Yes, you, your best friend and even your mum might own the Ganni buckle ballet flats—who doesn’t?—but their reign as fashion’s favourite flat shoe could soon be coming to an end. Why? Because the Scandi brand has just dropped a new addition to its footwear collection, and fashion fans are particularly impressed. Enter: the Ganni Lace-Up Eyelet Ballet Flats.
In true Ganni style, the new-season shoes give an old classic a contemporary twist. Inspired by 1920s lace-up boots, the simple ballet flat is reimagined with oversized eyelets studded across the toe and sides, threaded with a single long lace. The result? Instantly eye-catching. Better yet, for anyone who hates fiddly laces, the back of the shoe is elasticated for an easy slip-on, slip-off fit.
Since debuting on Instagram, the Ganni Lace-Up Eyelet Ballet Flats have sparked some real admiration, with comments like “obsessed,” “so good,” and endless heart emojis flooding in. So, it’s safe to say they’re already a hit.
But as ever with Ganni, it’s the balance between everyday wearability and statement appeal that makes these shoes so covetable. Style them with simple jeans and a white tee to keep them the focal point of the outfit, or dress them up with something smarter—or do a high-low mix, just like the coolest Ganni girls.
Below, discover our favourite five Ganni Lace-Up Eyelet Ballet Flats colourways to snap up now—from sleek black in vegan leather to leopard printed denim.
