I am in love with this particular style (maria sharapova)!!! It is super comfortable and no compromise on fashion!!! I've had 4 pairs over the past 2 years, each a dif color/design!! Often, very comfortable shoes are matronly looking, yet these have class and are totally fashion forward...And, since i've discovered this shoe, I pray they continue making them!!! I have always found them to be true to size and never had to order bigger... No need to think twice on purchasing them; go for it with no reservations!!! You'll fall in love!!!

Too Small and Wearing Out

These run very small. I normally wear an 8.5 but these in 8.5 are so small! I didn't want to pay the return and hassle with it so I've kept them, thinking they were leather and most likely break in and form to my foot. Nope. Instead they kill my big toe, the part under the heal, on the inside is wearing through, the leather on the outside back of the heal is showing major wear, most likely from driving. These are super cute shoes though. I wear mine, even being too small, about 4-5 days a week to work. I would order them again, in a size bigger, probably not even half a size bigger but a full size. I would like to see if the wearing out is due to me wearing them too small or if they truly just aren't made to last, to be durable, or to be worn 4-5 days a week. We will see when I order my next pair.
So gist is, order bigger....watch for the inside to wear out and scuffing of the leather on the back of the heal.

I think these run true to size. I wear a size 6 and always get a 6 in cole haan. Some of my bacaras were a bit tight in heel but with wear fit better. It might have something to do with if shoe is suede, leather calf, or patent leather. But none the less super comfy shoe. I own 8 of these ballets!

I first bought a pair in my standard size (8) and it was too small. I then ordered a second pair a half size larger (8.5) and the back still scrapes my heel. Additionally, the quality of the sole is poor - it wears down within 1-2 uses. I wouldn't recommend these shoes - for the price you can get something more comfortable and higher quality.

The shoe is comfortable, cute and very versatile.
I, along with all of my friends who own this shoe, found it necessary to order it in a one half size larger than our normal Cole Haan size. The toe cap is a bit tight.
It would have been nice to have this information prior to purchase to eliminate the hassle of return. Not to mention having to WAIT for the shoe and wear it!

I got these to wear for my wedding reception and they did not disappoint! They are incredibly comfortable and the sueded leather around the top of the shoe adds an extra level of comfort. I also wore them during our travels through the airport for our honeymoon and my feet never once were sore. Very comfy - you won't go wrong! I will buy more pairs in the future!

My first pair was in the maple sugar color and the minute I slipped my feet into them they fit like a glove. I have bunions on both feet (the right being bigger) and have to be make sure that leather flats are stretchy enough. I'm also weary of elastic backed shoes but this pair did not pinch my heel like others do.
I agree about having rubber soles placed on them as sometimes one does the "slip & slide" dance while walking around.
I bought the cobalt patent color for a recent trip to SF and wore them almost every day. Comfy as ever and a nice accent color to my wardrobe. I'm now thinking of purchasing the black patent! They look great with tights and dresses!

Originally I bought a black pair and wore them out so I purchased two more pair. I love the fit, I wish I could find a higher heel with the same comfort. These will be my go-to shoes for a long time. Thanks Cole Haan!

Comfortable, Very Disappointed in Quality

When I can, I buy Cole Haan shoes, because it is a reliable brand. Normally, I love the style, comfort, and quality. In May, I purchased this pair to replace another style I bought in 2010 (black snake print with a patent strap on the toe).
Clearly, the style is cute, comfortable, and took no time to "break in." After owning the shoes for a month, I noticed a point of vulnerability, which initiated a split in the seam on the heel. The seam on the heel started to wear away. Also, I notice that leather on the upper is peeling.
I wanted to like these shoes. If the store would take them back now, I would return them. Maybe they were part of a bad batch, but I recommend that prospecitve shoppers try on the shoes in-person and avoid purchasing them online.

I always wanted to buy a pair of Cole Haan shoes, and I finally got this in dark gray. These look like gray+brown, but I love the color.
Unfortunately, my left foot is half size bigger than the right foot, so my left shoe is still in the process of breaking in. However, I don't have any scar on the heel, and they feel great.
I have to walk at least 15 mins in these shoes, but since the cushioning is excellent, they give my feet nice support. I'm definitely happy with the purchase.

I bought the black flat because I thought it would offer great support and I was not disappointed. It is a very comfy shoe. Although, I have to admit. I was intially worried because the first day I wore them they fit a little tight on the back of my heel. After the 2nd or 3rd time, I wore them they were fine. I just orderd the blue patent pair.

These shoes are amazing! They fit like a glove & the leather is buttery soft. My only complaint...I don't want to wear these outside because I want them to stay amazing! Is it weird to keep a pair of shoes just for wearing at home? ;)

As we know all feet are shaped differently. I am a size 10. One foot is actually a half size smaller. I do not have a wide foot nor narrow, somewhere in between. These fit like a glove. As I continue to wear them they feel very comfortable and molded to my feet. My bunions don't even hurt!
They aren't stretching out too much nor am I walking out the these flats. Has great Nike Technology that works! I have two pairs and will get more.
If you are reluctant to try flats because it just isn't your style, you will be very surprised! I made believers out of a several friends :)
Enjoy! Don't let these get away.

These shoes are so comfortable. I wear them almost every day and I just ordered two more in different colors. I have the black leather and just ordered greige and oxblood, will probably need the black glitter too. :) I used to wear heels most of the time, but I sprained my ankle a bit ago and heels bother my ankle, so I have to wear flats now. Finding stylish AND comfortable flats is a challenge, and these fit the bill perfectly. I normally wear an 8.5 and these were no exception.
The first few days they were a little uncomfortable to wear when I wasn't standing because the elastic needed to stretch a bit, so when I was not walking in them they pinched the back of my heel. So I would slip the heel off my foot while sitting for the first few wears. The toe is a bit tight at first, but it stretches out... I would definitely not size up.
Also, the bottom is a bit slick in the ice/snow, but I put some of the stick-on shoe grips on the bottom and they are great now. I usually wear them with no sock, but I have worn them with tights and a dress and the elastic ensures that the shoe stays on, even with slippery tights. I have 2 other pairs of more dressy cole haan nike flats, and these are by far my favorite.
Awesome shoe, I'm sure I will end up with many pairs. :)

I agree with Jill's comments below. Cute shoe but for me, the fit was weird. Short in the front. Next half size up was a bit big.
Suggest try on in store first, since it didn't fit as all my other Cole Haan sized shoes do.

I have wide feet with very high arches and these shoes fit like a glove. I don't want to take them off and the color is so pretty. I'm a 9 in CH heels and a 9 1/2 in CH flats. I would not suggest going down in size either. Great investment and worth every penny!!

These are by are my favorite ballet flats, ever, specifically because of the suede. So comfy, true to size and no breaking in. PLEASE, please, Cole Haan, make more MS ballet flats in more colors in suede.
