Allbirds, the popular brand known for its comfortable and stylish merino wool shoes, has finally launched its take on the ballet flat—the Tree Breezers. Made from an eco-friendly eucalyptus tree fiber blend material, these flats are the perfect travel shoe.

Allbirds Tree Breezers Review:

Price and Where to Buy: The Tree Breezers are available on Allbirds’ website for $95.

How the Allbirds Tree Breezers Rate:

Usefulness: 10/10. The Tree Breezers look like a stylish, classic ballet flat, but are made from a eucalyptus tree fiber material that keeps the shoes breathable and your feet cool. The flats slip on and off easily, and have a knit collar that keeps the shoes snug on your feet as you walk. On the inside, a SweetFoam sole absorbs shock and provides bounce and support, so you can walk far without pain in these. The sole insole is lined with Allbirds’ signature merino wool fabric, to provide the moisture-wicking and odor-resistance that you’re used to in other Allbirds styles.
Durability: 10/10. The Tree Breezers are machine-washable and will withstand many miles.
Portability: 10/10. Lightweight and foldable, these flats will fit in any carry-on.
Style: 10/10. Available in a wide range of fun colors, the Allbirds will match any outfit.

Final Verdict: The Tree Breezers are everything you love about Allbirds, packaged in a stylish ballet flat.
