My daughter hasn't worn these to dance yet because we just got them, but she loves how they look and fit so far. The bow to add is a great touch. I'm upset that I also ordered ballet shoes, the website said they were in stock, but afterwards I was notified they weren't available so I was refunded for them. We're still waiting on ballet shoes and she's had three classes so far.

SHOE IS NOT WHAT'S PICTURED HERE
This was my first time shopping at Discount Dance Supply, and it will probably be my last. As a former dancer myself, I have purchased many a shoe in my time, and I came here for tap shoes for my daughter. The package I received was in bad shape and these shoes were not well packed. The shoebox is torn and smashed in. Though the shoes were not damaged, they are not the patent black leather pictured here. The item numbers on the box match with this shoe. These problems aside, the shoes fit my daughter well and luckily patent is not required for her class. However, these details matter at higher class levels and you would think a company like this would get that.

My 5-year-old loves these, especially the detachable bows. We had to return and buy them half a size bigger, and now they are perfect. She has wide feet and the W is a good width. They seem durable and well-made.

ORDER THE SIZE OF YOUR NORMAL SHOES
After reading the other reviews that you should order a size larger than your child's normal shoe size -- don't do it! They were way too big. I ended up sending it back and ordering her standard shoe size, which fits just perfect.

CUTE AND DURABLE
i guessed on the size, choosing one size larger than my daughters street size. they fit her perfectly, although i should of ordered the narrow fit. the Medium width size actually fit a "medium" foot while normally a medium shoe is usually quite narrow. the bows that are shown in the picture are clip-on's and after only one dance rehearsal with my daughter, both bows had come loose, fallen off and were lost! my daughter was devastated. would of been nice if the bows were actually sewn on the shoes.
the straps are Velcro; which worked out super great for my daughters quick-change on recital night! although the price is high, these shoes are worth it for a lover of Tap!

This shoe is great. My daughter loves them. There is a soft cushion inside, which my daughter says makes it very comfortable. She loves the velcro because they don't come untied in the middle of class (or recital). Highly recommend this shoe!! I ordered this shoe a half size larger so they would last longer. They don't feel too big because the adjustable velcro allows you to tighten the shoe for a more secure fit.

what does "N, M and W" refer to in the sizing chart?
The letters refer to the width of the shoe -Narrow, Medium, and Wide. - DDS Customer Service (08/30/2013)
N = Narrow width for slender feet
M= Medium width for normal width feet
W= Wide width for a more wider width foot - French (12/11/2013)
The bows are removable, they clip on. - DDS Customer Service (09/28/2012)
Yes. the bows are removable. unfortunately, after only one rehearsal night my daughter lost BOTH bows from her shoes. they must have come off while dancing on stage and didn't notice until we got home. she was devastated. - French (12/11/2013)
