User Reviews
I have many pairs of Lucky Brand ballet flats. This is my second pair of pewter; I literally wore the other pair out. The go with EVERYTHING! I hope they never quit making them.
Loved this shoe so much that I bought a second pair for when the first pair wears out. These are my go to shoes - perfect for traveling, shopping, etc. I usually don't like shoes with elastic but these discretely add gentle shaping and fit. The color is "pewter" but its more like a bronze or golden taupe. It's actually a very neutral color. They are flats but they are fairly well cushioned inside. They are roomy enough to slip in a pair of arch support innersoles without crowding your feet which makes them so easy to wear all day long.
These are the most comfortable flats I have ever worn. I am a true size 7 and the size 7 fits. That being said, when I first put them on right out of the box, one of the shoes dug into my heel really bad. I would not have been able to wear them that way. I put heel cushions into them and now they are perfect. I absolutely love them. There isn't much arch support but I can wear them for hours without my feet hurting and there is a decent cushion to the inner sole. I will be getting more colors of these for sure. The pewter color is extremely versatile and goes with everything!
These shoes are cute but definitely a size and a half smaller. An 11 should feel good. Nope.
Love these shoes. They can be dressed up or down and are actually comfortable. This is amazing to me as I am incredibly picky on shoes being comfortable as well as stylish (an impossible combination) and I also have a narrow heel/wider toe box which makes shoe buying a tortuous affair. These flats fit my foot well and look pretty with most outfits, and while there isn't much arch support they are still very comfortable. They were true to size for me.
I now have 3 or maybe 4 pair of these ballet flats. One is fabric leopard print, one is suede, and one is leather. All are gorgeous. Yummy comfy. Would recommend that you go up half a size. I normally wear a 6 1/2 and I bought these in a 7 M. The wear beautifully. I've had the first pair for about 3 years and wear them all the time.
So I normally wear a size 7.5-8.5 depending on the shoe (sneaker, heel, flat, boot, all seem to fit differently). I do know you need to size up in flats. So I found these in a store in an 8.5 and they were ridiculously small. So I tried the 9, STILL too small. They didn't have anything larger than a 9 in store, so I ordered it on Amazon because their sizing selection was MUCH better than the store. So they arrived, and much to my surprise, weren't any bigger than the 8.5 or 9 I tried on previously. They were still SO small in length. The width was normal for flats and wasn't an issue, but these run so very small, it's laughable, so I returned them. I'd venture to guess I'd need a 10, perhaps a 10.5, but I've since found another brand of flats that fit much more true to size.
I love Lucky Brand, but these fell short of their quality. Shoe fits more loosely in the back than in the front. I almost sent them back, but felt like a size smaller would have been too tight in the toe box. They seem very casual and almost too sloppy of a fit for casual work dressing.
