What are women's flats?
Traditional flats—as beloved as women's flat shoes are—can suffer from the reputation of being uncomfortable, bulky, and unsupportive, and come in a dizzying number of choices, so it’s tricky to know what’s still stylish. They can come with no laces and in a variety of silhouettes. However, what makes FRANKIE4 flats revolutionary is the secret support systems inside our pairs that continuously deliver discreet, elevated support, taking beloved classics into the future of fashion while maintaining all the best of the things we love about flats.
With FRANKIE4s exclusive range, you can still choose from the flats you love without sacrificing comfort or style, whether that be the eternal ballet pump, loafer, or brogue, thanks to contoured cushioning, buttery-soft leather, and innovative in-built support. Whether you need something demure and ready for spring, ideal for a summer getaway, or perfect for everyday style on the go, we believe flats should support you from the soles up.
What are the different types of women's flats?
Whether it’s loafers, ballet flats, pointed-toe pairs, or mary-janes you're partial to, there’s a FRANKIE4 style of flat shoe for women is perfect for every occasion and one which will complement your wardrobe. Casual flats are a simple and practical solution for elevating everyday ensembles, too, so if flats are normally your first choice, there is still a world of style opportunities to explore. Not to mention, our gorgeous range of boots also has plentiful flat heel options.
Intentionally placed lining that relieves pressure and a layered, supported cushion system designed to ease common foot pain symptoms are just some of the features of our beloved flats.
Rare characteristics are our flats’ forte, with traditional, heavy construction turned into lightweight, handcrafted quality pairs you can turn to again and again. Furthermore, our flats are created to perform as well as look beautiful, whether that’s meticulously woven leather designed to keep shape or keeping a classic silhouette but introducing revolutionary design features within.
What are the most popular flat shoes?
When it comes to womens flats the ballet pump (like our POPPY), dress shoes (otherwise referred to as brogues), and lace-up versions (akin to our OLiViA) are firm favourites to this day, even throughout the decades of fashion revolutions—true style never fades. However, all our styles flatter the ankle, support the foot, and create a complimentary silhouette whilst remaining perennially stylish. It’s womens flats like you’ve never experienced.
If you’re finding it too difficult to pick just one pair of flats, perhaps choose to curate your own collection—you can select from our newly launched shoe sets or handpick your very own with our exclusive build-your-own shoe sets.
