I’ve had these in the queue to post for ages (or at least since they surfaced at Opening Ceremony), but they’re not clogs, so they kept getting pushed down the list 😉
This pair of collaborative Repetto ballet flats by Rodarte are lovely, but not worth the price tag IMO. I do think Repetto BB flats ARE worth their normally $225 or so price tag, although I never pay that much, but I don’t think these are worth twice as much. I appreciate the design and the Rodarte contribution, but I was quite shocked by the $425 price tag…
are these even leather? i agree with you – $200+ is already pushing it for a delicate shoe like ballet flats…but since it’s repetto and they’re handmade in france the price is passable.
the ballet slipper-flat is everywhere this season. i just saw barneys co-op’s version at a whopping $300 and apc is out with their own collab with prosellis. i really love my blochs 🙂

they are leather! i was surprised…not even the repetto x james perse flats are leather.
i love my bloch’s also!! very comfortable, and i got them for less than $100 on gilt.
i’d forgotten about the JP x repetto collab! although i love the collab in theory, i’m too much of a traditionalist and will always favor leather over all other materials for footwear 😉

i agree, although sometimes i like the idea of a different “texture” for shoes
