The important things first. I'M NEW TO PALLOW DANCE. The shoes seemed a little expensive and I'm glad I bought them a little bigger because the shoes are very narrow. I have no idea if it should be like that or not, but it is. Please note this before placing an order. If you have a wide foot, you should look for a wide size if available. The shoes are nice and light and allow you to control how you glide across the dance floor.
