Ripped after one class!
Rating: 1
I normally wear Sansha Pros size 7m, but I hated that they felt wide and were bulky underneath the ball of the foot (due to the folding of the fabric). So I decided to try these ballet slippers hoping that they fit better (I bought my regular street size 7m). When I first got them, they came with large dry glue spots all over both slippers, but I didn't want to have to pay return shipping so I figured I would just try them out. However, after taking just one ballet class, the side seams on the slippers started ripping. Now, all four side seams of the outer canvas layer have ripped. They do fit narrower than the Sanshas and the cut is lower on the foot which makes my arch look better. But considering they couldn't even make it through one ballet class, I wouldn't recommend these.

Really Good Shoe!
Rating: 4
I loved these shoes! I got these for a competition and found them wonderful. They made my arch look WAY better than they did in canvas shoes. The only reasons I gave them 4 stars was because they fit pretty tight (so I suggest a size bigger) and the seams on the sides ripped but that doesn't really affect your dancing. They don't really get holes near the toes though which is where my friends that have different brands get. Overall, I really like these shoes! :)

I'm NOT happy with this shoe at all. I have worn them twice and the seam is coming apart to both shoes. The fit is good but the shoe is poorly made.

These Ballet slippers become dirty really fast, and are made out of poor quality material. =( My daughter was disappointed in what looked to be a good ballet slipper.

Great

I loved these shoes! I got them right before a performance, but I outgrew them in a couple of months. They fit right to my foot, the problem I had was that I have a really high arch and they were a little baggy, but that was it.

These are really good shoes.
These are great if you're switching from stretch inserts. Before these I had WearMoi's and I don't notice the difference! Great shoes!

Nothing fit
Rating: 2
I have normal feet size 9-10 street, and a size 10 absolutely murdered my feet. It pushed my big toe in so much that it went numb. The next size up was too big. I've had this problem with a lot of shoes though. Other than that, it was baggy at the arch and the heel didn't fit properly. They're well made shoes and the cushioning is nice but the fit is pretty bad.

I love these shoes. I have very narrow feet and they fit perfectly, much better than the "Juliet" which was very wide. I wear 61/2-7 shoe and have these in a 7 and they fit perfectly. (I think I am the only one who didn't need bigger than street). Very comfortable, I highly recommend this shoe.

Best Shoes I Have Ever Tried!!
Rating: 5
They are the best shoes I have ever tried! They're VERY comfortable and soft and light and easy to dance in. I have purchased 5 pairs in the last 2/3 years and I simply LOVE THEM!!! This is a VERY GOOD BUY!

Awesome!

I got these shoes from the local dance supply store because I needed split sole slippers for ballet last summer. They fit my right foot really well but for some reason the fabric kept bunching up on my left toes. I think this is because my feet might just be slightly different sizes. Other than that, I have no complaints.

Too small maybe

I wear a size 8 street shoe. I bought an 8.5 slipper and it is snug. Fits the foot prettily but I'm worried it is too snug.

Very comfortable but they got holes quickly. That may be because I use them so much though! About 2 hours a day, every day or so.

They run small!
Rating: 4
I haven't done ballet since I was small, but our pointe class this year does a pretty extensive bar warm-up flat foot, so I thought I'd get some ballet shoes. The Cobras look great and are very soft. I like the way they hug my arch. HOWEVER, they do run small, which is a pain when you are ordering online and have to return them. Order 1/2 a size bigger than street and you should be fine, though. I haven't had them long enough to know how they wear.

Very Comfortable
Rating: 4
I have to say, these shoes are exceptionally comfortable and fit pretty well. There is a little extra room in the heel, which can get a little uncomfortable, but good for the most part. Only thing is, the last time I danced ballet was two years ago when I danced for four years, but back then I could fit in children's shoes. So when I got these, I was a little confused with the straps because this is the first time I've worn adult ballet shoes! Overall though, very good shoes.

These are so awesome!

I love these shoes because they are light and conform to my foot better than leather ones. The only problem is they tear after awhile and my whole insole came out. But I have had them for almost a year and they have worked great!

Very good!
Rating: 5
I bought these shoes for a play because they were very light pink, almost white, and found myself wearing them to ballet class afterwards. They are thin and allow you to feel the floor better than any other ballet slipper that I have had. They do get dirtier faster than some other shoes but I just washed mine in the washing machine and let them air dry and they looked so much better. They also hug my foot and show off my nice arches without bunching and blend in with my light pink tights. Great value too!

Sooo good!!!

I love these shoes! They really flatter my strong high arches. Unlike my old canvas Sanshas, which I hated, these made my feet look more narrow, instead of big and boxy. They are sooo comfortable! I highly recommend this shoe!

These shoes are great! Very soft. I've been dancing in them for about 6 1/2 hours a week for two months and they seem to be holding up fine. The lining does bunch up, but I just glued it back down. I have no problems turning in them on marley or wood. I did have to go up about half a size, because I have long toes, and sometimes they get a little baggy. Overall, I really like these shoes.

Not a bad shoe, because they are very soft. When I had bursitis in my metatarsal, I almost had to stop dancing, but I found these shoes and was able to keep going because they are so soft. They don't have any thick pleats either. My feet also don't slip around inside and my tights don't get bunched. The worst part was when you pointe your foot, the metatarsal gets all rolly and wavy, making your pointe look a lot less pointed than your feet really are.

Comfortable but...
Rating: 3
These were very comfortable and great for dancing on wood floors, but when I danced in them on stage floors, or on the trap we use for color guard, the soles ripped out and so did the front part of the toe...

Comfortable, but lining bunches up
Rating: 4
They're lightweight, very soft, not a lot of fabric in the pleats, so they feel good in releve. The inside lining near the toes has started to bunch up; I had to cut it off. Otherwise they're great!
