Revainrating 1 out of 5

The front panel of the left boot fell off after 6 uses!

I bought this pair of tap shoes less than a month ago. My daughter only wore it six times to dance class and the front tongue of her left shoe fell off during class. ATTENTION that the front taps are riveted and not screwed like the rear taps.

Pros
  • We never had the chance to use them but they were good quality.
Cons
  • Shoes may not provide adequate arch support.

True to size for me

The quality of the show is fantastic. I have read so many reviews saying to order large as the shoes run small, but I felt this was not true. I ordered and had to return as the shoes were huge. Overall very impressed with the quality! Great looking shoes.

Pros
  • They fit perfectly! He's so excited to go to dance class and put on his "loud shoes."
Cons
  • Shoes can be uncomfortable for people with sensitive feet.

Great shoes: my review

Based on the reviews, I ordered the shoes a half size larger than my son's shoes. They fit great and he was able to wear them to tap dancing this week.

Pros
  • Good shoes for beginners run a little small, but if you order half a size up, they fit perfectly.
Cons
  • Shoes can slip

Elegant, high-quality tap shoe

My son wears a size 11 shoe and I bought these slippers in a size 12 and they fit almost perfectly. They're a bit narrow, but his legs are narrow, so it worked. He loves them and I'm sure they will last until he outgrows them.

Pros
  • These shoes are very good but I found my daughter who normally wears a size 2 had to drop a full size down to a size 1. you oversize.
Cons
  • Shoes may not fit

Cons
  • Shoes may not be easy to clean

Wear after 10 min.

We received them tonight, my son wore them for 10 minutes and there was a huge scratch on the front. Please note that these are children's tap shoes and I think they will be more durable. upset

Pros
  • My son loved her
Cons
  • The crane can easily fall down

Works little. - my new rating

My son wears a size 8.5 for toddlers. I ordered a size 10 and it fits just right with no room to grow. I have to order new shoes within a month as his feet are growing.

Pros
  • Great little slippers, we will make and size them
Cons
  • The shoes may not have enough traction with the sole.

Perfect shoes for beginners!

Perfect shoes for beginners! They fit my son perfectly. I enlarged it to give it room to grow. Great quality and they will last a long time.

Pros
  • Great slippers at a fantastic price! They fit perfectly. I ordered a size up and they will last a while as they are a bit big.
Cons
  • Size may not match.

Great show, but size matters!

These are wonderful slippers! Great for my son's first dance lesson. The only problem was with the size. We order outdoor shoes 1.5 sizes larger, but actually only need 1 size larger. Leave them anyway as they will last longer.

Pros
  • Just what my daughter needed for her tap dance class. The sound is excellent, there are no complaints about the convenience.
Cons
  • Shoes can blister

Great, but order a size up

Very cute little dancing shoes. My child wears about a size 8 and this 9.5 fits just right. So I would say it's better to order at least one size up. They fit well, nicely packaged in the shoebox and make the perfect tap-tap sound.

Pros
  • My grandson loves his new tap shoes. After about 10 minutes, he complains that his legs hurt, so he takes them off.
Cons
  • The size is small and narrow. I recommend ordering a size or 2 larger.

My daughter loves shoes

Just great for my daughter. She has wide feet so the laces help her a lot. The shoes are comfortable even without socks. It's durable and stylish. Excellent purchase.

Pros
  • love love love
Cons
  • Shoes may not be durable

Excellent slippers - my new review

I bought this for my kid. It's a size 1 and I bought a 13.5 because I read it was meant to be snug but not tight. My son's size 1 shoes have room for a thumb at the top. So I guessed 13.5 and was right!

Pros
  • They are exactly like in the photo. Excellent quality. The shoes fit as expected. My daughter loves them!
Cons
  • Shoes may not be breathable enough

Great for beginners

I had to go back for a second size. They are narrow and small, especially in boys. I suggest increasing an integer size and preserving the width. Good shoes for beginners.

Pros
  • daughter loves her. Fits perfectly!
Cons
  • Shoes can be too tight at the ankle

Comfortable and close to regular shoes

Bought these as a second pair of dance shoes for my 2 year old little girl. I'm not sure if this is more for boys or girls. When she tried them on, she liked them, she immediately started dancing, it was clear that they were comfortable. I've had her wear them outside a few times to scrape the bottom, but they've never been too slippery to begin with. I can only recommend it and will buy it again.

Pros
  • Good quality
Cons
  • Shoes may not be suitable for people with flat feet.

Buy at least 1/2 size larger

Very nice and without defects. My son has a normal foot size and the shoes hardly fit. He wears child size 8. Bought 8.5. They're a bit narrow, but I've never bought tap shoes. For comparison, I took a picture of Gymboree size 8 for toddlers.

Pros
  • I'm so glad I walked in these shoes. My daughter has flat feet and narrow feet. They fit perfectly.
Cons
  • They were seriously the size of doll shoes...a 3 year old boy couldn't wear them. Returned.

Maybe 1/2 size bigger but not enough to return. I would order 1/2 size smaller for a PERFECT fit. For us being 1/2 taller means they survive the season and I will not be buying shoes during the show!

Pros
  • The shoes fit great! The width is sufficient.
Cons
  • I got. A size and a half too big and too small. I am sad because they are very cute.

Beautiful Slippers

These shoes have a great fit. I was skeptical about buying them for my 7 year old daughter but very hopeful. These did not disappoint us. She wears size 13 street shoes, mine are 13.5W. The wide ones worked well, although she doesn't have wide feet, she just doesn't like tight shoes and enjoys room for her toes. At first she was reluctant to swap out her patent leather maryjane shoes for oxfords, thinking they would look boyish, but one day she fell in love with them!

Pros
  • Brushed microfiber lining wicks moisture, cushioning foam insole, Achilles notch for heel comfort and padded heel for cushioning
Cons
  • Available in black only

Very cute shoes but wow they are small and tight!

great looking shoes for boys, looks good, will have to order again. Usually toddlers wear 7 (not wide), bought 8.5 wide to be safe and they are very tight! If it's wide I have no idea what the other size is, I think it's made for a person with a cane. Classes start tomorrow so he has to wear them this week, doesn't seem to care because of the clicking noise but he has to increase the width to 9.5. Order 2 sizes up and make sure you get a wide size!

Pros
  • artificial sole
Cons
  • boring packaging

A little narrow. Order a size or two up

I bought these for my 3 year old son for his dance class. We were new to this and couldn't find shoes for boys. However, no one can say that these shoes are "girly". I ordered them a size and a half larger than my normal shoe size and they have a little more room in his toes. The shoes are just narrow, especially if he has normal socks. (I'm still looking for thinner ones) Although they are really good quality and my boy loves them, I just wish he could make them a little easier to put on…

Pros
  • Sturdy sock
Cons
  • Not bad but...
