It ruins so many potentially great shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repetto-ballet-flats-worth-it#post-48997 Tue, 10 Feb 2009 02:21:28 +0000 judy 48997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't worn them, but Repetto makes/made real ballet shoes, in France, as in toe shoes and dance wear, so maybe that why their things are so pricey...? I've been curious about them too. Sometimes shoe prices are just craaaazy! I did get a pair of gorgeous/had been expensive flats at the Rack last fall by this person: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/C/6006465/0~2376778~2372811~6006465?cm_ven=google&#038;cm_cat=shoes&#038;cm_pla=anyi_lu&#038;cm_ite=anyi%20lu" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/C/60.....=anyi%20lu</a> ...and I have to say, they are actually amazing, though I paid like 65 or 75 dollars for them. But of course, you get to walk around the Rack in them for quite a while, while deciding whether to buy :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repetto-ballet-flats-worth-it#post-48984 Tue, 10 Feb 2009 00:47:02 +0000 Angie 48984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure. But the binding will rub. I try to avoid shoes with binding. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repetto-ballet-flats-worth-it#post-48959 Mon, 09 Feb 2009 20:54:52 +0000 greenglove 48959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting question, what would make them so pricey? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/repetto-ballet-flats-worth-it#post-48907 Mon, 09 Feb 2009 17:56:29 +0000 Ariadne 48907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone tried Repetto ballet flats? They always seem to be recommended as THE perfect ballet flat. They're pretty pricey--$255 CAD for the basic black leather variety. Then again, if they really are perfect and if they hold up to a lot of wear, maybe that's not so bad. They do have that fabric piping along the edges, which makes me suspicious:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravitypope.com/view_large_image.php?image=shoes/repetto/5969_0_1_700.jpg&#038;brand_path=repetto&#038;id=5969" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravitypope.com/vie.....38;id=5969</a> </p>
