Review on Bloch Annabella Ballroom Black Medium by Elizabeth Smith

I have this shoe in beige which I bought many years ago (15+) as a training shoe. I still use it. It has stood the test of time very well to be resoled several times. I needed a black low heel dance shoe so I ordered these. I knew it was small so I ordered 7 instead of 6.5. I always wear a 6.5 but I used to take a 7 in this shoe. It was the right choice, but these shoes are made wrong. The right shoe fits well. The left boot is loose because the straps are not properly fastened and are crooked. The finger hole on the left is larger than the finger hole on the right. The shoes just don't fit. Also, the instep of these sneakers is hard and uncomfortable. My old Blochs were comfortable when I first put them on and they still are. I'm disappointed. Bloch needs to pay attention to quality control. Also, this shoe is narrower than my previous Blochs and the quality and construction aren't as good. Too bad.
