Reviewers suggest going up a half size for the perfect fit.
Promising review: "After reading reviews, I went up a half size, which was a great idea because they fit perfectly! My foot tends to be a little on the wide side in the front, but not wide enough to actually purchase wide shoes. They are extremely comfortable and look great. I am very happy with my purchase." —Lisa

Promising review: "These are so comfortable. I got them in a size 7 but had to exchange them for a 7.5 because they run a little small. I wore them to Coachella and they didn't hurt my feet at all, are super easy to clean, and I got tons of compliments! Love love love." —Gabs1995
Get them from Nordstrom for $49.95 (originally $89.95, available in sizes 6–10).
Promising review: "Oh my god. If your favorite slippers came in a high heel version, it would be these. These shoes are like CLOUDS. The upper is soft and very flexible, and the sole is padded. No break-in period. And are blisters even possible in these? I think not." —Krista

Promising review: "I wore these as my wedding shoes! I love how they buckle, it's like a clasp, but it still has the traditional look over a buckle. I was able to dance in these. We did county swing dance for our first dance, and I was even able to do a backflip in these. I have had these shoes for a year now, and I wear them almost every day! They have held up really well, they've gotten a little scuffed up, and they're starting to show some wear and tear, but they still have a lot more life in them." —Allyson Brackett

Promising review: "I am a stickler for wearing comfortable shoes — if anything is off, I won't wear them. These are great! I wore them to a wedding and walked and danced all day and night. They felt like slippers. I get tons of compliments on them, and they dress up a casual outfit in the best way." —Rosemary B.

Promising review: "I got the shoes in black and they are beautiful, fit true to size, and are very comfortable. I wore them for about five hours and walked a lot, and they were comfy. They are roomy in the toe area so they are very comfortably for pointy toes. Do not size up." —Crazyboutbags

Promising review: "I have big feet (size 11) and have the hardest time finding comfortable, nice looking closed-toed shoes. These are perfection! The color is bold but meshes well with almost everything I own. The cut is comfortable and they broke into my feet shape right away. Love these shoes!" —MHJones

Promising review: "Love love love this purchase! I got the black suede boots. Fit is true to size. I’m 5’7 and the boots come up about 2 or 3 inches above my knee. Gave them a test run on a night out, and to my surprise they were so comfortable I had no problems at all wearing them all night even with good amount of walking and dancing. Well-made and absolutely worth the money spent! I will be ordering more pairs in different colors!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I love these shoes. I can never find flats that don't rub my heel. Recently I've developed a bone spur on the joint of my right big toe, so most flats also hurt in that area as well. Not these shoes. They are super comfortable. No rubbing or chafing. I can walk in them for hours." —Sparkletastic

Promising review: "Love them! Very comfortable — like airport-long-travel comfortable. I do not usually wear flats, even for traveling long distance, but I will now. They do have a smell when you first get them, but a little air will work. True to size." —JND

Comfortable right out of the box without a break in period." —MFiske

Promising review: "These are so comfy. I almost want to just leave them on walking around my apartment because they feel so good. They’re also made with a beautiful, supple leather. I got the honey color — they’re nice pop without being too statement-y." —natnatchi

Fitflop shoes feature an anatomically contoured footbed as well as enhanced cushioning that minimizes impact.
Promising review: "I bought two colors of the flats and found them perfectly ready-to-wear right out of the box. No blisters or pinching with size 7 for my usual 7.5 feet. I have worn FitFlop sandals for years and am thrilled to find ballet flats with the same comfort and quality. A teacher, I wore the first pair a full day of school without having to tear them off as soon as I got home." —Shoe Teacher

Promising review: "I was not expecting to love these shoes as much as I do. I expected them to be cute — and they are — but they are also so comfortable. I wore them to a wedding and was in them for many many hours and my feet didn't hurt even a little bit. Definitely the most comfortable heels I've ever worn." —Emily Czajowski

Promising review: "As a flight attendant, I'm often on my feet for eight hours or more per day. I have to wear heels with my uniform, but I change into these once I'm on the plane. They're great! They don't take up too much space in my bag, and the sole is cushioned a little so I don't feel my feet hitting the ground too hard. I used to spend tons of money on more expensive brands, but I honestly went through them too fast. These are cost-effective and comfortable. Very happy with them and I plan to buy back-ups." —Mars Leigh
Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes 5–13, including wide sizes, and eight colors).
Promising review: "I have a VERY hard time finding flats that don't destroy my feet, and the first time I put these on I was amazed at how nicely they fit! These flats did not rub or cause blisters AT ALL. They have a little cushion of support in the sole, which my mid-arch appreciates. My only concern is how long it'll last before these flats stretch out and start slipping off my heels, but I always have that issue. Would recommend, would buy in other colors." —Hannah Schlueter
Get them from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes 6–10 and six colors).
Promising review: "These boots are sooooooo comfortable! It's hard to find heeled booties that I can walk in all day and night in. The boots are perfect for someone with wide feet (like myself, size C/D width). They don't look cheap, but don't look extremely expensive either. I didn't need to break them in or anything before wearing them for a long period of time. The size 7 fit perfectly for anyone that is a true 7 with enough room to wear thicker socks or thinner depending on your preference! Love these booties so much. They're just in time for fall and winter!" —Sharon Adickes

Promising review: "Wow! These shoes are simply spectacular. I first got a taste for how gorgeous these shoes looked and how comfortable they felt when I purchased them in the nude color. If you are on the fence about getting yourself a pair, don't be! These shoes are truly one of my all time favorite dance shoes! True to size, very well cushioned, and so beautiful. Great price for the quality!" —Cyn

Promising review: "I have wide feet in the toe area with a bunion. This shoe is so cute. No discomfort at all. I usually wear a little-hidden footy sock but with these shoes, it isn't necessary. I have already got a second pair on order. I plan to wear these during all seasons." —JLOVEALL
