    Have you worn the Dessy ballet flats, Im wondering if they are true to shoe size? Im a size 11 in sneakers, but should I order a 10 because of the stretch on the back of the flat?

    Im seeing on the internet that they are a little tight and the biggest size is an 11, and they have a no return policy. So Im guessing I have to find another flat some place else.

    I don't know about those in patricular but I've had 2 pairs of ballet flats with elastic back and did not find them to run large. I actually think they fit more sungly because the elastic comes in to meet your foot. They also both gave my blisters. Good luck in your search.

    I wouldn't order a size down...I find them to fit even tighter than regular flats!

    I agree with the others - my normal shoe size is a 10, but I usually end up ordering a 10.5 in flats because they tend to run smaller.

    alrighty. i bought the dessy flats you are looking at and they arrived a month ago, i used their chart which according to it i would have needed a size 11, i normally wear a size 10. i ordered the 11 after hearing what most of the people are saying here that they fit small. NOPE! i got them the shoes are too big for me, yes they stay on my feet because of the elastic but i should have gotten the size 10 and they would have been perfect. so i now have to reorder the shoes before my wedding and pay for them again! ugh!

    I dont think Im going to go with Dessy flats. I found some flats that Davids Bridal has at their store so im going to head over there to try them on. Thanks ladies and thanks Junliw for the link...the first pair on there are like the Davids bridal ones. Great site! :)
