PUMA Women's Vega Ballet Flume Walking Flat

This is my second pair of Pumas in this ballet style. I literally wore the first pair out due to constant use. I previously had the Asha style which had a more shallow heel, but I'm finding I prefer the thicker one on these Vegas. I typically wear an 8.5 wide but ordered these in the 9 since I like to wear them without socks and it gives more room when my feet swell from walking. I added a heel cushion to prevent my heel from slipping out (as I ordered them a half size up). The shoes may LOOK narrow if you have wide feet like me, but I feel the low cut style adds to the comfort and makes up for them not being actual wide width. Another reviewer mentioned the diamond design on the bottoms of the shoes makes a puckering/suction nose when you walk on a smooth surface. I noticed the same thing. Not a huge deal if you're out in public where it's loud, but could annoy some, so just an fyi lolEdit: if you are looking for a no show sock for these, I recommend these - I tried about a dozen different styles from Amazon and these were the ONLY ones that truly were no show for this style shoe -Thirty48 Women’s No Show Loafer Socks, Boat Shoe Liners with Non Slip Grip (One Size (6-9), White(6 Pairs)) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0718SRRZV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_R0FjBbBQ371AD

I love these shoes and have bought three pair in different colors. Some reviewers have pointe out that if you wear them and sweat, they can develop an oder. To resolve this problem, I pull out the inner sole (easy to do) and wash them occasionally. I also put them through the wash, and they come out just fine.

I read all the rave reviews and decided to try them out. They are a little snug where they cross across the top of the food and aren't as comfortable as everyone kept saying they were. I bought them for walking shoes for Greece based on reviews and after wearing them for several days and "breaking them in", I don't think I'll be wearing them for walking around in Greece! I think they might be great for people with narrow feet or if you order up in the width, maybe? But for a standard size 9, I wasn't really impressed with the comfort of these and the fact that they weren't cheap makes me even madder. LOL!!!!

These shoes were immediately comfortable! They look cute and are still comfy like a walking shoe. I get compliments every time I wear them. I bought a similar Puma ballet flat (Asha- I think) and they were difficult to break in. They cut into my heel and I almost gave up on them but when they finally broke in I really enjoyed them and liked the look so I bought these to allow for a similar break-in period but it wasn’t necessary. These were super comfy right out of the box. You won’t regret buying these. Puma has fixed the design problem with the heel of the Asha. The Vega is my new favorite shoe!

I really like them! I just got to that point in pregnancy when it’s getting harder to tie my shoes so these are great. I am a teacher and think these will be great throughout my days on my feet. No room for orthotic soles but there is some memory foam cushion built in. “No show” socks still show along the edges but I don’t really mind and could wear them sock less if I did. I was nervous because there were only whole sizes and I am reliably 7.5, but based on the feedback I went down to 7 and they fit great.

I have owned a few pairs of pumas and usually they make for amazing walking shoes. I bought these for a trip to Ireland and didn't even end up taking them after trying to break them in at home. They are cute, that's for sure. I can't wear those dumb socks that barely cover your toes and heel and these shoes look quite silly with normal socks on. so... it's either sockless or I don't wear them. They do this weird thing when I am walking where the sides of the shoe sort of open , creating a lovely little pocket that allows the elements to enter my shoe very easily. It frequently rains in Ireland so I decided to leave these behind and avoid wet feet. glad I did but sad I didn't have cute shoes to wear. #firstworldproblems

I wanted something that feels like a sneaker but look more like a flat. These definitely are athletic/sporty in style, but they're a lot more comfortable than a typical flat (even for comfort brands like BØRN and Clarks). I don't expect that they'll hold up terribly well over time -- they're a very lightweight shoe -- but when I need to walk long distances and sneakers don't seem appropriate, these are a great alternative.

They fit perfect and don't slip off my heals. I bought these for an upcoming family vacation that will involve long amusement park days, full of walking. I wanted something comfortable, like a tennis shoe, but nicer looking. These definitely fit the bill! I cannot wait to put these to the true test of 5 long days of walking! Plus, I can wear these to the airport for comfortable walking and easily slip on and off to go through security.

The style is cute, but after a couple hours of wearing them they get uncomfortable and hurt my feet.

Comfy shoes, perfect for work.
