The sizes listed for women were way off! I wear a 6.5 which they say is a 4.5 in men's but it was about 2 inches shorter than my foot. It must've actually been a 4.5 in women's or something. I would say it's at least 2 sizes smaller than what they say!

I just ordered and received my new Capezio Premiere Rayow Tap shoes a week ago. I am a huge fan of Capezio CG09's. I currently own several pairs due to the fact that I teach and take many tap classes each week. These new shoes are a different style from my other CG09's; they are styled s little more like an athletic shoe than a street shoe. The leather uppers in these new shoes are much softer than my old CG09's and my new shoes have a foot friendly soft sock lining. My old shoes are definitely stiffer feeling and had a break-in period which was hard on my feet. These new shoes feel like they will be much easier on my feet during the break-in period. I receive a lot of compliments regarding my tap sounds when dancing in my Capezio CG09's. These one screw Rayow Taps are the best. The ordering process through Zappos was fast and efficient. I highly recommend both Capezio dance products and Zappos.

I bought this shoe for my daughter who is in tap and she just loves them. They are very comfortable and fell like they were made for her feet. We were glad that we took the advice and ordered a 1/2 size up.

Zappos.com is the best! How can anyone say otherwise? I ordered the Capezio Premiere Rayow Tap shoe before noon and it arrived the next day by dinner time. It's cyber technology at its best. I have no idea how it works but it does! The shoes are totally awesome, soft, and flexible and are sure to stretch just a bit, I think. Order a size larger if you're in-between sizes. Otherwise, just order your normal shoe size. Remember, these will stretch because the ultra soft leather must grow a little bit as you tap dance and your feet perspire! These are the best tap shoes I've ever had and I'm in my late 60's. I've been tappin' since I was a kid. I've only bought shoes from Zappos, but I think it's the best! Customer service is second to none!

Absolutely no complaints about this tap shoe. A plus, which might seem minor to other buyers, but with my last taps, I immediately had to go out and purchase new laces. The laces that came with my former shoes were flimsy and not long enough. No problem with these. Laces are sturdy and lengthy. They fit great and needed no tuning after the initial wearing. Of course, can't say enough about Zappos' return policy. Loved that I was able to purchase two different sizes and decide which size fit me better. Simply returned the second pair and reimbursement was timely, as promised. Can't ask for easier shopping.

I love the way these shoes look. They\'re well made and neat. The only thing is, I ordered them by accident because I didn\'t realize they were genuine tap shoes, and I don\'t need tap shoes. If they make this style without taps, I\'d be the first to buy them, as it is now, I have to return them, I can\'t go to work sounding like a tap dancer.

I've been taking adult tap dance classes for 3 yrs. My tap/jazz shoes weren't comfortable so I decided to purchase some shoes just for tap. I researched tap shoes for several months before I decided on the Capezio Premier Rayow Tap shoe and it is one of the best choices I've ever made. My feet love, love, love this shoe! It is very comfortable and the toe box is just right. I ordered my size according to the sizing chart and it was a perfect fit. I would highly recommend this shoe. Also, I received these shoes from Zappos promptly. I couldn't be happier.

They were in nice condition and arrived promptly. At the time that I ordered, the description didn't indicate how to accommodate for sizing. I searched for Men's tap shoes. Appears that they are women's sizing. I ordered a 10. He'd probably need 11-1/2 or 12.

I can see why this tap shoe has gotten stellar reviews! The shoes are excellent, but tiny! The sizes are in women's, not men's (which fortunately another reviewer mentioned). Still, I ordered the 4.5 and they were too small for my freakishly tiny feet. I'm ordering them in 5 and 5.5 to see which is best. Nevertheless, I can tell these are keepers! A vast improvement over my last pair!

Bought these for my 8 year old son. He loves them. He wears a size 4.5 regular shoe but took a 7.5 size in this tap shoe.
