I prefer my shoes to be quite tight, I run in 9 outdoor shoes and based on the size chart I was advised to buy 9-9.5. I had a solid inch of room in my toes. However, the material is great and I order one size smaller. I plan to use them for West Coast Swing!

I have to wear insoles in my shoes, but I go barefoot at home. However, I still need support. That way they stay on me with the insoles when I'm at home and I don't need slippers, traditional slippers that don't hold the insoles. They fit a little with the insoles in, but I hope they loosen up a bit while I wear them.

I use them for musical theater, on a variety of surfaces (from rehearsals to performances). I have high arches and occasional plantar fasciitis so I need good support in flats and between the firm sole and dual strap my feet don't hurt like other flats I've tried. I don't find the strap/buckle position adjustable but the shoes fit me well so I'm happy anyway. I'm a 9 in regular shoes, on the narrow side of the M, and the shoes 9-9.5 are perfect in length and width.

Add some wording Miss Presenter thought it was a full leather boot top and bottom just leather bottom but it does the job 😉

When I wore it for the first time, the seams on the sole came undone in one place, which I had to sew together myself. I hope that doesn't happen often.

Ballerinas are simple in design and very comfortable for me. I bought about three pairs to keep in different family members' homes. I just don't want to forget to pack them when I'm visiting with my family☺️ They also remind me of the long days in the past when I was Bailarina, a young girl.

The shoes seemed comfortable to me, I had to reorder a size larger as they were about half smaller than advertised (I wear 8, had to reorder 9). I found them a bit pricey but my daughter bought a pair that didn't fit me.

I studied ballet professionally and later taught all levels. I wear street shoes 8.5 with a normal to wide fit and 8-8.5 fit perfectly. I'm not sure how many ballet teachers in the US will embrace this new ballet shoe format for beginners, but it works! Elastic fit closer to vamp but heel remains. (Ask your teacher or studio first about the dress code if using ballet slippers.) These are fantastic slippers to wear at home, do basic ballet, tai chi, yoga, etc. They are really well made and…

I prefer these shoes to regular training shoes. The full-length cushioned insole is very comfortable for jumps and kicks, but I still feel the ground. I have a 7B in street shoes, with a very high arch and low profile. I first ordered 7-7.5 which was too long and too wide. Now I wear 6-6.5 after measuring my feet according to the instructions (duh) and they are perfect! After they are stretched I keep wearing them but with socks (I dance at home) to fill them up and use them for weaving…
