Before deciding on the perfect leather slip-on sneakers, I tried everything available from Givenchy to Sam Edelman…. Which probably explains why I get so many compliments on my new Vince sneakers… They are the best… Butter soft leather, light weight and stylish….
I was in California at the time, so I was ordering, testing and sending back for free… Shopping is so much easier in the States.
Anyway, the verdict is Vince Blair 5 Slip-on sneakers. I chose the perforated leather version because it’s cool for the hot Greek summer. Plus the leather is not as sensitive as the suede.
However, the suede slip-on sneakers from the Autumn Winter collection are part of the Nordstrom anniversary sale (prices go up again on August 4) so for 149$ it is more attractive. 🙂 Consider getting both if you are an athletic type of girl.
They fit true to size. Mine is 8 1/2 US which is 39.5 European.

Thanks 🙂
We love these so much. There was a pair in white with our name on them that we missed out on!

haha I would go for the JCrew white too…
I found a white pair from Sam Edelman that I fell in love with and never got, you’re making me seriously regret my decision lol

The Sam Edelman were not my favorite fit… no regrets!!!
Thanks for a very timely post Nina, need shoes for autumn and you’ve done research for me. Now thinking of getting Vince Blair but in suede as i think they would be more suitable for colder weather. Which ones would you prefer in suede Blair or Bowen from Nordstrom?
I love the Blair… I wore them and I know they are super comfortable!
I understand this is an old blog post, but I just received my Blair sneakers in the mail and they are a little snug (I ordered a full size down as my half size down was too big). Did yours stretch any? Thanks so much for your help!
