I wore these when I was younger and went to a RAD school. They have a great quality, the suede sole makes them great for character. The short heel also makes a difference. Overall, I have fond memories of dancing in these as a child.

I ordered the 13.5 for my daughter as this is her normal size and they were way too big, had to return. Ordering 1/2 size down in this size range is recommended.

Richard04/18/2008 Portland, Or,A BEAUTIFUL SHOE !
We use these shoes daily for adults and children in our Russian Character Ballet. The pink strap is almost invisible with pink ballet tights. As a professional school, we only use the best quality gear, and these shoes are what all of our students wear.

We use these for character in Ballet, and sometimes they're hard to bend when pointing the foot. Also, they tend to squeak while turning on any floor, very distracting.

I like the whole idea of the shoe, it's just the pink strap looks a little tacky and takes away from the costume. Especially if you wear them with an all-black outfit. It can give an unwanted 'POP'!

Hi! Are the Girl's "Academy" Character Shoes also RAD approved.
We believe they are, however its best to check with your dance school for verification - DDS Customer Service (10/18/2012)
