“I purchased the Blush Leather Florican and have been really pleased. I have narrow feet with bunions. The leather is soft and painlessly accommodated my bunions and feet. The straps provide secure grip for my narrow feet and ankles (which tend to slide out of ballet/ court shoes). I also have moderate pronation and have worn them all day without any discomfort. They have soft inner lining at the heels which also makes them a pleasure to wear. They are nice light colour and attractive with elegant narrow straps.”
“I've been wearing these in for a couple weeks now, and not only is the heel taking ages to soften but the left shoe won't stop squeaking! I've tried it with and without my orthotics and changing the tightness of the straps but nothing seems to help. Driving me nuts!”
Oh no, we're so sorry to hear!
We are aware of this, due to the supportive steel shank located within the sole, air bubbles occasionally arise causing the squeak. However, we have a solution. Please contact the store on (03) 9509 5771, let's get this sorted. :)
“I am 35 and suffered a severe break to my foot about three years ago and since then I have had to wear orthotics to prevent a rebreak. Since then I have also been tirelessly searching for a pair/brand of shoe that didn't make me feel like I was an 80-year old woman. These shoes are attractive, comfortable, support my feet evenly and best of all completely hide my orthotics. I am so pleased I invested in them as they are a lot more money than I'd normally spend but I'm happy to have done so. I'll be getting a pair in the pink colour as well. Only thing to note is that being based in the U.K. meant I had to pay £100 in fees to get them through the customs stuff. That's the only negative point. Nothing negative about the shoes themselves.”
“I have worn these shoes twice, and although satisfied with the comfort, I am disappointed with quality. The blush colour has scraped off the shoe on the sides and toe, and the colour does not match the leather construction underneath. For $229 shoes I am not satisfied.”
“I'd been recommended by my podiatrist to get Bared shoes as they were stylish and not chunky yet supportive and comfy. I was skeptical with parting with so much money for ONE pair of shoes! I went all out and got a pair of the blush florican flat. OMG soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo supportive, comfortable and stylish. I was worried that the pointed toe would be painful but NO WAY! I also have nortoriously narrow and super bony feet but these shoes were so comfy and supportive for them. IN love!!!”
“These are truly the best orthotic friendly shoes I've ever worn. I have narrow feet, so the straps are wonderful for ensuring a snug fit so that my orthotics are fitted perfectly. Best of all - they're gorgeous!”
“I have very wide feet and not the slimmest of ankles and these are great. I was able to adjust the straps to suit my feet and while the ankle strap is on the last hole, they fit really well, no rubbing and blisters and have been able to walk all day in them without any irritation - rare for me. They look great, a little edgier than your basic ballet flat. Just hope they consider making them in red!”
