Joe Nimble – Step Toes

The hunt for the perfect ballet flat continues. I like Joe Nimble and want to like Joe Nimble but when a shoe is in the more expensive range (these ballets 159 €) they have to deliver all the way and unfortunately this model didn´t fit my feet well.

I took size US 5,5/ EU 38,5

As always Joe Nimble’s shoes are very well made and has a very soft and comfy sole. According to size chart I took size 38,5 which is smaller than I normally choose but these (and for Nimble Toe) is the right size for my feet lenght (<24.5 cm). Unfortunately there were two issus for me with this model. 1) The heels fold. 2) There is a pressure that shafes (se pic below).

The lenght was ok even if the heels is pressed forward.

The green/blue line marks the uncomfy pressure.

The heels folds a lot, here beside a sunstantially sheaper “no brand” barefoot ballerina.
