Detailed Review
Comfort: The Speakup Ballet Flat is designed for all-day wear, but some users have noted that there isn't much arch support. This may require additional insoles if you plan on being on your feet for long periods. However, the soft synthetic material does conform comfortably to your foot.
Style: With its almond toe and elegant lines, this flat easily transitions from day to night. Pair it with jeans for a casual look or dress it up with a skirt. Its neutral coloring allows for easy coordination with most outfits.
Fit: Sizing tends to be true to size, but it’s advisable to try them on, as fit can vary slightly based on foot shape. The slip-on feature ensures a snug fit without the fuss of buckles or laces.
Durability: Given the synthetic materials used, maintenance is relatively easy, though some users report that extensive wear might lead to quicker degradation compared to leather alternatives.

Am enjoying these flats. They are sturdy, stylish and comfortable. Fit true to size.
Gorgeous pair of flats. A bit of a pinch at the area by the base of the small toes.
These shoes are made from high quality materials, and they fit perfectly when I first put them on. So I took them on a trip. After the first hour I wore them, they stretched out so badly the slipped off my foot while I was crossing a street and I almost fell in the intersection. Buy carefully
Cute, cute, cute! They are comfortable right out of the box for me. I like the style and am going to see what other colors they come in. I wish they weren't as pricey as they are but I've had a hard time finding a stylish flat that I like. I am consistently a size nine and these fit well. I'm usually average width and they seem possibly a little wide but not bad. The only thing I'd change is that I wish they had more cushioning or arch support-- they are truly flat flats on the inside as well. Very cute and I wear them to the office all day, but probably wouldn't want to walk around the mall for hours in them.Update-- I ordered the natural ones and they just arrived. They are the perfect nude/stone/ivory color. In my experience it's hard to find this color-- it's either too tan or has a pink or yellow undertone. They have a nice pointy toe without looking aggressively pointy, if that makes sense. They fit like my previous (black) ones do and I expect to get a lot of use out of them!
So hard to find what used to called a basic flat. Either they’re flimsy, ugly, or outrageously priced. This is a good basic shoe with shape, support, and a tapered toe. They are true to size and comfortable.
For some reason I got the wrong shoe.This is such a beautiful shoe but the quality is awful, I’m returning it.They run big!!!
Size is a good fit. Shoe is comfortable and nice looking.
Good shoe but color was off when received. Its possible it could have been purchaser error but I had to return as it was not the color I was looking for.
