I have 3 of the Leonie flats now- one leather, one suede, and one fabric. They are the best ballet flats I have found anywhere. The leather is buttery and soft, no blisters or pinching at all. The outer soles (the part that touches the ground) is leather, so I'm adding some stick-on traction there. I usually wear a US size 6.5 or 7, but surprisingly size 6 in these works for me. They're snug for sure, but the leather is so soft it doesn't feel tight or cramped. I wasn't sure about the Mary Jane strap at first, but they will slip off without them, and I got used to them. I hope more colors come out, especially in suede. Well worth the price.
