This is our feminine athletic shoe. When you wear it you'll feel like a cat - nimble, surefooted, ready to spring into action - but with the slide- and spin-ability that suede soles give you. The heel is almost an inch so it looks like an ordinary shoe, but because the shock-absorbing sole is 1/4", combined your heel is only a half inch off the ground - which really helps your stability. It is so cute and feminine that you can wear it with a skirt despite the fact that it keeps you low to the ground.
The sole is flexible to help you feel the floor. They look close enough to a dress shoe to wear with skirts, but act like an athletic sneaker. They're great swing dance shoes because they provide "dress shoe looks" with the total comfort you need in a shoe that's going to be on the hardwood all night. About
Suede Soles: The
red version is what you might call a "dark cherry red" -
"lipstick" or "fingernail polish red" also
comes to mind. |

SIZING TIPS:
We've
found - by trying these on countless dancers - that these fit
a half to a full size small. So if you fit in between two sizes;
say 6-6.5 it's possible you'll fit a 7 - but if you're a solid,
say 6.5 you may fit a 7.5. Because they have a buckled strap
across the ball of the foot, you can cinch them up for a custom
fit. For international sizing we recommend that you use our Sizing Chart
to help you make a decision.
INSOLE:
The
foam insole is nice and soft, but is thin enough that you could
easily add your orthotics to these if you wanted.
