Love these, just got them in the mail. They fit true to size for me, but I suppose that it's the way your toes are. I bought a size 11, since that's what I usually buy my Chucks in. Very cute, very comfortable, does not rub my heel (like my current flats do). Only wish that Zappos had these in the Red like Converse has on their website. All in all, love 'em!

Aesthetically, this is a true feminine slip on ballerina sneaker to wear with skirts, shorts, or even dresses...in theory, but the grommets added in back to weave the lace through is a major design flaw. After walking from box to mirror I literally felt like a blister would pop up instantaneously. This would work for me, even with no arch support as a play time sneaker without that the metal grommets in the back.

I usually wear size 9 in Converse, but needed these in a 9½. They feel a bit narrow, too.

These shoes are really cute! But the toe box is really narrow...really narrow. I have "dainty" feet but when you take a step in these slip-ons the shoe constricts the natural widen of your feet, it's kinda painful. :(

So comfortable! I have trouble finding flats that aren't too narrow and not too contoured on the arches. These are great.

I've been a Converse fan for many many years, and when I saw these Dainty Ballerinas, I knew if I didn't at least give them a whirl, I'd wish I had done so for a long, long time. And they are just as darling as I hoped they would be. When the "Zappos Bunny" delivered them, I literally took my size 7 green Converse off (that I've had forever) to try these on. My wish for instant gratification was denied: Too small in the toe box. By ordering a couple other sizes, I ended up with a pair 1/2 size bigger than what I usually wear. Like all Converse there is absolutely no support, and the sole on these feel even flatter than "regular" Converse. I highly recommend some inserts. Overall, these fit very well, except for the slight rubbing against the back of my foot from the very top of the shoe. (A carefully placed band-aid is working. I'm hoping with time they will ease up/stretch there.) "Cool!" from both husband and brother (also long time Converse fans), constantly worn about the house from teenage daughters who hope that their feet will instantly grow just a couple sizes more...and surprised positive comments from general public on such a novel shoe by Converse. Thumbs up for Chuck Taylor! I don't regret paying the this price for flats...I'll be wearing them for a long, long time.

These shoes exceed my expectations. They are beautiful! The ballerinas are simple yet feminine. The only down part is that they ran small. I wear 7 in normal Converse, and order them in 7 as well. They were too small. Order at least half size larger.

Quality-made, darling shoes! I am sad that I have to return them: the toe box is too small and tight, and so the edge of the canvas digs into the top of my foot--ouch!

Cute shoes that I've had my eye on for awhile. But as with other reviews, they are too snug in the toe area. I walked around my house for awhile to see if the fit would get better - it doesn't and I imagine as your foot swells throughout the day it would just become unbearable. I ordered a Size 11 which is my normal size. Maybe if they came in a 11.5 or 12.

I followed the advice of some of the reviews that said to buy a size up and yeah, not a good idea. They were far too big, so I returned them for my correct size. I wear 8.5 and that should have been what I ordered! I do not have wide or narrow feet, just normal size but kind of flat. That said, these are adorable! I got them in red and they are the cutest shoes, perfect with capris, jersey knit skirts, jeans and shorts. They feel like regular Chuck's, so don't expect a lot of arch support (but much better than completely flat shoes). I'd love to have these in a million colors, everyone asks me where I got them.

Just got these in, and they're adorable. However, I normally wear a size 8.5 in Converse, so I went ahead and ordered them in that same size but unfortunately they run small so I have to exchange them for a half size larger. Hopefully that will be enough. Wish I knew they ran a bit small before I had ordered them.

I like this shoe. I will be returning them, however, because the rubber toe cap on one of the shoes is not straight. Guess I got a defective pair. Not sure if I will reorder this style I don't want to have to send back another if it is defective too.

These are super cute casual shoes. Unfortunately, the sizing is off. Went a half size up after reading the previous reviews. I have a narrow foot so I always wear a spenco dress insert in my chucks to take up space but in this pair they still didn't fit. Love the style and color but sadly, these are being returned.

Great style but I unfortunately agree with another person who said that these shoes were a 1/2 size too small. I always take a 8.5 (narrow feet but can handle the med width) but these things, although very cute, were tight in the toe. I re-ordered the 9 but I find in the rare occasion that I can't do an 8.5, the 9 is usually too big, but we will see. I will let you know! I love Zappos, but so far I have ordered one Lacoste slip-on that was somehow missing the vertical spine that runs from the sole to the top of the heel, and kept falling down in the back of the heel no matter what I did (and they fit otherwise). The second Lacoste pair of canvas slip ons had a scratchy plastic stitching around the top inside of the shoe which made it impossible to wear with scratching your whole foot and ankle and the third pair (Converse) I ran into the whole 1/2 size too small thing, when I always take a 8.5. I did keep the cute Lacoste navy and white check canvas slip ons in the 8.5...those were the only ones with no problems...but Zappos has great great service and so I don't mind so much. Great place to do business with.
