Still small at a size larger. Comes with an extra sole but no information about what it is or what's it for or when to put it on and how and if you need a shoemaker. Quite perplexing.

Like the Capezio shoe in similar style, these fit well in the foot but were too short in the toe bed.

These would be great for most dancers, but unfortunately I have hard to fit and sensitive feet. The shoes were very small! I usually wear 7 1/2 or 8, but I ended up needing a 9. The wide width was fine, but the shoe itself was very hard and so I returned the shoes worried they would rub and irritate my feet bones.

Way too tight and I ordered a size up. Very pretty, though.

I had read the reviews & ordered accordingly-I thought. I usually wear a 5 1/2 so started with the 6. Returned that for the 6 1/2. Even tried the 7. Sometyabout the toe box didn’t work for me. I was disappointed because this is a good and stylish shoe in soft leather. I’m glad I checked it out and -as always-this company excels in customer service. Never a hassle and ever accommodating!

These would have been perfect IF they were truly a wide width but they were NOT.
And since they are not leather, there is no flexibility.
PLEASE make this shoe in a wider width!!!

I bought these to replace my Capezios that have worn out after many years of dancing in them thinking these would be comparable. They do have a low heel, soft foot bed, and nice ankle strap. But the toe bed is so hard and stiff there is no way these won't rub. Returning them.

Originally ordered 9w hoping that reviews were wrong, but they were not. Retruned and sized up to 10.5W for a better fit. Order at least 1 to 1.5 sizes higher than your normal dress shoe. Not great arch support, but can be modified with inserts. Hell height is great. I would say these look better than they feel, but I am picky about dress shoes.

Have found that Blochs run small. So ordered a full size larger than I usually wear. Length is right, but too narrow. So exchanging for a Wide.

A little too narrow in the toe box for my comfort and didn't want to size up more than I did for arch support's sake. Character shoes are great for dancing the night away but you have to make sure they are comfortable for your foot beforehand. This shoe has a classic good look that would have worked well had it fit.

I'm keeping this item, but wonder what the black sole shaped plastic pieces are for. I held them up to the bottom of the shoes and there are just about the same size and shape. In fact I wonder if holding them up to the bottom the shoes has created the black marks that are on the sloes of the shoe. When trying on the shoes, I only walked on carpet, so I question where the black marks have come from.

First off, how are you gonna send someone some shoes where the rubber soles & heels weren’t attached? I got these shoes for a wedding and they arrived on time but I can’t wear them due to what I just stated. I know now to just buy my dress shoes from an actual brick & mortar store, so that I can actually look at them to see the actual condition they are in, —which, I actually ended up doing was going to an actual store to buy another pair of shoes. And also as well as feel the materials and inspect them, and try them on and walk in them. I was highly disappointed in what I received and I will be returning them.

Not only does it run short but the WIDE is not very wide across the ball and toes nor does the very hard tapered toe box appear likely to stretch with wear.

I am Bill’s wife. I ordered an 11 because I usually wear a 10. Super tight in the toes and so uncomfortable. Maybe a 12 would have worked, but the occasion has passed and they’re in the donation bin.
They have the appearance of dance shoes, but I could not have danced in them.

Bought my reg, shoe size (8) although in open toe dance shoes I wear a71/2 or 8. I could barely get my toes into the shoe w/o crumping my toes and could not stand up. I returned them for an 81/2 and these were still to short in the toes and the general fit of the shoe was to wide so they had to be returned. To bad because the heel height was perfect and they had leather full soles. I must say the service was triple A and I will use them again.

These are way smaller than they are marked. I ordered up a full size based on reviews and still could barely get my foot into it let alone walk. People with wide feet like to dance too, just can't find the shoe manufacturers that makes them wide enough for us to wear.

OH MY GOD - SHOE SIZES ARE A REAL ACTUAL MEASURABLE THING - your size 12 was about a 10.5 which i know because that's there's someone in my house that's a 10.5. i'm really an 11.5 and order women's shoes in a 12 so i can wear socks and not have pinched toes and i couldn't even get this thing on my feet. please size your shoes correctly and stop wasting our time.
