Customer Reviews Yosi Samra Samara Flat Leather

Love Yosi Samra ballet flats! In cold weather it's easy to find stylish and comfortable boots for day to night wear. But in warm weather I struggle to find something nicer than flip flops that I can walk in sockless without blisters. Flats with more structure rub my toes or heels or both. These are buttery soft leather that clings to my feet so no sore spots. They are like leather gloves for my feet. Perfect for jeans, leggings or dresses. They are similar to Tieks, and both better and worse. For me, they are much more comfortable out of the box. The elastic doesn't cut in to the edges of my foot, where my Tieks took a few wearings to loosen up. Even now these are more comfortable. On the other hand, the Tieks are dressier because the elastic is concealed. Also the Tiek leather is a little thicker and the sole looks more durable (The Yosis have suede soles under the rubber treads). On the other hand, these cost half as much as Tieks. Bottom line for me is that I love these shoes for being so comfortable and I'm excited to finally have a summer travel shoe that is both comfortable and suitable for dinner out. I wear an 8 in running shoes and most boots/dress shoes. A 7 in sandals and Sanuk sidewalk surfers. I have these in an 8 and they fit like a glove.

I love the neutral color, and the classic ballet flat look. I sized up per instructions and they are very comfortable --fit like a glove when on. I have this pair of the Samara style and 2 pairs of the cap toe Samantha style. I feel the Samara is just a bit shorter in length than the Samantha so sizing up seems wise. The leather is like a soft glove. Yosi Samra flats are addictive. Also, these are not for wearing outside much --they are really for indoor use only. A wonderful flat for the office, weddings, shopping indoors, short sunny jaunts. Rain will destroy them I think.

I ordered up a half size on this shoe and it was still too small. These shoes arrive folder in half. I'm concerned this may affect the shoe overall.

These leather flats from Yosi Samra have become a must for every closet. So comfortable that I forget they're even on! Gorgeous quality and color, haven't had a pair need to be replaced yet. Best part? These shoes fold in half and fit into the tidy drawstring bag that comes with them, making it so simple to throw them in bag for later. The navy is by far the prettiest color so far. Order one full size up - true for every person I know who owns these!

Ok, so these shoes are comfortable. They fit me true to size - it's like walking barefoot without worrying about stepping on something. BUT after two or three wearings, I noticed that the leather on the bottom touches the ground and is starting to wear. (All around the rubbery sole). This will be ugly pretty soon. These are pretty expensive though not like Tieks. They are cute and comfy from the top, I just don't want holes in them, so I will limit wearing them. Other than that, great shoes!

Cute shoes and look great on! Arrive folded in half inside a box. Typical ballet shoe in terms of not a lot of padding on bottom.

Love these!! So pretty and comfortable. Possibly the best flats ever. I'm a true 7.5 and the 8 fit perfectly.

Great shoes, feel like a ballerina in them. I bought the pink ones. They go with everything even a black outfit. Easy to put on, very comfortable. My favorite shoes!

I totally love these shoes! Thanks to whoever wrote that they were like ballet shoes and to order your normal size; they were so right. The leather is high quality and very soft and will stretch out to a slipper like fit as you wear them. I purchased the navy blue smooth leather in size 8, my normal size.

so comfortable...I read the other reviews and went and entire size larger than I usually wear (so I ordered a 10 vs. 9). I also have a narrow foot and they fit perfectly. They do seem to have a good amount of stretch to them for the folks that have wider feet. I was able to slip them right on and wear them an entire day. Exactly what I wanted!

Really comfortable shoes! I have tieks and I love them but there really expensive so I thought I would try these. When I got them and put them on I was so surprised they are so comfortable and have lots of cushion I love these more than my tieks I will definitely be buying more!!!

Simple and comfy ballet flat. Good for my walking in the city (couple miles daily). No break in time needed.I'm generally an 8 or 8.5 and ended up keeping these in size 9- order up.

Ordered these in black and had to size up. The first pair came no frills in a box and plastic bags. The second pair was beautifully packaged in a YS box and carry bag. Definitely prefer the better packaging. I love the shoes with the size up. Around the house and quit outings is fine. The sole however will not fair well in wet weather. I am ordering a pair today in the blush - it looks like a wonderful summer shoe. A little pricey, but quality is there.

I love, love, love these flats. I have 5 pair now. Got my first pair in a StitchFix box and then came to Zappos to get more. Better fitting and more comfortable than the Lucky Brand pairs I have.

Comparable to Tieks - not as comfortable but pretty close. Absolutely great purchase for the price.

I loved these shoes, so soft and I knew they'd be really comfortable, but I had to return them because they came up way too small. I am a size 7 (open toe shoes) and a 7.5 (closed toe and boots), but in ballet flats (especially ones that have elastic around the edge) I always order an 8 because I have long slim toes and, depending on the softness of the leather, they can press against the tips and cause a little bump. However, the size 8 in this shoe felt like a size 7 closed toe shoe would on me. I really want these ballet flats because they're so beautiful, so I will order them again in an 8.5 and a 9 and see if those sizes work out better for me.

I always thought ballet flats were a terrible look on most. Especially short peeps like me. But these not only look good but they feel so fabulous. I wish they were a bit sturdier on the bottom but otherwise I love them.

My first time trying this brand. They do feel at least one size too small. I can't imagine that, even when stretched out, they wouldn't manage to cause toe pain as tight as they are there. I have slightly narrow feet, but found these very narrow. I know they're supposed to fit snug and stretch to your foot, but these are very short and narrow in my usual size 8. The padding and flexibility are nice. They are almost like a cross between lightweight house slippers and just wearing socks, in the sense that there is very little structure to the shoe. I felt no real arch support, just some light padding in the sole. They do look like much ballet slippers, i.e. delicate, glove-like little soft leather slippers. I got the blush which is a really good nude for fair skin. I'm debating whether to try ordering the next size up to have as carry-in-your-bag travel shoes. But with so little support and structure, I'm not sure they'd get enough wear to justify the cost. Some people rave about the comfort of this brand, so I was hopeful. But I think I need more wiggle room and more support if I'm going to wear them for anything but house slippers.

Shoes are lovely, stylish and soft but I went a whole size larger and they were still too short and tight at the toes, and without arch support, they were a bit uncomfortable.
