Let me first start by saying that my expectations weren’t set high for these flats, and I am 100% happy and satisfied with my purchase - they exceeded my low expectations and surprised me!I fly internationally often and always take my shoes off (wearing compression socks) on 13+ hour flights. Sitting in economy / coach class or economy plus / comfort class (even with a little 3 inches more legroom it doesn’t make much of a difference) means I don’t have a lot of room to put my shoes back on, especially if the person in front of me has their seat reclined and I have a bag / carryon underneath the seat in front of me, too. When I need to go to the bathroom or walk around the cabin (to prevent from getting blood clots - if you’re reading this and you have a similar occurrence with me then I suggest always wearing compression socks on long-haul flights and walking around as much as you can) I obviously put my shoes back on (yuck if you don’t), and it’s always awkward with me trying to slip them on quickly, since the airplanes are close quarters to others and leave you NO personal space (okay, except for business/first class). These foldable flats are the perfect solution to my problem and while the material feels a little cheap/flimsy, the rubber sole on the bottom isn’t very thick/sturdy, they get the job done and are easy to slip on/off with minimal effort and fit comfortably like my favorite pair of flats. I am in between a size 8 and 8.5 and the Large size fits me perfectly all around. I have a bit wide feet and these flats don’t scrunch my toes together uncomfortably or cut off my circulation. They are lightweight and I wouldn’t wear them outside, but my purpose for wearing them while flying is perfectly satisfied and achieved. The back part of the flat that is scrunched doesn’t rub my ankles or back of my feet in any way. These flats stay on my feet despite being lightweight. They sort of form / mold to my feet perfectly. I feel like I’m not even wearing them. The inner sole is a soft brushed fabric and I wish it were a bit thicker but then again, these aren’t meant to be your everyday walking flats. They are meant to be worn for short periods of time and not out in the elements. Looking at them from afar, you can’t really tell (at least not for me) that they are cheap-y and slipper-like, they look like normal flats. I like that they don’t look like slippers but just ballet/ballerina flats.I really love the color and will be purchasing a few more pairs in other colors. The drawstring pouch that they can be stored in once they are folded is the same material as the flats (so again, not the best quality) but it is the perfect size to carry with you / pack along and it isn’t bulky nor does it take up much space. Perfect for a carryon!I also will be packing a pair of these in black color just in case my luggage gets lost (yes, I check my bag, I am an overpacker) and I don’t have access to my regular flats. These would suffice in a last-minute emergency situation like that.You get what you pay for. For this price point, it’s a steal and great buy. Go ahead and add them to your cart.
