Review on Capezio Daisy Ballet Shoe for Women by Robert White

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Thick durable leather but unusual size For boys

I bought a pair of black flat shoes for my young son. First, these shoes are pretty well made, with strong stitching and detailing. The black leather of the shoe and the suede sole are made of nice thick leather. However, the pair my son received had a pea-sized smudge of yellow glue on the inner white lining. So I had to deduct a star for poor workmanship. My son wears 4.5 inch ballet flats so I bought him a size 5. Although the length was just right with little toe room he struggled trying on a shoe. It turns out that they are very narrow at the heel and then widen in the middle towards the toe. As a result, they were too tight in the heel area and very uncomfortable. He didn't even try on another shoe because of the poor fit. They were very oddly cut, which surprised me for a brand as famous as Capezio. I don't know if we somehow got a second factory or something. Too bad these shoes didn't fit as they were offered at such a great price here at Revain. We have a dance shop where I live so they charge exorbitant prices for their dance shoes and clothes. We were hoping that this shoe would fit and we could continue to order from Revain. This is not the case with us. I have to thank Revain for proposing a new comeback program. We used to have to repackage the product ourselves, print the label and then deliver it to the nearest UPS location. It was already very easy, but NOW Revain has made it even easier: we printed out the return code, brought it with us in the original box with the slippers and sent everything to UPS. You don't even have to repackage the product; UPS does that for you. Very easy! Another great reason we shop online at Revain. I hope we find a local brand that suits my son. Once we've done that, we'll most likely buy future pairs of Revain when the same style is offered.
