I'm impressed...
These just arrived today. I own a pair of Tieks, but have been wanting another pair. I also didn't want to pay what I did for another pair. While these are NOT Tieks, I do like them. And for the price I paid for these, I can buy several pairs and not feel guilty. I can see a difference in the stitching. On the plus side, the toe area seems to be reinforced, so the outline of my big toe does not show through. That was one thing that really bothered me with my Tieks. These are also soft and comfortable right out of the box. I had high hopes but low expectations when I bought these, and I'm so glad I decided to try them. I wear size 8 in almost every shoe, and ordered my usual size in these. I think they are true to size. I will more than likely purchase more colors.

Honest Review after 1 month of daily wear
I bought these shoes a month ago and have been wearing them since I bought them, I wanted to wait on writing a review so I could give honest and accurate feedback.PROSVery comfortable and buttery softDurable - Holding up extremely wellNo scuffs or fading in leatherEasy to surface cleanNo blistersAffordableCONSHave to use an insole if additional cushioning is needed. (Not so much a con as many shoes require an additional insole)I bought these shoes because I wanted Tieks, however being a stay-at-home mom, Tieks are not currently in my price range. I did lots of Googling to find shoes that are similar to Tieks and I watched lots of YouTube reviews on similar shoes. When I was about to buy one of those other brands, these popped up as a suggestion on Amazon. I read the great reviews and decided for the price they were worth trying. I am so thankful that I found these shoes! I have always worn a 9.5, but after three kids my feet have flattened out a little bit and I am somewhere between a 9.5 and a 10. I went ahead and ordered a pair of black ballet flats in a size 10 and I'm very glad I did.They are perfect, they don't feel too big, they aren't flopping off and they aren't too tight, just right. There is plenty of room in the toe area which I'm happy about, often times ballet flats seem tighter in the toe area. No ouchy toes for me.Also with flats I often run into sore heels as the shoe will rub on the back of my heel creating a blister. That hasn't happened at all with these! The elastic is on the sides instead of the heel and the toe, so no pulling or causing blisters.They are buttery soft and I am comfortable wearing them when I am relaxing around the house, I usually kick off my shoes but these are so cozy.They do not hurt my feet when I walk with them, although they do not have much cushioning or support in the sole (I'd compare them to the support of a flip flop), they are comfortable and do the job. I will be wearing these while walking around Disney because they are so comfortable, so for that week I plan to use inserts for a little more cushioning and they should fit in the shoe very well.The leather is an amazing quality, lambskin if I'm correct, and it is holding up amazingly well. I run all around in these shoes and after a month of wear they have no scuffs.They're also very easy to surface clean if they get anything yucky on them.Some people have complained about the sole detaching, I have not had this happen so I'm including pictures. If that were to happen I don't think that it wouldn't be anything that a little E6000 glue couldn't fix. I plan to buy several colors, these are now my go to flat! LOVE THEM!! 100% recommend!

Don’t necessarily size up
I’m going to keep ordering these until I get the size right. I ordered up based on many reviews (a 10 instead of my usual size 9) and the shoes are massive. Totally unwearable. They fit like I would imagine a typical 10 fits. Perhaps the difference in size comes when you are starting much lower on the size range, but I can say for sure I would never be able to wear these shoes around town as is. I am returning and will instead try both a size 9 and a 9.5 to compare. This is the “peach” color, and it is a deep, bold, true red. For the modest price point, I am initially happy with the shoe quality and appearance. The stitching could be a little more even, but that’s what you get when you’re not buying a pair of $80+ flats. The toe box is nice and wide, which I appreciate. I would liken the overall width and shape to Tieks or the Lucky Brand Emmie flat. I’m hoping with the correct size, these will become a great staple in my shoe collection!

These are comfortable and very cute
I am a fan. I was going to try the tieks flats but decided to buy a cheaper alternative first. These are comfortable and very cute. I walked in them for a couple of hours and there is no blisters or anything. Seems to be of decent quality. If you are between sizes, I suggest going up 1/2 to 1 size (depending on whether you have wide or narrow feet).

Super comfortable and nice looking shoes!
I originally bought this for the unique color and thought for the price I would give it a try. When I tried them on they were so comfortable and were comparable to my Tieks flat shoes in the way they looked and fit but for a lot less price. I wore them all day without any issues. Needless, to say I ordered another pair in black since I wear flats all the time to work. If you want shoes that look nice and are super comfortable, I would recommend these shoes. I usually wear a size 71/2 or 8 and ordered the size 8 which fit perfect.

The leather is buttery soft
I love my shoes! They feel so soft and comfy! The leather is buttery soft so there is no need to break them in at all. The mint green color is perfect for Spring and Summer. And to top it all off, they arrived exactly as stated by the seller. I will be ordering again in different colors! Thanks so much!

Great product
Size is about right, but if you need more comfortable, buy half size big. The leather quality is good. Very nice feeling. Great walking shoes.

Definitely Not a Bright White...
I ordered these shoes in white, and was quite disappointed to discover that they are definitely not a bright white like the picture portrayed. They are more of a cream color. The photo is very misleading. Be aware of this if you're ordering these shoes in white. The lambskin is very soft and they do not hurt my heels like some of the other brands that I have tried. They do run quite small in size. I usually wear an 8 1/2 in ballet flats, but after reading other reviews, I decided to order a size 9 in the Xielongs. Even after ordering these shoes a half size larger, they are still a little tight. I wish now that I would have gotten a size 9 1/2. I hope that they will stretch a little during the break in phase. All in all, I think these will be a nice pair of flats for the money.
