Description

The Foundation Flat - Size Chart Visual

An elegant, architectural ballet flat that feels as good as it looks. Designed for everyday wear, these slip-on shoes are cut, sewn and crafted by hand from supple LWG Gold-certified leather and their shape is defined by the natural curve of the foot. The directional squared toe and flattering vamp give the humble ballet flat a simple yet modern update.

Wearing white doesn’t have to be scary. By learning how to care for your white flats with our care guide, you can wear this stunning minimalist colour with confidence.

These artisanal flats are made in Italy from high-quality leathers. We have full transparency in our supply chain and pay 100% living wages to our workers

    Love these shoes

    These shoes are so comfortable they feel like slippers. They were quite tight to begin with but softened up after wearing a few times. I need them in another colour!

    Love love love

    My flats are the most comfortable shoes I own. I’m usually a 36.5 or 37. I bought the size 37 which were a little tight across the top for the first couple of wears but now they are perfect. They are buttery soft. I’m definitely considering another pair or another style.

    Fit like a glove!

    I’m always a little nervous buying shoes online but the size guide was so accurate in determining my true fit. I’m normally an EUR37.5 and the 38 fit perfectly. Now I want them in every colour. Such a beautifully crafted shoe and very comfortable.
