leather makes it very comfortable and there is no chaffing. It will likely stretch out in time but I don’t think that would be too much of a problem for those who are a true size 5. I would highly recommend to other petite women!

Happy I read other reviewers before purchasing. I am usually a size 9 in most brands of footwear. Because other reviewers said this shoe ran large I ordered both the 8 1/2 and the 9. The 8 1/2 was the better fit for me. I love the snakeskin print and the softness of the leather. Maybe not the most supportive shoe but I don't expect that when purchasing flats. I love the squared off toe. Makes your foot look really nice. Very happy with this purchase.
