The chicest pair of almost-flats around. The Buckle Shoe has a 1960s-feeling covered buckle (think Catherine Deneuve in Belle de Jour,) a demi heel that clocks in at just under an inch, and a slightly cushioned insole that feels like a dream on your feet. Each pair is made in Italy from velvety calf suede. And style-wise, they've got some range: polished and ladylike with a silk blouse, a little Twiggy-mod with a trim skirt, and disarmingly cool with some broken-in jeans and a t-shirt. A bestseller since 2014 for a reason.
