Review #1
So comfortable
The more I wear this shoe, the more I want to wear it. It is light but supports the arch like a much heavier shoe. It looks good with both pants and dresses or skirts.

Review #2
Weird sizing, but structurally comfy
A number of reviews here and on other sites say that these shoes run half a size small. I wear a 5.5, ordered the 6 because the 5.5 wasn't available in the color I wanted anyway, and they were a tad long but still tight across the top. I had originally purchased them for my mom, who wears the same size I do, but considered keeping them for myself.

They are even cuter than they look in the pictures, and the sole is much thicker than other flats I own. I'm not sure that I'd want to traipse all over Europe in them (as she was planning to do), but I imagine walking for an hour or two would be very comfortable.

If I were going to get a pair for myself, I'd want to try them in the 5.5 -- while the elastic across the top held my foot in place pretty securely, I'd worry that I'd start to slide forward a little during extended walking, especially as I didn't wear them long enough to know how much the elastic would stretch out. I think the front half of my foot is a normal width for my size (the back half is pretty narrow), and I do think the elastic may very well have ended up being too tight in the 5.5.

This is probably not the shoe for someone with a wide foot, but if you have a narrow or flatter foot relative to the length, it might be the perfect totally adorable and very versatile flat.

Look great and comfortable
I love these shoes, but not so much that I'll pay full price for them, as they do get scuffed up just a bit pretty quickly if you wear them as much as I do in warmer weather, so Amazon is a great place to get them.

They are super comfortable, and extremely light weight--it's almost like not having a shoe one. I think this particular strap design is much nicer than most I've seen, and looks stylish casually dressed up and dressed down. And because there's a strap, you can run in them if necessary (to catch the bus, etc), as they have a solid sole. Also great for walking in.

Buying Second Pair
I originally bought these same shoes at Nordstrom's. I wore them so much that I finally wore them out, well I wore them without socks too much which made them smell. You should know that there is no problem with the shoes, they didn't fall apart - I could probably have just cleaned them to restore them and remove the odor.

Almost every time I wore them, women asked me where I got them. They are so cute and so comfortable. It's so rare to find shoes that feel this good when you are wearing them. Even Nike, New Balance, and Adidas workout shoes aren't as comfortable. They are great for work - especially in walking cities like DC.

Like I said, I wore them out, so I researched the company and found them on Amazon. This is a great price for these shoes too. I can't wait for my replacements to arrive. This is honestly the first time I've sought out the same brand and shoes for replacements. If they maintain product quality like these, Palladium has a life long customer.

Adorable!
Just got these in gray and they are even cuter in person. I thought they felt a little big when I first put them on and I wasn't sure how I felt about the part that sticks up in the back, but they turned out to be perfect. The soles are fairly thin as with most flats but I wore them all day teaching and they were totally comfortable. I've already had lots of compliments.
