These Flats Are Not Only Cute, But Also Comfortable (Just Look at the Reviews)
When you think about the most comfortable shoes in your wardrobe, a pair of sneakers may come to mind first. But flats can actually be just as comfy. But here’s the thing. Even with the flat silhouette, many of the styles out there can be deceiving with many pinching and rubbing in the wrong spots to create discomfort. But we went on a mission to uncover not only cute styles that could be of interest to bring sophistication and polish to a look, but also comfortable picks as well.
To find said styles, we dove into the customer review sections of various retailers to see real feedback from people that have tested out the flats and rated them on comfort. In the end, there were 24 standouts with four stars and above, including ballet silhouettes, mules, and loafers. Keep scrolling for more—you may just spot your new go-to pair.
Ballet and Pointed Flats
"Love these flats! The color is neutral and goes with EVERYTHING - the slightly square shape is trend forward and the shoes themselves are so comfortable. Took one day to break these in, but the soft leather is very comfortable." — YellowAbby
"I bought two Margaux pairs already and I can't recommend this brand enough! The shoes are gorgeous, so high in quality and So comfortable at the same time! Will definitely buying again!" — Dio
"I've spent several hundreds of dollars looking for a wear-to-work flat that looks professional, but won't kill my feet. I wish I had bought these first. They look great and are super comfy. I just bought a second pair for when we go back to work. True to size." — SaraHarriet
"I picked the size 9.5 and it fits me well. The shoes are very comfortable. I would like to buy another pair of different colors." — Nancy123
"Actually so comfortable. A little padded on the inside." — Brittnaynay
"My first pair of Rothy’s was the flat, which is oh so comfortable, and I was leery of trying the point for fear of it making my feet look even longer. These are so great and there was no need to worry. I am not a pointy shoe person but I love how fancy or casual these can feel depending on the outfit!" — Marci G
"This ballet flat is so comfortable! There is no breaking in required at all :) True to size and width!" — BrittneytheFashionista
Mules
"The loafer mule feels so soft and is very comfortable to wear. It also goes well with many outfits, so dressing up or casual is effortless. The leather is soft and delicate so any scratches might show, but a little leather conditioner will smooth it right up. My feet are in between narrow and average, and this mule fits perfectly." — annidarling
"Cuter in person and very comfortable/easy to wear. They look super cute with just jeans and a white tee! I’m a true 7.5 in shoes and these fit perfect." — Lissas
"Beautiful pair of shoes. True to size. Simple yet elegant. Leather is supple. The horsebit buckle is just the right amount of detail. Very comfortable. No breaking-in needed as these shoes feel like it is customized to your feet. This could be the next walking shoe." — Pidot
"I ordered 3 pairs of white mules. These were the most comfortable. The elastic on each side allows for movement instead of the shoe digging into the top of your foot. Runs true to size." — Krissy71yoga
"Very comfortable and stylish mules. I also purchased in the cream/snakeprint. Can be dressed up or down." — Wonder1woman
"These are so comfy and super easy to use go with everything love love! Run small go a whole size up." — Azmaveth
"I loved the look of this shoe and was hoping I'd love it in person, and I'm so happy to say it did not disappoint! It's insanely comfortable, the perfect fit, and such a fun style. These shoes brightened my day when they arrived and I can't wait to wear them out when life goes back to normal someday!" — Beth C

"I am so glad I decided to purchase this mule. I love the look, the square toe makes it so fall 2019 but not so much that it will not be a viable shoe for years. I did go up half size and it was a great fit!" — lovedesigners14
Loafers
"Soft soft leather. Very comfortable, even with a high instep. These are great shoes." — Sed429
"These are a show stopper. Compliments and comfortable. A gorgeous addition to a casual outfit or business savvy day." — SavvyShopperr0585
"These are true to size, perfect width, and very comfortable. I am a 6.5 and got these in a 6.5. No break-in period, just comfortable right from the start! The leather is soft and high quality. I thought the craftsmanship was beautiful, plus they literally go with everything — jeans and a sweater, pants and a blouse, midi skirts, shorter skirts, everything." — Annie
"Very comfy!! I do feel that I will need to break m the leather in a bit but these shoes are over perfection." — ShopNordy19
"These shoes are everything I hoped for.....classy and comfortable! My foot is slightly narrow, and I purchased in my true size. They fit like a dream!" — 123suebee
"Fits like a glove and comfy from day one. The fact that these are waterproof is even better!" — Hkquinn
