An article in THE ATLAS HEART addresses the question of the value of Tieks which are ballet flats.
They are not inexpensive so the author named Mimi went about evaluating their
use versus cost. Remember that she travels around the world so her priorities
are durability and ease of packing among other features.
The text begins with the highlights of the author’s experiences with the flats. The
first is that many people say the flats do not need to be broken in while the
writer found for her, they needed some time to be totally comfortable.
Tieks do not provide great foot support so if a person needs footwear that provides
needed help for their feet then they are probably not the best choice. A third
point is that flats only come in one shape, although this brand offers a
variety of colors and materials like Italian leather. The author travels around
the world so the fact the flats are foldable is a great feature.
Now to the money. A pair runs anywhere from $185 to $305. This may seem costly but
the writer points out she has had her pair for six years and counting. They are
durable. A person needs to look at the cost prorated over the years of wear.
Since the brand is an online store, one can only purchase them via their website, Boutiek. However, an individual
can also buy and sell second-hand or new shoes on social media platforms like
Facebook and Poshmark.
The CEO of this wonderful company that produces Tieks is Kfir Gavrieli. He has a
MBA from Stanford University. Tieks operates solely online, and it is
the source for ballet flats in various colors for any potential buyer.
Kfir Gavrieli is not just a CEO. He also is a strong believer in philanthropy
through the Gavrieli Foundation. Its purpose is to provide microloans to women
caught in poverty throughout the world. The funds are designed to lift these
individuals out of their current situation. He is the classic example of an
entrepreneur and wants other people to take that step. Visit this page for
