These ballet flats are incredibly comfortable, and I wear them everywhere--with jeans, skirts, leggings, whatever. They do run small and only come in whole sizes, so do size up. I'm a 7.5 and ordered an 8, which is fine. They don't have any arch support, so be aware of that, as well. They wouldn't be good for someone who needs a lot of support and structure in a shoe. I now own 4 pairs and counting of Yosi Samra's flats, and love all of them. The price point is good, too. I wear these shoes all the time, and even though the worry might initially be that they look flimsy, they're not. They wear super-well and are still going strong after a lot of time on my feet!

I was hesitant on this pair of shoes but needed/wanted a pair of rose gold shoes and this was about my only option, good thing I wanted a ballet flat at that! I was waiting on the arrival with much anticipation and when they arrived...I was shocked how amazing they feel! Truly, they are one of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn! And the color was just what I was hoping for. I go between 8-8 1/2 and the 8's are perfect! The 9 would've been huge! My ideal shoe is a 8W or 8 1/2 regular so if you have a slightly wide(r) foot,these WILL work! I'm definitely going to get another color too!

Overall I’m very happy with this purchase. I’m a teacher and I’m on my feet all day, so I’m always on the lookout for business casual shoes that fit my dress code requirements but also don’t leave my feet throbbing at the end of the day. These shoes so far are a good choice for me. I’ve worn them to church and walking around my neighborhood to help break them in, but they don’t seem to need it. I’m optimistic that these will be my go to shoes for the school year and I plan on buying more pairs in different colors. I’m a true size 8 and ordered an 8 and they fit perfectly. I also really appreciate the elastic band around the top of the shoe to prevent the shoe from slipping each time I take a step. Overall I highly recommend!

These shoes are the answer to a search that's lasted at least a year. I wanted a shoe that I could wear to work for a whole day and not be counting the minutes until I could pull a Mr. Rogers and switch them out for flip-flops, and I wanted to be able to wear them with a pair of jeans on the rare occasion that I go somewhere that requires my toes be dressed. I tried a few pairs of basic flats that were just eh and then I found an ad for Tieks online - and then it seemed like their ads were everywhere. I liked the look of the shoe so I saved up my pennies and finally splurged on a pair. And I hated them. My biggest complaint being that the upper is so thin that the entire outline of my big toe was visible, but also the rubber sole of the shoes were narrower than the bottom of the shoe which caused me to slip/slide as I walked. Then, I found Yosi. These shoes cost half what the Tieks cost, the leather feels just as buttery and lovely, when on my foot the shoe feels like a luxurious sock (which is gracious enough not to expose every detail of my big toe), and the soles of the shoes are actually as wide as the shoe bottom which ensures that I walk like an adult human that hasn't been drinking at 9 am. These shoes are so comfortable and so cute that I've already purchased a pair in another color and am on the brink of replacing a pair of passable but ehhhh black flats I bought during the year long search with a pair of these. So, I guess what I'm saying is - I couldn't be happier with these shoes.

LOVE these flats! I can wear them all day on my feet with no issues. They do have a tiny bit of padding, but absolutely no arch support (which works out perfectly for me as I have extremely flat feet and arch support just makes my feet hurt). These are PERFECT for traveling! I packed them in their little included bag and wore them all over Paris - walking through museums and over cobblestone streets for ages. They held up nicely and are even more comfortable as time goes on. They are leather and do stretch a tiny bit to form to your feet. I usually wear an 8-8.5 and find the 9 fits me best in these (I have 3 pairs). I like these MUCH better than Tieks, which never felt as comfortable to me. I think it's the difference in the elastic around the top of the shoe - TIeks is kind of folded and these Yosi Samras are a flat elastic which was a lot more comfortable to me.

These are very cute shoes, and flexible as bedroom slippers. I wear an 8, ordered an 8; the shoes fit but are a bit too snug. Probably a 9 would have fit too, since they are rather elastic. I would not want to wear these outside with any moisture on the pavement, because they are meshy.

These shoes are great because i have a narrow feet with bunions. Even though they are narrowed I have always worn "M" in with, so no difference here on the "M" from other shoes. I'm 6.5 in shoes and the 7 fit perfect. I really like that they are flats and feel like I can wear them at work. The material looks slightly cheap, not the as comfortable as tennis shoes, and wish the tag at the back wasn't so high -- but other than that I really like how they don't bother my bunions.

Like these cute little shoes considering the other quality brands are $200+ but was sad to see the fabric on the heel fraying already since they didnt design the sole to go back far enough. My picture tell the story better.

These shoes are really cute and comfortable, but they run REALLY small. I usually wear a 7.5-8, but in these I needed a 9! Because they have elastic around the top, I am able to wear them. I suspect an 8.5 would have been perfect, but they don't come in half sizes.

These are great. Honestly, I like them way more than my Tieks. My feet hurt when I wear my Tieks but I can wear these all day long and they never hurt my feet. I am buying more of these instead of spending almost double on another pair of Tieks.

First off: I have a terrible time finding flats that are actually comfortable. I have super high arches and I wear a size 11 (which is also really hard to find) and there is literally one brand/style of shoe I like and they don't make them anymore. I've been wanting to try Tieks, but they're just so expensive. I work from home, I'm not rich, and I just don't want to take the gamble. So color me completely surprised and delighted that these shoes ARE AWESOME. They are simple and comfortable, and although I was a little alarmed that they were all squished up in a tiny box, it doesn't feel like I'm wearing socks. There's a good little cushion there, and the sole is pretty sturdy (it bends because it's made of two sole plates, not one, which is pretty genius). These are perfect for running errands or date night. I adore them and I'm definitely buying another pair.

LOVE THESE FLATS! I keep buying them because they are so perfectly soft and not constricting whatsoever. They let your foot move beautifully <3 (I do have a normal to wide foot and still these fit and feel fabulous!)

I ordered these flats with the star perforations and absolutely adore them!! These shoes are so comfortable and are perfect for the transition into the warm months! I wear a size 11 and these are true to size. They didn't run at all and I wore them for a 10 hour work day! I highly recommend these flats.

In love. I feel like I'm wearing slippers. I usually wear a 7 and ordered an 8 and they fit great. A little loose, but not so much that they fall of my feet. Fits perfect in the toe.

These are my second pair of Samaras; they feel a tad snugger that the first pair, which were perfect right out of the box. But I expect them to ease slightly. Overall, I’m very pleased with both pairs, and intend to get at least one more pair when my beloved but quite worn Pumas finally bite the dust.

These almost worked for me. I had to size up to a full size for the best fit (normally wear an 8). I do not like that they come folded up; I feel like these weakens the quality of the shoe even further, and ballet shoes are already at risk of being flimsy. It has an elastic band but that is a bit rough feeling. It is pretty, but all the little issues, combined with the cost, make it not worth it.

I have this style of ballet flat by frye, Lucky Brand, and Tieks. These are probably the most comfortable of all 4 manufacturers due to the elastic trim around the foot opening, it's not very pretty, but it certainly adds to the comfort. I purchased these in serpent, and they are the perfect color to go with a taupe cashmere wrap I love, so I think they'll work out fine.

I went up a full size from normal for length. They are a bit wide ever where but the toes but not falling off. I have never had to wear this size when not pregnant before. I am very picky about comfort and mostly wear barefoot style shoes. These are very comfortable, office appropriate, and attractive. I read another reviewer who compared the to Tieks that was right on. Not only are they less expensive and don’t scream the brand but they are also way more comfortable than Tieks, mostly because every part of the shoe is softer and more flexible. I have already got another color.

I really love these shoes but I have one small problem with them. I normally wear an 8. I have these in a 9 and they are tight enough at the toe and the leather is soft enough that the impression of my toenail shows through. Sometimes it's a little uncomfortable and sometimes it just looks weird. I tried ordering a 10 but it's at least a 1/2 inch larger than the 9 so that didn't help. The shoes are so cute though and the leather is so soft and beautiful. I keep wearing them but I wish the fit was a little more accurate. Compared to Tieks, I feel like buying Yosi Samra is a no-brainer!

These do run small. I am a 6.5 and going up to the 7 did not work. Too much pressure on my toes. I finally went with the 8, but it really is too big. I will be keeping them, because I can get along with them....but, going up one size to a 7.5 would have been best, but not available. On the plus side, they are soft, the sole is cushioned and the color is great.

I ordered the pale taupe color. That particular color gave a more casual look than what I had hoped for. The toe box was also the slightest bit narrow on me. I will probably return these, considering the price.

Got these in the rose gold. Adorable!! However, I have narrow feet, and to get these long enough to fit my (normally 7.5-8) foot, they end up being too wide. I also ordered a pair of leather ones (2.0 version), and those I will be able to keep. However, these being not leather, were just a bit too wide and I felt like they would easily pop off my foot if I was walking a bit fast (and I plan to wear a lot in airports as I hurry to flights).

I like how padded and comfortable the footbed is. Like other reviewers I find it weird that it comes folded in half and ultimate I just hated how wrinkled it looked.

These are very cute ballet flats, order a size half up. I am an 8 & 1/2, I ordered 9 and would not be able to go smaller. The only issue is the cake extremely bent in half and took time to unfold. I had my daughter with a larger foot wear then around the house so that I could put them on without them folding up uncomfortably.
