'I own several pairs' - why shoppers love Next's £22 ballet flats in 10 colours
Next's Forever Comfort Ballerina Shoes have become one of the store's best-selling shoes
Next customers are raving about the retailer's range of ballet flats, with many confessing to snapping up several pairs due to how "well made" and "comfortable" they are. The £22 Forever Comfort Ballerina Shoes from Next have now become some of the store's top-selling footwear.
Shoppers can browse through a selection of up to 10 different colours and patterns, including options like classic black, nude and black, champagne gold, navy blue, navy corduroy, pink nude, pink raffia, silver, and not one but two leopard print designs. When it comes to fit, there's a choice between standard or extra wide, catering to sizes ranging from three to nine, with half sizes also available for that perfect fit.
Each pair boasts a round toe and bow detail, with finishes varying from glossy to matte or textured. Next highlights that its extra wide option is designed to "provide extra width across the foot."
For those fancying a floral touch, New Look offers White Floral Embroidered Mesh Ballet Flats at £27.99. And if you're after a white and black colour scheme rather than pink and black, there is also the White Contrast Toe Cap Ballerina Pumps for £19.99, reports Devon Live.
The praise for Next's ballet flats is clear from the multiple glowing reviews on the website, where comfort and versatility are recurring compliments. One satisfied customer said: "I ordered standard size. Looked and fit beautiful. Beautiful shoe, looked really classy, so well made. Highly recommend these. True to size and very comfy."
A second said: "The perfect little shoe for a great price! So comfortable and smart looking." A third shared their experience, saying: "They are so comfy. I worm them all day for the first time and never rubbed any where." A fourth commented: "Nice ballerinas, comfy for everyday wear," but mentioned: "The backs at the heel were a bit hard at first but soon broke them in."
Numerous customers have become such fans of the Forever Comfort Ballerina Shoes that they've added several pairs to their collection. One buyer revealed: "This is the third pair of forever comfort ballerinas I have bought over the last three years. I wear them for work practically every day the insoles are so comfortable I find them very hard-wearing too and great value."
Another repeated customer said: "I purchased these style of shoes last year in navy blue and they were perfect so I decided to get them in black for this summer." Echoing the sentiment, a third credited the multiple purchases to their quality: "I have had several pairs of these and would recommend." Another satisfied buyer added: "Fifth purchase of this style which says it all. Good price too."
Someone else expressed their continuous purchasing by saying: "This isn't my first pair of this style. I've purchased more because I find them very comfortable. Love the colour combination." However, not all feedback was glowing. Some shoppers found the shoes lacked comfort, and sizing was an issue for others.
One disgruntled customer said: "Stiff and uncomfortable shoes Gave me blisters." Another customer expressed sizing concerns: "Came up slightly too small. Purchased my usual size, but with I had returned."
This sentiment was mirrored by another shopper who said: "Too small, returned for refund." A different buyer had mixed feelings and wrote: "These pretty ballerina pumps fitted well. However, the colour was nowhere near the pink nude colour advertised, the shade was more a light brown and didn't co-ordinate with my spring wedding outfit at all. Disappointed."
For those in the market for new ballet flats like the Forever Comfort Ballerina Shoes, there's a wide array available beyond Next. H&M features an alternative with its strap-inclusive Mary Jane Ballet Pumps retailing at £22.99 and available in four different shades.
Amazon offers another option worth considering - the Feversole Round Toe Ballet Flat Pumps. These shoes boast bow detailing and a variety of colours similar to Next's offering, along with the convenience of half sizes, priced at £19.99.
Amazon's shoes have an overall customer score of 4.3 stars out of five. One shopper said: "Very comfy, would definitely buy again." Another put: "I'm absolutely thrilled. Rarely had shoes that are now so mega comfortable. No squeezing, no rubbing. Absolutely great and comfortable"

But not everyone was happy with their purchase. One reviewer said: "These are lovely on and I love the print. I have given them 4 stars though because the sizing is so confusing. I had to reorder as the first pair were enormous, based off my waist measurement.
