This shoe is a high quality product of the Capezio Ballet Shoe, manufactured in Vietnam from Leather (upper) and Suede (sewn sole as shown).  Contrary to other reviews, the ONLY man-made fabric/material is the inner lining, thread, strap and bow.  These are genuine leather shoes.

BEWARE:  Sizing is WAY off. See photos for comparison to size 3 street shoe for reality.

They come packaged in tissue paper and a small compact end flap box (not a "shoe box"), suitable for wrapping.

Pros -
-Excellent quality for the identical shoe costing $30+ at local outlets
-Leather+Suede with Fabric man-made breathable lining.

Cons -
Sizing is the only issue here.  Consider fitting your Ballerina at a local store, and then ordering these shoes here, or at worst, adding 2 sizes to the "street shoe" size shown.

All in all the shoes are a great buy at the sub $25 price range, and smell like Ferrari's (Leather) out of the box.
