Hush Puppies Women's Chaste Ballet Flat

Comment

What I LIKE/LOVE About This Product: 1. The colorful pattern because they can literally be paired with any outfit, any color, any style. 2. Comfort like no other ballet flat I own, besides one pair; but the price difference makes me realize those other shoes arent worth the sticker price., These are definitely worth $50. What I DISLIKE About These Shoes: 1. That it took 1-2 days to break in. They rubbed the backs of my heels something fierce. However, I learned a new trick to avoiding this painful break-in period: Bend the flats back and forth, twist and turn them side to side, really pulling backwards on the heel. Double up band-aids for your ankles, and wear them about 5-6 hours that first day. After that, the shoes stopped rubbing my ankles and now I wouldnt return them if you paid me to. Compared to Similar Products: 1. These flats are extremely similar to Tieks, almost in every way, with one exception: price. After wearing these flats for several weeks now, compared to the Tieks I wore for weeks before, I could kick myself for spending $150 more on the other flats when these are just as pretty, and just as comfy. Save your money and by 4 pairs of these for the price of one pair of the other brand.

I have tried SO MANY top brands in flats and always have some problem. I started going only for leather (no pleather at all) b/c I had so many discomfort issues. Yet I still had issues. TAHARI flats made my feet sweat, so I would take them half off and wear them as slippers most of the day. Same thing with LUCKY brand. BLOW FISH absorbs smells because the insoles are fabric, so once the insides got gross I was disgusted with them, washed them once, and just ended up donating them. BCBG had a plastic-like insole and made my feet sweat, AND blistered up my pinky toes and pinched the back of my heel too tigh. BUT HUSH PUPPIES ARE PERFECT. My feet dont sweat b/c the inside is a natural- a breathable suede material. And theyre cushioned. The band isnt too tight and is a soft-enough material that it doesnt pinch the backs of heels. The insides are a soft leather so my toes dont get blisters. AT LAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These are literally now the only pair of flats I own that I can wear all day long and not have to take them off. LOVE IT Also sizing is just fine. I wear 7- 7.5 and ordered a 7.5 which fit just fine ONE THING- the black dye has been coming off a little on my heels

I ordered two different colors and they were pretty different products. The sole, footbeds, and exterior are different between the two. In the photo, you can see the difference between the footbeds. The teal shoes have a soft, flexible, stretchy, suede exterior. I love the exterior, but the footbed is flat, slippery, and feels low quality. My feet slip all over the place when I walk. The cognac is much more high quality, but the exterior is too hard and didnt fit me. The footbed is cushy and feels lovely. It doesnt feel like the cognac will mold at all to my foot, otherwise I would keep this shoe. Sadly, Ill be returning both of these.

Finally some flats for my Flintstone feet. So comfortable, awesome price point compared to the "blue bottom" brand and finally a wide so I dont have to squeeze into a pair of flats to break them in. These were super comfortable right out of the box. I have 2 pair and plan on purchasing more.

Purchased these and the butterfly suede based upon my love for a pair of chaste flats purchased 2 years ago in the olive color. THESE ARE SIGNIFICANTLY CHEAPER IN THEIR CONSTRUCTION. The more comfortable and better made pairs are finished in the inside with the lining being stitched to the sole as opposed to leather just glued to to bottom. Another clue.... the area under the arch consists of smooth leather often in a different color or suede versus smooth leather. The glued down versions are awful and Hush Puppies should be ashamed.
