Air & Grace shoes?

Came across them on instagram, a search on here can only find a few posts from back in 2016.

Just wondering if anyone has had any of their shoes and whether they're as comfy as they claim?

Desperately need a pair of ballet pumps that are comfortable and might last more than a few weeks.

I have two pairs of the trainers. They are comfy, but no more so that any other decent trainer. I also find their sizing odd as there conversion from European to UK sizzing is different from most shops. I like them though.

I’ve got some boots for work and they are no better than any ‘medium quality’ boots.

I'm loving their new Cru style but my word, £169 Shock.

Are they fairly true to size (if I were to be tempted)?

I have some of their trainers but tbh they aren't that great - as said above, not really any more comfortable than any other trainers. Also the sizing is very big. AND I have been very put off by the fact that all those people on instagram have been sent them for free (and are now having to say so after the mumsnet thread on declaring all the gifts they get)

Regarding your need for some ballet pumps OP, I bought these pumps last year (don't worry - they come in a plainer grey/black colour if these are too funky!) and they are so comfortable and well made. They also make them in a wider fitting.

I bought some brogues from there in the sale - don't have the trainers but the brogues are like walking on air because they have a bouncy inner sole. The leather is really soft from the get go and I love them. I also get lots of compliments when I wear them, which is a bonus. Having said that I paid normal prices (I think £49 in the sale) so didn't have sky high expectations.

I have just thrown out their Copeland trainers, bought them in the summer. Yes, comfortable but quite wide fitting and went shabby very quickly. The gifting on Instagram put me off them too. I wouldn't buy the brand again. I don't know what their ballet pumps are like but I'd go for Russell & Bromley, in are a similar price range and will last you years.

BillyAndTheSillies · 31/01/2018 22:27

Thanks all will probably give them a miss! Was tempted by some Russell and Bromley pumps, but bought a pair of their Chelsea boots this winter and they're already coming away from the sole and have had to be re-heeled twice already!

Back to the drawing board.

I have trainers from there and have actually found them very comfy and they’ve lasted well. Had them a year with moderate use.. maybe one day a week’s wear.
