I purchased these ballet flats because I wanted at least one "good" pair. I always trust Lucky Brand to deliver well made clothing, and now I know they also deliver well made shoes! The only complaint I would have is that they don't "breathe" well, so wear thin socks or you run the risk of stinky shoes. I Love the mini sole on the bottom, too. It gives a touch more support to the shoe, which others don't have. Very well made & cute, too! Run true to size.
