"These shoes are lovely. The leather is sumptuous, I really wanted to love them, but sadly they aren’t going to be my everyday shoe. I am usually a 39 in Sarah Flint heels, but it feel like flats are way more complicated. I ordered a 38.5 and a 39 to be safe and tried both on around the house. The 38.5 was a little too tight to be comfortable and felt like they weren’t going to give with wear. The 39 was a little looser than ideal. I waffled between the two for a long time and finally settled on the 39 and wore them out. Big mistake, after less than a mile I had pretty severe blisters. But of course, I already wore them out of the house, so now I’m stuck with them. It really sucks for something that is such an investment. I’ll still give them 4 stars, because I’m definitely to blame, but for me they’re probably a 2. I really wish they would ship shoes with plastic protectors on the bottom, so I could test them around the house for longer without worrying they wouldn’t be returnable."

For the first time ever, we're debuting a core flat style with all the signature features of our Perfect Collection. Designed for all-day wear, the Perfect Ballet Flat includes arch support, a molded removable insole, an expanded toe box, and a flexible rubber sole, delivering comfort, stability, and a polished finishing touch in one.
The handwoven upper is a true testament to Italian craftsmanship. Each pair is made by a small artisan in Naples, where full leather strips are cut and hand-placed on a frame to create a unique woven pattern, with every pair requiring a full day of meticulous work. The addition of the hand-tied bow elevates the artisanal detail, combining centuries-old weaving techniques with modern design.
With its versatile silhouette, the Perfect Ballet Flat can be dressed up or down, making it a go-to for work, weekend wear, and travel.
Please note: This style is only eligible for loyalty point redemption. It is not eligible for discounts or promotional offers.

Very comfortable
"Very comfortable due to round toe, padding. However, one issue is black dye coming off inside the shoe onto your toes. This has never happened with a Sarah Flint shoe for me."

Stylish Travel & Everyday Flat
"I wore these out of the box as a stylish alternative to a sneaker when traveling to Florida- and they did not disappoint! They provided great support and also looked great with any spring look while it is still too cool in NE for an open toe shoe. Considering getting them In black as well!"
— Christine E. (5/5)
