Review on πŸ‘Ÿ So Danca Stretch Canvas Light Girls' Shoes: The Perfect Athletic Footwear by Sirryan Bloodworth

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Light, flexible, confident

*Last update* Now officially my favorite shoes. If I'm dancing full time a pair will last me about 6-8 weeks before they start leaking (after that I will continue to use them in class but not on stage of course). I had to fiddle with sizing a bit, but since I found the exact size I need, even on the new pair of SD26s, the elastic no longer digs into my heel unless my ankle is swollen (I'm treating one sprain , jaaaa -.- ). Good ballet flats should almost be forgotten when dancing, and So Danca achieved that goal for me. The SD16 are lightweight and breathable, fit my foot and don't turn into a wet mess in the middle of a show (I sweat like a racehorse y'all). However, different feet are different shoes, according to YMMV. To give you an idea, my feet are quite narrow, extremely flexible, with high arches, very high instep, short talus, long second toe and large taper from second to fifth toe. My ankle joints (like all my joints) are hypermobile. Someone with a longer talus may need a deeper heel cup (Bloch Synchrony and Pro Elastic models can be good options). Someone with a lower instep will probably be happy with a much wider range of shoes than I am and may find this model too low. even at the end of the day in my Achilles tendon. They could become my new favorite shoes. Upgrade to 5 stars but be aware they may need a break in period. First Rating: I like them almost as much as Bloch's Synchronys. They are lightweight, very stretchy and look great. The fit is very precise - they don't dangle in a few turns. I wear them every day for the first week and a half of company practice and rehearsals and am very happy with them. The only downside (no pun intended) is that after a few hours they dig into your Achilles tendon. ' Yearn a bit. It's probably a question of how my feet and ankles are made. It's not bad enough to cause injury, but it makes them my second choice instead of my first choice. Also, it's a great choice for dancers of all levels.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
