Beautiful and comfortable for my teen! 7.5
Perfect shoe for any stage performance, looks professional and comfortable for my 16 year old.My daughter's foot is very narrow, but went with the regular size and up a half size from street sneakers.Perfect fit, the original width was narrow enough.

I LOVE these shoes!
I purchased these same shoes over a year ago and I bought this pair to replace the pair I've been wearing. I wear these shoes constantly, (8-10 hours a day) and I make it a point to walk up and down the stairs a lot and I've even exercised in these shoes. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever purchased and I've tried many.I'm over 50 years old with bunions and a little arthritis and I can wear these shoes for hours and hours with no discomfort for the first time in my life. I bought the tan and black pairs that I wear with all my office clothes. I bought them about 1/2 size larger and put cushions in the bottom of them for added comfort.The strap is a feature I'll never do without again. Takes a minute to strap it but as active as I am, the shoes stay put on my foot. I'm also amazed how long they last with very little wear and tear. The heels on previous shoes I've bought wore down quickly but these have lasted for over a year and I'm only replacing because they are a little scratched.The new replacement shoes I bought are the same size, color, etc., but I think they're a little snug because I'm used to the little more stretched out 1+ old version of the shoe I've been wearing. I"m hoping they'll stretch /mold to my foot as I wear them over the next few days for the first time, and will be fine after that.Thank you for these shoes and I'm just sorry it took me so long to find them.

Comfortable, picking size is confusing
Comfortable with a nice heel height could spin easily but without feeling like you were walking on ice the whole night. There was a bit of pressure on the top of the big toe. Chart says that the brand size 10 was equivalent to US size 11 (assuming that is street shoe size 11) my normal street shoe US size is a 10. I ordered a 10.5 brand size which by the chart is equivalent to an 11.5 US size. So the sizing runs very small.

Very Recommendable. Comfortable and True to Size
These shoes were comfortable enough to wear for eight hours at work. They are a bit slippery on carpet. As others have said, the leather stretches nicely. If you worry about bunions, these shoes might be good for you because of that stretchiness.I didn't need to break them in. They look Fab. Can wear them in an office setting or out on the town. But are they really leather? Well, they do scuff easily. Must baby these shoes.

The name brand is worth it!
After trying and returning three other off-brands of dance/character shoes in an attempt to save a few dollars, I decided I might as well give up and spring for a name brand -- and then I found this style, which was around the same price point as the knockoffs, and is MUCH better quality!I have wide feet and also wear orthotic inserts for absurdly high arches, so I ordered a half size up from what I'd normally wear. The toe box in the Wide width is perfect for my feet, with no squeezing or pressure. For reference, the 10W measures about 3.75" across the widest point of the ball of the foot (3.5" sole, but the leather has some give to it). The flat notch at the back of the heel avoids putting undue pressure on the Achilles tendon. Although the footbed is contoured and would probably be fine for someone with flat feet, there isn't a lot of internal arch support for those of us with higher arches. Fortunately, the sides of the shoes are high enough to accommodate inserts (my orthotics are elevated about 1.2" at the arch and they fit fine in these without showing above the leather upper, as you can see in the photos). The leather soles are scored but still very slick, so if you aren't using these for dance where you need low friction movement, you'll probably want to add some adhesive traction pads.Bonus: They double as attractive business casual/dress shoes, and the low heel makes them comfortable enough for all-day wear. The first time I wore them, someone complimented my cute footwear!

Sizing Issues with the Shoe Itself Prevented Me from Keeping
If only the length were correct, I'd be thrilled with these shoes. I ordered half a size larger than my usual size. I normally wear 9.5 Narrow and ordered 10 Narrow. The width was perfect in front and back, but on both shoes the top of the toe pressed down on my large toe toenail so that even though I was sitting with no pressure on the shoes, they were uncomfortable and gradually started to hurt. I'm calling that too short. Unfortunately, they don't offer a 10.5 Narrow. Even if they did, the width was perfect in the 10 Narrow, and so I'd assume it would be a little wide in the 10.5 Narrow. I'd be willing to risk it and order it if they had it, but they don't. So...I'm searching for a sandal I can use year round, perhaps having to order a shorter shoe to get the narrow width. Also considering a custom made shoe. The other downside to this shoe is that it is faux leather and not leather. Well, it's inexpensive for a shoe that comes in narrow, so I can't make that a complaint, but as an adult and not a child who will grow out of the shoe, I'd much rather have a leather shoe. If I did, I'd explore stretching the toe box to make enough room to keep them. I really love the fit except for at the toes, and I'm thrilled they come in narrows, but not thrilled that while I consistenly wear 9.5 Narrows in other shoes, even the 10 Narrow is too short and there is no 10.5 Narrow. I'd say get the sizing down. I called the company headquarters about the sizing, but the person on duty after hours really had no idea and tried to read me a script without really answering the question. They need a fit expert on duty or at least to call back on the next business day and also the ability to point the customer to stores near them and stores that carry narrows or other specific product features needed. The person on duty claimed she couldn't search except by single zip codes and referred me to San Francisco though I live in Los Angeles. She told me to go to the nearest store to try on shoes for size, but she couldn't tell me which stores carried narrows. Really, I think the shoes are probably very good dance shoes, but they are inaccessible to me due to sizing issues.

Kinderschuh?
Der Schuh ist zu klein! Ist der für Kinder gedacht? Ansonsten super Schuh für Folkloretanz.

Magnifiques chaussures de danse !
Confortables, solides (les coutures et surtout le talon !!!) et de très belle qualité de conception. Un petit bémol sur les attaches en métal dont la partie centrale à tendance à se desserrer (un coup de pince pour mieux écraser l'anneau et sécuriser la fermeture, et le tour est joué !)Ma fille utilise cette marque depuis le début, et change de taille sans changer de marque !Pour la taille, prendre une pointure à une pointure et demi de plus que les chaussures de ville : achetez du 35 si vous faites un 34 en chaussures de ville !

Way too small
I usually wear 36, but these shoes made my feet hurt as hell :( after some dancing I had pain in my toes for the next couple of days!

Great shoes, but make sure that you size up
I initially bought these shoes because they were the only ones that would arrive on time, but was glad that I had. I already own the higher "kickline" style, but needed something that I could sustainably wear for longer periods, so went for a lower heel and half a size bigger than the pair I already had. It is really important to size up by at least half a size (my originals) but ideally a whole one (this pair), as, like all dance shoes, these are a very neat fit and because they have a manmade upper they have no stretch.

Comfortable
Really comfortable, wore them for a full day and my feet didn’t hurt at the end of it. Love the quality.
