Start a big new review in my mind

My daughter is a size 8 so we chose a size 9 to give her some room to grow. 9 are very tall I would say closer to 10. We kept her because she will have them for a long time as she has plenty of room to grow. The little clip on the bow is cute but it doesn't stay in place and has fallen off a couple of times.

Pros
  • The lightweight design allows freedom of movement and prevents fatigue
Cons
  • Children may find it difficult to put them on and take them off by themselves

Dirty footprint in a shoe

This product arrived with dirty footprints on the inside of the right shoe. Very disappointed. The product is as described except for the dirty shoes. My daughter tried on other shoes and they fit well. She wears size 13 street shoes and I ordered size 13 and they fit. If I order again I'll probably go a size up so she has room to grow and wear longer.

Pros
  • I took a size up and they fit my 6 year old perfectly.
Cons
  • Some children's feet may be uncomfortable

Poor packaging, no bow

Arrived in an Amazon box but the box the tap shoes were placed in was too small, there was no lid and one of the bows was missing on arrival. They only came with a loop clip. They are also too big.

Pros
  • These shoes are great but they are way narrower than I expected. I strongly recommend going up a size. The quality is excellent.
Cons
  • These shoes were definitely used and we didn't get nods.

Uncomfortable buckle

My daughter's dance class is tap so after reading the reviews I ordered 4 different sizes to try. She wears a 7.5 to 8 for toddlers - and the 8.5 fit best BUT the way the strap attached to her foot was chafing her foot and she HATED it! Not sure if it has a high arch that caused the buckle to hurt. Definitely everything is returned and I hope we find a pair she likes.

Pros
  • Shoes fit my daughter perfectly
Cons
  • More expensive than other options for children's shoes

Great for my 2 year old

These are high quality dance shoes. I can't comment on comfort or arch support as my 2 year old doesn't understand these concepts. But they seem to be of great quality... and when I danced as an adult I loved this brand.

Pros
  • High quality insole provides extra cushioning and support.
Cons
  • The toe box may be too tight for some kids

Arrived used/dirty/damaged

I don't know what happened here, but the shoes got dirty. (I bought new ones) One bow fell off in the box, the other is nowhere to be found.

Pros
  • My daughter loves them, one size up!
Cons
  • May not be suitable for children requiring orthopedic insoles.

Good for bulging wide legs

If your child has a wide foot, choose the same size. My 5 year old wears 12 inch tap shoes but has wide feet. Ordered 12.5" wide and it's large. Now ordered 12" wide and it's perfect.

Pros
  • Non-slip sole prevents accidents and injuries
Cons
  • May not be suitable for rainy or wet weather

Great slippers!: my review

I ordered 12 after reading the reviews, my daughter now wears 11-12 in different brands of shoes. Good enough to dance with room to grow. The beats sound great. Love the velcro so she can change by herself for ballet/tap/acrobatic acrobatics. I wish the bow clamps were held a little tighter, but that's my only complaint.

Pros
  • Generally good shoes. Slightly darker than expected. But it still plays well!
Cons
  • Only available in one color (caramel

Nice shoes but run small

Bought these dance shoes for my little dancer. she loves them! I like the velcro closure and the fact that the loops are detachable. They're a bit small as they're the smallest size I could get and technically a size bigger than I need for my girl, but they make her feet look like they're tucked into shoes. She's not complaining but they feel a bit tight and the velcro is almost too small and her legs aren't wide or chunky so it's not! If she decides to keep dancing I will just increase the…

Pros
  • Comfortable design allows kids to play and dance without hurting their feet.
Cons
  • May not provide adequate traction on certain surfaces.

Easy to put on, best in my rating

Much better than the toddler version which is cheaper but fits terribly. Not sure why this is so much more expensive than the other one, wish it was cheaper but love how easy it is to put on and take off.

Pros
  • Made with high quality materials for maximum comfort with every use.
Cons
  • May not be appropriate for certain dress codes (e.g. school uniform).

The size must match the tights.

Looks good. A little loose. However, my daughter is 6 years old, so some sizes sometimes fit and sometimes don't. She could also increase in size by the concert in two months.

Pros
  • Robust tap shoe design ensures consistent sound quality
Cons
  • May not be suitable for heavily sweating children

Poor quality in my opinion

Expensive shoes from famous brands were worn only 4 times during an hour and a half session. The skin is already peeling off the toes. Extremely disappointed!

Pros
  • Received earlier than expected. Brand new with bows as described.
Cons
  • The lace on one of the shoes is missing. Can't go back as there are no substitutes until classes start on Monday.

Exactly right!: my rating

Spot on - goes well with the growth opportunity! A very good quality. The clip on the band is loose and has a tendency to fall off if not constantly checked.

Pros
  • My granddaughter loved her!!! Fits her perfectly
Cons
  • too small and missing arches :) So disappointing!

Small damages not quite as described

We thought we would get brown shoes without a bow and flowers in them. But instead I got a black version in brown. Also, one of the shoes had paint damage and what appears to be a hole, see the attached photos. As for the sizes, I used the Capezio website. My daughter also carries 8 toddlers so we have 9 wide and it fits her perfectly with some room to grow.

Pros
  • Manufactured by a trusted and trusted brand known for their exceptional quality
Cons
  • May not be suitable for children who prefer a different type of closure (e.g. Velcro or laces).

Great slippers: my review

I read reviews before buying. Most reviews recommend increasing the size. I went up a size and the shoes are a bit big but not too big. She gets two years of that. I definitely recommend it.

Pros
  • Mary Jane's versatile style makes her perfect for a variety of outfits.
Cons
  • May be uncomfortable if worn for long periods.

Amazing tap shoes, the best in my review

I absolutely love these slippers. My daughter requested them for her dance class, they were the same shoes but half the price of the studio store. It clicks everywhere and can't get the quality high enough and is perfect for the Tap class.

Pros
  • Exactly as advertised. My granddaughter is delighted
Cons
  • TWO LEFT SHOES!! Didn't even want to put 1 star!

Great slippers! in my rating

I measured my girls foot to find the right size, for reference she usually wears size 11.5-12 and size 12.5 fits her perfectly. The shoes are of very good quality and very beautiful! Very happy with them :)

Pros
  • This little slipper is great for my little one. They come with loops that detach from the shoes with clips. Fits true to size.
Cons
  • I received these shoes that someone else has already worn. You can see dirty toe prints. So rude!

I love this style of tap shoes

Very nice tap dance show. My toddler loves wearing them. I had to go 1/2 size bigger. She's got some chubby little legs. Adjustable strap provides a customized fit for kids of all sizes.

Pros
  • The adjustable strap offers a custom fit for kids of all sizes.
Cons
  • May require a break during this time

CHEAP MATERIAL in my opinion

My granddaughter once wore them to an hour-long dance class. By the end of the lesson, the material began to peel off the toes of each shoe.

Pros
  • Ideal for performances, recitals and dance competitions
Cons
  • Possibly lack of breathability

Good quality: my rating

First I tried to save some money and bought a cheaper pair of the same dance shoes. B and I bought this and these shoes fit my kid perfectly

Pros
  • solid and useful
Cons
  • The shoes look nice. They are true to size. However, they came without loops....
