Useless

Well I'm not sure how Capezio is getting away with it but they are selling an almost completely useless ballet shoe. I am a professional ballet dancer of 5 years and wanted to try out a different brand of ballet shoe. For me Sanshas are too thick and not long enough in the toe area, Blochs have a weird sole that I don't particularly like...anyway the point is I tried these shoes out. They are a let down even at $15 a pair. The fabric is hardly canvas it feels and picks up dirt like a light cotton. The leather of the sole is barely connected and has an uneven surface. They are cut longer in the heel and shorter in the toe, as if that weren't enough the elastic barely keeps the things on. You have to stretch the straps to near breaking point in order for it to be tight enough to hold up the shoe that is literally falling apart around my foot from day one.

I literally DESTROYED these shoes in the span of 2 months at a four month intensive. BOTH pairs wore out exactly two months! The stitching quality is cheap and not very good. AND DON'T TRY TO JET GLUE ANY PART OF THEM BACK TOGETHER! That is if you want to do men's classes barefooted...

I got my first pair about 6 months ago, but I really wasn't on them as much as I am now. They last but not very long. Nice shoes other wise. Love the control on turns and just really nice shoes.

Great shoes that enhances arch. But weak
Rating: 4
I've tried almost every pair of ballet shoes & these are one of the best looking shoes. They are extremely soft & easy to point, enhancing your arch. It almost feels as though you're wearing socks.
However, the fabric is not durable & tears easily. It can rip easily when you spin on a sticky/stiff floor.
Other than the durability, these are great shoes for class/performance :)
PS: if you want shoes that look good & last longer, go with Leo's Airabesque.

Don't like these...14 year old's review
Rating: 2
I went to a drama camp where I would dance for about 3 hours a day 5 days a week. My friend gave me a pair of Bloch leather split-sole jazz shoes in the beginning because they were too small for her. I got these shoes for performance only, so I wore the jazz shoes for two weeks. During tech week we were required to wear our performance shoes, and I did not like these at all. They ran a bit small once I tied them, the inside pad bunched up underneath my toes with one day's use so it hurt to jump and land, and the cloth had holes on the outside after two days. I ended up switching back to my practice intended jazz shoes. I DO NOT recommend these. Buy some leather dance shoes!

Great shoe- good turn control
Rating: 5
I bought a pair back in March 07 and I love them. The extra width was a necessity for me. I found that my turns improved with less friction and they are very comfortable and wear well. In the past, I have found that many cloth shoes either wear out quickly or the canvas is so thick, they are not very comfortable and it is hard to feel the floor.
While my old pair are still usable, I am getting another pair so I can work them in.

This shoes is nice. I've been using it since February and by today, they are in good condition. It'll take the form of your foot.

Very comfortable-hugs the foot nicely, easy to point with. Do not use for exams, it will be considered cheating.
