They feature a corset-style lace-up detail that adds a distinctive, modern touch while maintaining a feminine and elegant aesthetic. Their flat, flexible construction ensures all-day comfort, while the high-quality leather adapts to the foot, offering softness and durability. Ideal for elegant everyday looks, smart-casual outfits or even special occasions with a minimalist edge.
Elegance: refined design with lace-up detail
Comfort: flat and flexible structure
Use: daily wear, office, events
The Pedro Miralles Atenea 18371 is not a basic wardrobe ballet flat, but a more refined, design-led version with greater visual presence. The key lies in combining a sleek, low-profile silhouette with premium leather construction and a lace-up system threaded through metal eyelets, transforming the shoe into something far more distinctive. The result is a feminine, elegant ballet flat with character and a stronger visual identity than conventional flat shoes. The Atenea line within the Pedro Miralles range reinforces its sophisticated brand positioning.
Design and style
The first thing you notice is its clean, streamlined profile. The toe is soft and rounded, the sides are neatly finished, and attention is drawn to the lace detail across the upper, creating a subtle corset-inspired effect without being excessive. In leather tones such as tan or brown, the shoe becomes highly versatile, pairing effortlessly with neutrals, denim, black, beige or refined dresses.
It is a ballet flat designed for when you want to wear flats but avoid a basic or plain look. The lace detail works both aesthetically and functionally, offering a more secure feel compared to standard slip-on flats.

Comfort and wear
These ballet flats offer the ease of a flat shoe, with the added benefit of a lace-up system that improves foot hold. This is particularly useful for narrower feet or for those who prefer a more secure fit across the instep.
The low profile (approx. 1 cm) ensures a natural, stable walking experience suitable for everyday urban use. The focus is on comfort through simplicity rather than technical cushioning.
Durability and real use
Leather tends to age well when properly cared for, and the timeless design supports long-term use. These are not intended for intensive walking or demanding outdoor conditions, but they perform very well in office environments, daily errands, meetings, travel, or smart-casual urban routines.
Best for / Not ideal for
Best for:
- Smart leather ballet flats with character
- Office and everyday refined looks
- Comfortable travel footwear
- Elegant casual styling
Not ideal for:
- Long-distance walking or heavy tourism

- Those seeking ultra-soft, unstructured flats
Size guide
If between sizes, choose the larger one for extra comfort or thicker socks; choose your usual size for a closer fit. Measure your foot at the end of the day. If you have a high instep or wider foot, the lace-up design allows for better adjustability and a more customised fit.
Care
Clean with a soft dry cloth after use. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and air dry. Apply leather care cream regularly. Avoid soaking. Store with shoe trees or soft filling to maintain shape.
