Review on πŸ‘  Stylish and Comfortable: Capezio Women's Jr. Footlight T-Strap Dance Shoe - A Must-Have for Dancers by Sean Spence

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Shoes with good character

I would call these shoes standard Capezio quality (and size) so I'm not talking about the brand but the fit. The medium width works for me (similar to the XX width in the Grishko or Bloch X2, to use the pointe shoe analogy), but if you're a little wider, you'll want the wide version. The only issue with their fit compared to the Junior Spotlight I danced in as a kid is that the arch is higher and while not uncomfortable it doesn't bother me either. I have big bows so I need a bow insert for a few hours of rehearsals. The heel is a comfortable height but looks "more grown up" than the juniors so I bought these rather than just replacing my last ones. The T-strap makes the vamp higher than other models but I don't think it makes a difference as the toe box is very soft. The outsole is also quite flexible. Overall I'm enjoying this model so far and hope it brings lots of wear and tear!

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Doubtful
