Madewell Sidewalk Skimmer in Suede


I need another pair of flats like I need another hole in the head but I just can't help myself! These are so cute! And I definitely prefer a slightly pointier toe because I think it's more flattering to the foot. And leg for that matter.

Madewell Sidewalk Skimmer in Suede  in Bandana Red (on sale for $69.99? in store)



These felt slightly big - like maybe I could have sized down to a 7. I have big ol' lovely bunions on the side of my feet so maybe I would stick with this size and deal with a little shot of toe cleavage. The suede feels so flexible and the base of the shoe also feel quite comfortable. The color is really saturated and gorgeous. 

I also tried the Sidewalk Skimmer in Glitter and that felt more TTS. Stiffer of course because of the glitter but still quite comfortable and a little snugger so no fear of falling off. 


These flats are so adorable and classic. If I actually needed more flats I would pick some up in almost every color.

Anyone else own and love?

  1. I have the Madewell skimmer in both of the red colors, blue, leopard and still adding. Comfortable, great price, chic and well made! Guess that means I love them!

    1. Glad to hear you love them too! Did you find that you took your regular shoe size? I found they ran slightly big.

  2. The shoes look great on your feet. I have really long toes so I guess I'm just used to toe cleavage. :)

    Yes, I own and love skimmers too! I find they're very comfortable and I especially like the shape of the toes - not too pointy, not too round.

    1. Agree about the toes. I own so many round shaped ballerina flats and I don't think they look half as elegant on the feet. Wish I had ordered the red ones when I had a chance.

  3. Ditto! I own two pair and absolutely love them. I'm considering picking up another pair with the current promotion.
    That red suede is really beautiful.

    1. Love the red too. Glad to hear they are really comfortable. I always buy shoes in a store thinking they are great only to wear them on the street and notice they don't fit well.
