Wonderful Ballet Slippers
I needed some ballet shoes for an adult beginner class and I picked these based on all the various reviews, but the real challenge was figuring out my size. So I read all the reviews and figured that I should order 1 size up since most said using street sizing wasn't accurate. I'm a size 7 (sometimes 7.5 if I need some extra space in the shoe) and I have a very narrow foot, so I ordered a size 8 in the rose quartz. PERFECT FIT! There isn't any additional space in the heel and my toes have enough room to move but not too much room that it feels loose. Even the arch is perfect, I have a natural high arc in my foot and this slipper molds perfectly to it.The leather is nice and smooth, feels good to the touch. I do like how the drawstring can be tightened just in case but I will be cutting the string shorter since its too long. The straps are pre-sewn. I will say that the rose quartz isn't really any type of pink/rose shade, its more of a light tan color which is great for me. I'm darker and wear flesh colored tights so its a better look than pink slippers. I can't gush enough about these slippers, as soon as I opened the box at my desk I put them on and haven't taken them off yet, they are that comfortable.

Soft
Nice quality leather and soft on the inside. Fits like a glove. The pic is the size 9.5 ballet slipper on a street size 8.5 shoe foot. As you can see the fit is slightly snug in the toe area. We are going to keep them as people say the leather stretches a bit to form to the foot. If it were canvas I would order a larger size. Comfy and well made slipper. Order 1 to 1.5 size larger depending on the type of fit you prefer.

Good Quality Shoes
Just like the classic ones I used to wear in the 1980’s! Now bravely taking adult ballet classes as a 60 year old. Wanted leather material and split pads on bottom of slippers. Elastic straps already sewn on. They feel small and somewhat tight (I ordered an 8.5 and I wear an 8.5 women’s shoe.) but I have very wide feet. I wore them around the house for a few weeks and they stretched out a bit. Plus, I like a tighter fit to my ballet shoes Was happy to get these at a discounted price.

small
great shoes, they show off your arch and are pretty comfy, just order a size or 2 up they run very small and narrow.

My favorite leather ballet shoes
My favorite ballet shoes. They fit good and have a fuzzy lining in them which makes them incredibly comfortable and warm. I like that they come already sewn and that the leather is nice and soft yet doesn’t tear. Mold to my foot beautifully.

Inner sole is very cheap
I always wear a 7 in street shoes. I ordered an 8 in these and they fit great. The exterior leather in nice. My only issue is that the inside sole looks like a cheap foamy material. I don’t think it would last longer than a month. For that reason I am returning them.

Love
Second purchase. My daughter enjoys this style over the one strap ballet shoe. She wore them until the very end which lasted her about a year(they didn’t look pretty) we ended up going only a 1/2 bigger the regular shoe size and it’s worked out. Long lasting. I was shocked to be the price increase for the size we previously purchased. It was almost double what we paid last year. But thankfully the size we needed was only $8 more.
