Review on ๐Ÿฉฐ Bloch Dance Women's Tap-Flex Leather Slip-On Tap Shoe for Enhanced Performance in Tap Dancing by Demetrius Young

Revainrating 3 out of 5

stretching by carrying

I am a dance teacher and have been doing Bloch tap dances for many years but have never used this style. I wear size 9 street shoes and ordered size 9 and they fit perfectly. After two years of rigorously teaching grades 3-4, one night a week, the shoes have stretched to the point where they are slipping off my heels and I can no longer use them for tapping unless it's for me is. small children who do not tap or jump quickly. I'm afraid they'll slip off when I'm doing pull ups, grabs or ankle rolls! Leather and fittings are in good condition. Comfort wise they were great and I like the arch flexibility for "jazzy" movements but the stretch is disappointing. I'll have to stick with Bloch's leather ties from now on. I wish I could downsize them by half a size instead and still use them in class.

Pros
  • Bloch percussive clapping
Cons
  • uncertain
