Quick Take
The Day Glove is famous for leather so soft it needs no break in, plus a cushioned insole and side vents for all day wear. At ninety eight dollars it is a fair price, though owner reviews flag inconsistent sizing, so try them carefully.
What We Like
- Buttery soft leather with almost no break in
- Cushioned insole is comfortable for long days
- Clean, elegant look goes with everything
- Back pull tab and side vents add comfort
- Fair price for real leather flats
What We Don’t Like
- Sizing runs inconsistent across colorways
- Leather can feel stiff in some pairs
- Not much arch support
- Spot clean only, which limits easy care

Full Review
Quality
The Day Glove is cut from LWG Gold certified calf leather that feels genuinely luxurious, with a leather lining and rubber sole. The updated version adds insole cushioning and a truer fit. Construction is clean and minimal, exactly what a ballet flat should be, though quality varies a bit between batches.
Value
Ninety eight dollars, down from one forty eight, is a strong price for leather flats of this quality. Comparable designer flats cost three times more. The value holds if the sizing works for you, so order with Everlane easy returns in mind.
Who Should Buy It
Flat lovers who want polish without heels.
Who Should Skip It
If you need arch support or have hard to fit feet, try before you buy.
FINAL VERDICT
The Day Glove is a lovely flat at a fair price, with softness that lives up to the hype. Just respect the sizing quirks and use the free returns if needed.
