'1969' Ballet Flat | Black Stud

The 1969 Ballet Flat is a brand-new silhouette that represents our continuous exploration of the ballet flat category. It perfectly blends the nostalgic charm of a dancer’s staple with a rebellious, studded edge. Riffing on the success of our past studded favourites, this iteration is crafted from premium black leather and finished with bold silver hardware. Designed to cocoon the foot with its ruched collar and pink suede lining, the 1969 is a direct reflection of our philosophy of comfort in motion. It offers an artisanal energy and functional flexibility for your daily creative rituals.

• Lightweight and flexible
• Cushioned 5mm memory foam throughout the footbed (no removable insoles)
• Hand-stitched Morse code ‘Radical Yes’ branding on counter
• Crafted in small, intentional quantities 

The 1969 has been crafted to prioritise flexibility without sacrificing a sharp, architectural aesthetic. The upper is crafted from supple black leather, punctuated by silver-toned stud hardware. A standout feature is the intentionally wide toe box, allowing for a natural foot spread across its rounded toe shape, paired with a ruched elastic collar that creates a supportive "cocoon" around the foot. This unique construction ensures the 1969 remains a true reflection of our philosophy of comfort in motion, moving in total harmony with your gait.

Inside, the experience is defined by a plush ballet-pink suede lining, providing a soft, breathable touch against the skin. For effortless utility, we’ve integrated a functional pull tab at the heel, alongside our signature blue Morse code stitching—a subtle, artisanal nod to the Radical Yes philosophy. Underfoot, the 1969 features a technical outsole with an integrated tread for superior grip and durability on urban streets. This ultra-flexible foundation makes it an essential anchor for a trans-seasonal wardrobe, designed for the modern creative who values individual expression alongside practical ease. These flats are built for high-rotation wear and those who find joy in constant, unrestricted movement.
