Adult "Fierce" Dance Sneaker

I love these shoes. They're amazing. I had ones before and they were amazing too. I wear them for teaching and for my work in the studio. They are very comfortable and look very well.

I like Capezio products and I followed the advice to buy one full size larger than my usual shoe size--worked perfectly. Also order arrived even faster than I expected!

First impressions was a ‘tight’ fitting, or runs small.

I purchased this for my granddaughter and I went up a whole size and it was way too small. Like three sizes too small. The shipping back was $10.00. Because of the issues with sizes of this shoe I repurchased at a company that pays for the return shipping.

I like most of the Capezio shoes and this was a good price. I always order 1 whole size up (wear 81/2, order 91/2)

At first I was hesitant but after other reviews i decided to buy them and no regrets. I'm 45 year old male and love to dance and researched on what I can get so I decided to come over to Discount Dance and it was a good experience. Fast delivery. I'm a size 9 and ordered size 11 and fits great.

I bought these for my daughter who is on her high school dance team. They are true to size and fit her perfectly. I definitely will be purchasing from you again.

Love the style & fit (runs small but I ordered 2 sizes bigger so they fit perfectly). The pair came with 2 sets of shoelaces (black & red) so you can change them for a different look. Danced with them already & they were comfortable. My only hope is that they won't get soft quickly (like my other Capezios of a different style) as it's not good support.

I purchased these years ago. They arrived as I was getting ready to go to dance class; I put them on; I danced for an hour and a half and they were immediately comfortable, supportive and provided no problems from then on! What a great experience; a great shoe. Years later, they are still very functional, but, needing some fresh support, I ordered a new pair---the exact same shoe, size - everything the same. Unfortunately, one shoe is slightly short in the toe box, resulting in foot cramping. Of course, thinking they needed to be "broken in," it became too late to exchange them. I've continued using the original pair, which I still love, but there's now a greater need for support. However, now I am unsure whether to purchase a half size larger or return to what I originally ordered, which was one size larger than street, on the chance that that 2nd pair was uniquely, poorly constructed. So if, when you put them on your feet, they are not right--immediately-- return them for a larger size. Like the old saying: when they were good, they were very very good and when they were bad, they were horrid...

I bought a pair of these dance sneakers a few years ago when I needed them for an audition. I'm waiting on another pair to come now because they're finally falling apart on me. In the past few years, I've used these shoes for everything from running to Zumba to dancing to just going to work. They're super comfortable, and the lack of hard plastic sole in the arch means you can bend and point your foot easily. The plastic on the toe allows you to hop onto pointe for short periods of time, making these shoes great for jazz or hip-hop pieces where you want to show off.

I have used this shoe for the past 6 years. This shoe is extremely comfortable, flexible and gives great support. I use them to teach dance (I teach 5-8 hrs a day 5 days a week ). I walk in them all day as I go from building to building on campus to teach. I also use them when I take class. All of my jazz students have them and they love them as well. Make sure you order them 1 size larger than your shoe size.

This runs really small. Add 2 sizes at least for a child.

I bought these shoes because they were recommended for dance team. I wore them for two years and they began showing signs of wear after one. They started to peel and the front part of the shoe started to come off after a while. They also gave me shin splints and didn't seem to perform as well as other shoes. They also were a lot less attractive than other jazz sneakers. Now I have Blochs and prefer them over these Capezios.

I bought these shoes over 14 months ago. They are still in good shape. They have so far been through 10 months of rehearsals and 6 stage performances, without any foot problems or the shoes coming apart.

I bought these for my son and he seems to like them well enough as far as comfort and flexibility go. But after only wearing them a couple of times, the entire front sole came off - it's glued on, not sewn. We've tried to re-glue with high quality rubber glue but it came off again. Buyer beware.

The arch is not high enough and they aren't very supportive on my feet. I have blisters! They aren't flexible and are hard to point your foot in. I've had them for over a year and they still haven't loosened up. I do color guard and dance, and they just get in the way.

My favorite dance sneakers. I wear them to all my hip-hop classes. I've had them for a year and a half, but after my first class, the top of the toes started chipping. I colored over it with black permanent marker and it's fine now! I highly recommend these! They are very comfortable.

Love these sneakers! I wear them especially for swing dancing but have worn them for hip hop classes as well. Great comfort of a sneaker but with the flexibility needed for a dancer.

I got a pair of these for Christmas, and I love them! They give great support and are really fun! It's nice to be able to dance down the street.

The label and accents on the white shoes is white with grey lettering. The black shoe is completely black with grey lettering on the label and accents. The shoe shown with the red accents and black lettering is the red option for the shoe.

In street shoes, I wear a 9.5 wide, and in pointe shoes I have to get XXXXX width, but with these sneakers, a size 10 works fine for me. I wouldn't say they're especially wide, but they're also not super narrow. - Lita (03/17/2013)
