I am so sad to write this review, as they are an otherwise beautiful pair of shoes, but they just have awful functionality.
The slingback part of the heel constantly falls down due to the elastic stretching and not being able to hold the slingback in place. It slips down even when you take just a few steps, and it is embarrassing when you are at work and have to keep bending down to adjust it again to the correct position on your heel. I replaced the elastic with some ribbons that wouldn't stretch, which was a huge improvement, but still not perfect and it is constantly just a little bit bent downwards out of shape. It would be better with a buckle instead of elastic, or just a classic ballet flat design, with a proper heel.
It is such a shame, as otherwise, the material is very high quality, and the vegan suede is lovely. The soles are very sturdy, the small heel is also a really nice height, and the shoes have a lovely overall shape to them.
These are shoes for a wedding next year and I’m trying on to get used to them
Unable to review these shoes as I was sent brown lace up brogues instead and then they were out of stock. Maybe need better IT systems in place to avoid requesting a review inappropriately!

I absolutely love this brand and these shoes - they were just what I was looking for! Also really good value.
I was on the hunt for some plain / classic black flats that didn't have a bow or super round shape to them and went for these. I was a little nervous about the "slingback" style, thinking it would dig into my heel or become stretched out over time.
Pros: They are very good looking shoes, neutral enough to go with most everything. I get compliments every time I wear them! The sole, heel and material are of excellent quality -- as to be expected with WVS. And, I love the little heel and toe shape they have -- very polished look.
Cons: The sling feature is not the most comfortable, at least for me. It walks more like a flip-flop. The slingback was fine during the break in period, with the toecap doing more of the digging in on the top of my foot. Now the sling seems to be a bit too loose.
My wish would be for this exact shoe to be made with a regular back.
