Sam Edelman Women's Felicia Ballet Flat

I live in South Korea and there were several things I was worried about when ordering them. Everything turned out to be great. They are a perfect fit to me (ordered 1/2 a size up) they are soft inside as well as the outer leather and come in a very luxurious package. Delivery was faster by 2 days ! Great value for money.

It took a bit to get the right size (seller sent wrong size, then the size I normally wear was too small) but I love these flats! Very comfortable. I wore on a long 15-hour day of travel and my feet did not hurt at all at the end of day. I normally wear size 8.5 but size 9 fit much better.

Out of nowhere this summer, I got a painful bunion. All of a sudden I cannot wear any of my shoes. I tried several pairs of flats and they all hurt. This pair has soft supple leather and do not put pressure on my bunion. AND - they look very nice! I looked at so many wide dress shoes or shoes for bunions and most are very ugly. These are not and in fact look very nice. Only two negatives - they run very small. I had to go a full size up. Second, the wide width toe box is perfect, but there is not much room in height, so at first it felt like my big toes were touching the tops of the shoes. It seems to have gotten better. I wore them to work right out of the box, no break-in time, no blisters. I am giving them 5 stars because after looking at tons of flats online and reading hundreds of reviews, I can wear these to work without pain and they look nice and I would have bought them even if I didn't have a foot issue.

I went back and forth for a while because I didn’t want to have weird looking feet (wide foot girly here) but these are SO FLATTERING! I walk over 10k steps a day and they’re PERFECT. They’re so comfortable and the color is so versatile, I love them!

The shoe is a classic Sam Edelman flat. I love the color and support it has. My only issue is it’s a bit smaller than my other shoes from this company but I’m sure it’ll stretch out

This is my 2nd pair of black Felicia flats. The first pair I bought on a whim from Bloomies because I had a coupon. Although these may cost an arm and a leg, I don't recommend settling for any other pair. I've bought flats from Aldo to Walmart to Target to Dolce Vita to others in Bloomingdales and Nordstrom and I can honestly say, nothing and i mean NOTHING fit like these. First of all, I've had foot surgery and foot issues for the past 2 years. These shoes, although flat, are so comfortable thanks to the padding inside and they're sooo soft that they mold to your toes and feet. My last pair I had for about 3 years before I destroyed them (I almost walked the sole off). I worked in NYC for about 1.5 years and they were my go-to shoes. I'd throw my heels in my purse and wore these during my commutes and walked about 3 miles a day in them and they were incredible. My only warning is when you get them, they're SNUG. They're so snug may seem too small, but with a little wear, they'll mold right to your foot. It took me a few months to finally cave and buy another pair but it was only after I tried about 11 different pairs and finally was like: nope, nothing beats my Felicias. I plan on buying more in different colors actually - they are just so perfect to wear with any outfit and they're amazing travel shoes. JUST BUY THEM ALREADY! Don't be cheap like me and miss out on your next favorite pair of shoes :)

Update: I originally gave 4 stars but have to knock it down to 1 because of the poor quality. After wearing this shoe exactly 3 times, all indoor except for short trips from the parking lot to the building, the leather on the toes of both shoes have ripped. I had them for 3 days. What a waste of money.Original review: I really love this shoe. It's a nice basic flat, but it has cushion in the bed of the shoe making them comfortable to wear. I havent walked a distance in them, so I dont know how they hold up quality-wise, but I own several pairs of Sam Edelman shoes and quality has never been an issue.That being said, I am consistently a size 8 in all shoes, including all the Sam Edelman shoes I own (a pair of boots, a pair of flats, and a pair of heels). But I did have to order these in a size 8.5. The 8 was too tight and I knew it would hurt if I kept wearing them. 8.5 is just right. I'd recommend ordering a half size up.

Arrived in the box. Just as described.
