True to size. If you have a narrow foot, we suggest going down half a size.

Thoughts from Maria
As I was dreaming up this square-toe ballet flat, I realized it didn’t actually have to be flat. With its 20mm hidden wedge, The Danza has the classic look you love and much-needed arch support. That combined with its unique sacchetto construction—a technique in which the soft leather lining is sewn with minimal seams for a glove-like fit—makes for an astonishingly comfortable shoe.

Danza flats
This is the prettiest, most comfortable flat I’ve ever owned. I have purchased a lot of designer shoes over the years and these are the best!

Beautiful Shoe - Maybe not as Wide as it Could be
I love this shoe and am making it work. The "Wide" could stand to be a bit wider. Full disclosure: my feet are problematic due to having surgery last year, but I want to make these work, so I am trying to stand it. The light support is welcome and I think if the toebox came down my foot a bit more, these would be great.

Great shoe with perfect amount of lift
I have the Danza in two colors - navy and tan. I bought the tan first about two years ago and came back for the navy last fall. A classic ballet style shoe. They are extremely comfortable right out of the box. And are true to size for me. The hidden wedge is the perfect amount of lift. I came back to the site to check for new colors, alas there are none. Would love to see some new options!

Perfect
So elegant. Impeccable construction which fit like a glove. The comfort of a low-wedge with the look of a ballet flat. I’m typically anywhere between and 8.5, 9, and 9.5 US. The 9 fit my narrow feet perfectly. The reviews were extremely helpful. This is my first M. Gemi shoe and I am sold!

Gorgeous
Beautiful shoe just what I was looking for. Ample fit works perfect as on foot is larger than the other!

A staple for any outfit.
This is my second pair in this style. I wear a 7.5US and purchased 38. Fits true to size with just a tiny bit of room but as I have slightly wider feet, I prefer to have a little room. Love that I can pair with jeans, skirts, dresses. Extremely comfortable and will probably buy more in the future.
