Mary jane/ballet flats for wide feet?

Hello stylish ones, I’m after your suggestions please.

I’ve just bought these flats from Massimo Dutti - https://www.massimodutti.com/gb/gathered-stretch-ballet-flats-l11564250

I love how they look, but they feel a half size too small on my slightly wide trotters. (They’re very soft leather and I love the strap, they’d be very comfy on people with slender feet.)

They also have no grip at all on the sole, so I almost went flying on the kitchen tiles while trying them on!

So sadly they’re going back tomorrow, but does anyone have suggestions for similar shoes that might fit, be comfortable, and not put me at risk of breaking my neck?

(I’m a size 4-5 and I don’t always need specifically wide-fitting shoes, sometimes those are too wide - it depends on the style etc.)

TIA!

I have fit flops ballet flats and I would say they are slightly on the wide side.
They are comfortable and not slippy but also not super stylish, I would say.

I have the Cos MJs and they’re very comfortable on my wide feet
