A celebrity-loved luxury shoe of the highest quality that is handcrafted by artisans in Italy and sold at direct-to-consumer prices? Tell me everything. This honest review of Sarah Flint shoes includes sizing, quality, and a discount code for your first order. As someone who owns and wears almost every style, this is is a must read before buying. Below I review the Natalie Flat, Emma Sling, Perfect Pump, Perfect Jay Pump, Perfect Emma, Perfect Block Sandal, Perfect Sandal, Perfect Dress Bootie, Perfect Zip Bootie, Rosie Loafer, and Sacchetto Ballet Flat.
As women, one thing we can all agree on is that it is no easy feat finding a shoe that is comfortable, durable, and gorgeous. We actually consider ourselves lucky if a shoe meets only two of those criteria! I’m sure you know the debacle: You find a shoe that is beautiful, buy them, wear them to work the next day, and your feet are howling by lunch.
We’ve all been there one too many times! So it should come as no surprise that when I finally found a shoe that was the triple threat – comfortable, durable, and gorgeous – I haven’t been able to stop talking about them. So much so, that I became one of their Brand Ambassadors. I’m talking about you, Sarah Flint.
I first discovered Sarah Flint shoes when Meghan Markle wore the Natalie Flat on her first official appearance with Prince Harry as a couple to the Invictus Games. See some of her best Sarah Flint moments here. Once I saw the photos of her pretty bow flats I headed to the Sarah Flint website to check out the new to me brand.
Upon reading Sarah’s story, I was immediately intrigued and have been following both the Sarah Flint brand and Sarah on Instagram ever since, but it was when I got my very first pair of Sarah Flint shoes that I knew I had finally struck shoe gold. Plus, let me say it… They are designed by a WOMAN.

About Sarah Flint
Passionate about women’s shoes and frustrated that women had to choose between a shoe that looked good or felt good, Sarah started her shoe brand at the young age of 25. She set out to create a brand that was classically elegant on the outside and packed with comfort on the inside. In just a few years her shoes graced the feet of Amal Clooney, Meghan Markle, Karlie Kloss, and Cindy Crawford. I mean, Meghan Markle wore the Perfect Pump on their royal tour… That says something about their comfort.
What captured me the most about Sarah Flint shoes is the commitment to every single detail. Sarah fell in love with hand-made, artisanal details during her time at Ars Sutoria in Italy where she studied shoe pattern making and production. Because of this, her shoes are handcrafted in Italy by the artisans who make the highest quality luxury shoes in the world. This becomes evident when you hold a pair of her stunning shoes in your hands and can see how much thought has gone into each pair. All at a direct-to-consumer price… I’m sold.
Sarah Flint Shoes Sizing
When it comes to sizing I can only speak from my own experience. My typical US size is a 7.5. After trying a few sizes, I take a size IT 38.5 in Sarah Flint shoes for my perfect fit. Be sure to check the “Fit Notes” on each shoe’s page when deciding on a size. They are very helpful!

Sarah Flint Natalie Flat
The Natalie Flat is my most worn pair of Sarah Flint shoes so far. I now own this style in Saddle Vacchetta, Black Vacchetta, Sand Calf, and Leopard Haircalf. I get the most wear out of the Sand Calf and Saddle Vacchetta. The pointed toe and asymmetrical bow detail are among my favorite design elements in the Sarah Flint collection! They look great dressed up or dressed down and with 3mm of extra padding added to the foot bed they are the epitome of comfort.
I have had my first pair of Natalie Flats for over three years now and they have held up so beautifully. They do stretch out the tiniest bit as you break them in so keep that in mind when choosing a size. As mentioned earlier, they speak to this in the “Fit Notes” on the website. I went with my size IT 38.5 and they are just right. A classic style to wear for years to come and definitely worth the wardrobe investment!
Worn by: Meghan Markle, Cindy Crawford.
Sarah Flint Sacchetto Ballet Flat
The Sacchetto Ballet Flat is an elevated version of the iconic ballet flat and one of the newer releases. It is incredibly soft and flexible, due to a unique sacchetto construction which uses fewer seams. My favorite part about it is the squared cap toe and covered button! My favorites are the Rose Gold Nappa, Sand Nappa, and Espresso Suede. If you are looking for comfort, these are your shoe. These also look incredible dressed up or dressed down.
Due to the sacchetto construction, this style fits more loosely at the sides. I have narrow feet, so I took a half size down. As mentioned earlier, they speak to this in the “Fit Notes” on the website. I went with a size IT 38 and they are just right. A gorgeous style to wear for years to come and definitely worth the wardrobe investment!
Sarah Flint Rosie Loafer
The Rosie loafer is that perfect cross between a flat and a heel. The sleekest loafer that I own due to it’s gorgeous almond toe box and perfect little 30mm heel height. These are your walk all day and still look put together shoes! I own and love the Black Suede, Navy Suede, and Leopard Hair Calf. I wear the Navy Suede the most and they have held up beautifully.
They do stretch out the tiniest bit as you break them in so keep that in mind when choosing a size. As mentioned earlier, they speak to this in the “Fit Notes” on the website. I took a size IT 38 and they are just right. Love these for work!

Sarah Flint Emma Sling & Perfect Emma
The Emma Sling is a 2 inch slingback pump with the most gorgeous V-shaped vamp and pointed toe. In terms of comfort, the inset block heel provides the height of the pump without the heaviness of a traditional block heel. I own both the Cognac Calf and the gorgeous Tortoise Patent. I love how this sophisticated classic adds the perfect amount of height and lengthens the look of your legs. This style also comes as a Perfect Emma, sans slingback and even more comfort!
I have had my first pair of Emma Slings for over two years now and they have held up incredibly well. I wear these so much in the fall and winter! These don’t really stretch out as you break them in so keep that in mind when choosing a size. As mentioned earlier, they speak to this in the “Fit Notes” on the website. I went with my size IT 38.5 and they are just right. Again, a worthy wardrobe investment!

Sarah Flint Perfect Pump
The Perfect Pump is probably Sarah’s most well known shoe and it’s comfort speaks for itself! This pump is beyond chic due to it’s pointed toe and v-shaped vamp. With an expanded toe box, anatomical arch support, steel rod stiletto heel, and 6mm of extra footbed padding you will forget that you even have on heels! It comes in 3 heel heights – 50mm (2 inches), 85mm (3.3 inches), and 100mm (4 inches). I personally find the 85mm to be my favorite and am in the process of growing my own collection with the Sand Calf, Navy Suede, Black Suede, Cabernet Suede (a Meghan Markle owned shade), and Taupe Suede. I take the IT 38.5 in these.
I have a more narrow foot and have found that these don’t really stretch out as you break them in so keep that in mind when choosing a size. As mentioned earlier, check the “Fit Notes” on the website. I took my size IT 38.5.

Sarah Flint Perfect Jay Pump
The Perfect Jay Pump is a more bolder and more retro version of the Perfect Pump. It still has the timeless pointed toe silhouette, v-shaped vamp, and comfort of the Perfect Pump, but with a thicker tapered tortoise heel. Truly a show stopper! They come in Black Suede and Navy Suede in both 85mm (3.3 inches), and 100mm (4 inches). I have the 85mm in Black Suede and feel like I could wear them walking all day long!

Sarah Flint Perfect Block Sandal
The Perfect Block Sandal is the sandal version of the beloved Perfect Pump. With an inset block heel, expanded toe box, anatomical arch support, and 6mm of extra footbed padding you will be running laps in these sandals! It comes in 3 heel heights – 30mm (1 inch), 60mm (2.5 inches), and 90mm (3.5 inches). I have the 90mm in White Calf, 60mm in Sand Calf, and 30mm in White Calf. Every time I wear these they keep getting more comfortable!

Sarah Flint Perfect Sandal
The Perfect Sandal is the shoe that you reach for when you want legs for days. These are said to have been designed to be the perfect wedding shoe. All the height we want, with none of the pain! They are in the “Perfect” family which means arch support, padding, a steel rod stiletto, and wider toe box. These come in 85mm (3.3 inches) and 100mm (4 inches). I chose the Sand Calf, Blush Nude, and Gold Nappa in both 85mm and 100mm in this style for some extra oomph.

Sarah Flint Perfect Dress Bootie
The Perfect Dress Bootie is just that… The perfect dress bootie! The design of these booties features the most beautiful scalloped detailing. I can be picky about where my booties hit on my leg so I’m happy to report that these hit at the most flattering place. They also have all of the comfort features in the “Perfect” family. They come in Black Suede in both a 60mm (2.4 inches) and 90mm (3.5 inches). I have both sizes and tend to gravitate towards the taller more. Love them for work!

Sarah Flint Perfect Zip Bootie
The Perfect Zip Bootie is a classic wardrobe staple. The almond toe, gold hardware, and slightly higher front make this bootie so special. Not to mention the comfort level! They come in Black Calf, Espresso Crosta, and Camel Crosta in both a 30mm (1 inch) and 70mm (2.75 inches). I love these for shopping, travel, or busy days!
