Black Flat Shoes

Sometimes the most basic style is the most effective. A basic look can easily become a classic, through the virtue of its simplicity. Basic black is of course a classic of its kind, but what about basic black shoes, or more specifically, black flat shoes. Classic? Yes indeed. The sleek and streamlined shape of the flat shoe in this classic color is a shoe that can go anywhere and be worn with almost everything, yet it always brings the overall style up a step or two.

The black flat shoe in a women’s shoe has always been a popular choice. The classic look in ballet flats is a style that works wonderfully when worn with clothes that play with a sleek line. These flats blend beautifully with a flowing skirt and leggings or with long line pants. Rockport shoes has lovely ballet flats in black leather with a flower detail and rounded toe, for extra appeal. These women’s shoes slip on easily and provide comfort and chic all at the same time.

The classic line of black flats gets a fashionable twist in the shoes from Joan & David. These leather flats have a sandal cut in the leather upper, and sparkling embellishments that add an extra dose of glamour to even a casual ensemble. These dressy thongs are ones she’ll want to wear day in and day out.

The basic black shoe has appeal for men, too. Bass has slip-on penny loafers in supple calf leather that add a feel of classically casual comfort to a suit or a dressed down in khakis look. The polished look of these leather shoes combines beautifully with their ultra comfortable wearability.
