Very comfortable and nice quality
I love this brand. But the 6.5 med I bought at the same time in a patten leather vs this style in a 6.5 wide is actually different in length. I do have a wide foot but the medium fits great. The 6.5 wide actually gives me an extra half inch in length so it fits more like a 7. It is really soft and stylish. It resembles Teiks without the pricetag. Which is what i wanted. Gives more support than a cheap ballet flat. I debated exchanging it but, they didn't have a 6 wide available in black or a 6.5 med and i will just add an innersole to make sure doesn't slip off.

Very comfortable
I love these flats. They fit perfect and so comfortable. I don't like to wear sneakers when wearing capri pants and these are just perfect. At my age heels are too dangerous, don't want to fall.

The perfect comfy, casual flats (and no breaking in period!)
Let me preface my review by saying that I am very picky when it comes to shoe shopping. After my previous flats wore out (to the sole!) I knew I had to go shopping for another. The search was on, and before finding this pair I actually had ordered 3 others! My common issues with flats are that my feet are quite wide and thick, but fairly short. I also always have to deal with that horrible break in period with flats where the back of the shoe rubs my heel to the point of blistering.I tried a type of Bandolino flat on in DSW, and was wowed by the comfort. The elastic around the perimeter of the shoe makes it so there is honestly no rubbing. The only thing making me not consider it the perfect shoe was that they don't come in wide sizes. I normally wear a size 6.5 wide, (my feet measure 23cm for exact reference) but found the 6.5 wayyyyy too tight. The 7 is better.The shoe is still too narrow for my feet, and it makes it a little off to walk, but the amazing level of comfort made it so I was able to excuse the incorrect width. I've never had a flat that didn't initially rub my feet, but with these I've had no problem. The inside is a soft suede material, and I feel like my foot is perfectly hugged. My toes are a little squished, but I'll try and stuff them with socks to stretch them out a little more.Another amazing thing about these flats is that when I walk in them they stay on my feet. This might change once I wear them more, but with most flats, my heel automatically begins to pop up out of the back when I walk, so my toes try to compensate by scrunching up and grabbing the shoe to keep it on. I am not sure if this is an issue other people have with flats, but once the shoe stretches out, it always seems to happen. That's why the fact this shoe is slightly tight for my feet, and the elastic part, makes it so this hasn't yet become an issue, and I can walk comfortably without my heel slipping up. (Knock on wood!!)I wish these shoes came in wide sizes, as I'd honestly consider them perfect then. However, for anyone with normal or normal to wide feet, these shoes will work wonderfully! I've tried several types of aerosoles, easy spirit, blowfish, and none of them compare to these as far as the initial comfort. You won't need to wear bandaids on your heels for the first week of breaking in, instead you'll completely forget you have these on your feet!I noticed that even my short toes show some toe cleavage with these shoes, so if you have long toes I think you'll definitely show that.One other very small issue I have is that I think the inner material will easily cause sweating and absorb smells. So far they haven't, but blowfish flats have a similar inner suede lining, and I've had trouble with them.For anyone with wide feet, order a half size up! Your feet will still be a little wide for the bottom of the shoe but it will still most likely be comfortable.

GREATEST PAIR OF SHOES I'VE BOUGHT IN AGES. I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS EXACT SHOE AND AMAZON HAS IT
I am a true shoe a-holic if there is such a thing - I am very fussy and particular when it comesto shoes. Never wear anything but 100% leather and am critical of a specific toe box.This fantastic shoe checks all my requirements and now I am going to go back to the site to see itit comes in any other colors. IT IS A HOME RUN OUT OF THE PARK ALL THE WAY! Neverthought I'd find it....AND IN SOFT GORGEOUS REAL LEATHER!!!!! YES!!!!!So comfortable - won't even need break-in time; good to go this minute!

Great shoes
Second pair of these. Same style. Very comfortable from day 1. I can wear these for hours and they feel as good the first hour as the last. Wear socks or liners with these..as with all flats...your feet sweat and they get stinky. Only gave three stars due to the finish on the toe is cracked and scuffed, however I've worn them everyday for weeks and it's barely noticible.

Best Black Flats I've Ever Had
As an elementary school teacher, I have been on a quest lasting many years for simple black flats that don't hurt after a day of running around the classroom and beyond. These flats have finally passed the test. I've been wearing almost every day for a week now, and I have had zero pain-- not even the first day!! They have a memory foam feel to the sole, and the top edge is made of a soft elastic material so they don't cut into your for or leave abrasions by your toes. I am really happy that I bought these shoes, and I recommend them to anyone looking for simple, comfortable, and stylish everyday shoes.

Soft, supple shoes
Love these! Good quality, comfy, exactly what I was looking for. I wear a size 10. They're a tiny but tight, especially on my left foot. (I'm a lefty!) Would I order again? Definitely! Would I order up? Maybe, if there's a half size, but maybe not. I suspect a little wear will form these soft, supple shoes to my foot making them as comfy as a slipper! I'll update if I come to anything more definitive. I have not had to wear these a full day.
