I’ve been into ballet sneakers for years, but I’m so glad they are finally trending because it means more brands are making them. These are amazing. One of the things I love about ballet sneakers is how they are deconstructed, and these are as deconstructed as it gets. I was surprised at the quality of the leather weaves. It’s actually super supple. This makes sense given the price point. Before having these in hand, I couldn’t understand why they were so expensive, but after seeing them in person, I get it. I love that these are in the classic colorway as well. It matches so many things. I’m hoping that these continue to have more colorways released, that the quality stays the same. I would suggest sizing down, especially if you are new to deconstructed fits or ballet flats. These fit a half size smaller than my sambas. Adidas in general is typically smaller than most other shoes for me as well. I tend to wear an 8.5 or 8/ uk 6- in all other brands. In these I grabbed a 7 and a 7.5, and kept the 7.

no arch support so you should buy insoles to help with comfort.
