Extremely Impressed - beautiful, and comfortable! Amazing considering the price!

I was obsessed with the Chloe ballet flats that cost about 400.00 - I was so obsessed that I spent hours searching online for a knock off pair that didn't look like a knock off - there are so many out there, but they all had something I didn't like about them - the toes on some were not square (which is imperative if you want the "toe shoe" effect"), some had heels that were just to obvious..(these do have heels - & they look big, but they are NOT) - I saw the black pair & thought , "well , I need black flats, so I'll try them out" - when I received them, I was absolutely thrilled..I put them on immediately & wore them around the house all night - they were so authentic looking (I was a ballet dancer for 14 years), and,best of all,they were amazingly comfortable! I couldn't believe it! So I went right back to my computer and looked for them in pink ( the traditional "ballet pink"). Zero Joy. Then I realized that this brand had a color called "natural" - I thought , " well, I love the other ones. So having a pair that are skin tone ( I have very light skin) would be great for times I'm not wearing black"Then they arrived ,and to my amazement, they were actually the ballet pink I had been searching for!! Not only that, but the crisscross elastic was made of a satin elastic!! So pretty & again , so comfortable!! And I have to say, I have become a walking advertisement for these shoes ..people stop me and ask me all the time where I got them..I've even had people offer to buy them from me right then & there! But there's no way I'd part with them..I just direct them here & when I tell them the price they can't believe it! In conclusion , I lucked out like crazy & if you have a thing for those Chloe flats, you won't be disappointed , believe me.
Love these shoes!

Bought a size 9.5 and it fits perfectly. The leather is very soft and comfortable. The front of the shoe by the toes is a little shallow (aka. expect toe cleavage) but if you're fine with that, I'd definitely order these! They give your outfit a great ballerina vintage look.
Buy real ones at Macy's instead for same price.

I bought these shoes because I bought a different color from Macy's and loves them. I actually bought the pinkish ones at the begining of the summer but haven't worn them very much. The few times I did, they made the back of my heel bleed but I didnt think much of it and figured they needed to be worn in. I've come to realize that these shoes are not the same leather material as the original ones I bought from Macy's. They are not soft, they are stiff. I thought the quality just might have gone down but I'm at Macy's today and they have the same pair in the same color and it is the soft leather like the my old pair. The price is $69.00, just about the same as the price here. Buy them in the stores. I can't imagine how they can be fake but I'm telling you, they are definitely not the same shoes.
The best, TRUE ballet flats in existence!

Ditto 100% what Amazon customer, April 4, 2015 said practically word for word. Chloe started my obsession, Jessica Simpson saved me and my wallet. These shoes are fabulous and I have worn them to death. Before I completely kill these ones dead, I came back and ordered 3 more black pair, another black pair as a gift for a friend of mine who admired mine, and one natural pair, and one gunmetal pair - and 7 of these shoes were STILL less expensive than one pair of Cloe flats!!! JESSICA, you ROCK! I have always loved Jessica's shoe and have several different varieties from flats to boots to stilettos. They ALL prove to be comfortable, fit right, enduring, and gorgeous. But, as the other reviewer mentioned, these have the nice square toes so similar to "pointe shoes" (which is a big deal for us retired dancers) which makes them irresistible to us. I could never figure out why they were called "ballet" flats when they looked NOTHING like ballet anything. Then I saw Chloe's and was, like, YES!!! Then I saw the price and was, like, oh, crap, no, no, no. I held out in the hope that they would go on sale but they never did. Then I happened upon Jessica's and literally jumped for joy. I have a very high arch, so I put my custom made arch supports in them and I feel like I'm walking in the clouds. I can walk all day and night and nary a shin splint in sight. Jess, you're my hero, I love ALL your shoes and you are so, so much smarter than other shoe designers. Honey, Louboutin has NOTHING on you!!!
My favorite pair of shoes

I am OBSESSED with these shoes, but the ONLY problem was that they arrived with a tiny puncture in the front. I would've exchanged them, but Amazon was out of my size, so I just dealt with it. These shoes are so adorable and I've been looking forward to finally ordering them since department stores don't seem to carry the half sizes. I am always a 7.5 in flats, and these shoes fit perfectly. They are very comfortable and even when they were brand new, they didn't rub or squeeze at all. Currently, I own 3 pairs of these ballet-type shoes: 2 from Kenneth Cole and these Jessica Simpsons. The Jessica Simpson flats are much better because of the shape as well as the comfort-level. I really like the square toe and love the satin straps as well as the nude color, they really look like real ballet flats, which is what I was looking for. My mother-in-law has much darker skin than me and they look even better on her, they are so flattering to any skin tone. I've received many compliments on these shoes and probably will order them in more colors in the future!

Love the look, love the style, people comment on them. And very comfortable. Only hang up is the material. Synthetic materials sometimes start to hold odour quickly, regardless of clean feet.

This is my fourth pair of these shoes - I may well go into mourning when they're discontinued, even though import duty makes them rather expensive. The square toe makes them look more like pointe shoes than the Chloe design.

Delivery on time. Description was correct leather upper but consist of cow hair fur and man made lining in the Amazon website. However, since it's made with man made lining I'm not sure how well they will wear out first time buying JS shoes. The price was good $47ish I wouldn't pay more. The foot bed was just right around my size 6 feet and I'm on a medium/regular wide category. Definitely just right no room at the toe so, if you like having a bit more room I would recommend going 1/2 bigger since it wouldn't be so bad cuz the satin elastic strap will hold your ankle in place. The colour is exactly how it looks on the sample image. It's very stylish. Comfortable, but draw back is that the strap is made of satin elastic, and definitely not recommended when it is wet out again I don't know how long this will last but definitely a fun and nice purchase.

Beautiful flats that remind me of my pointe ballet shoes! I'm ordering the silver after wearing the black Alaska for a year!! They last! Very well made and very pretty and feminine...a bit narrow so go a half size up!! Obsessed with these shoes I'm going to get them in every color!:)))

These are so cute but they did give me blisters on the back of my heals. Iâm not giving up though and will try to âbreak them inâ. I have another pair by Anne Klein that are super comfy but I liked the square toe on these.

Super comfy. Padded sole. Flexible leather. Plus the elastic straps make it secure but still comfortable.

Love my ballet flats! I'm size 7 and ordered an half inch more but fits just fine. Next time I'll order on my real size which is 7 cause I thought it won't fit true to size. But overall, I like it! Also, I received it in just a few days. Fast transaction!
