Capezio girls Daisy 205 Ballet Shoe (Toddler/Little Kid),Black,2 W US Little Kid

Due to reviews....I ordered a size up for my 5 year old daughter. She has just started wearing a size 10, we ordered an 11M. Sizing up was Not the right decision. The width was fine- she has a pretty typical "medium" width foot now that she is older & these were fine in that regard, if not a little loose. However, they were Definitely at least a sz too large for her. Much too long.My advice: order their current size OR order a couple pairs in different sizes if you are concerned & return what doesn't workAs a former dancer (& a daughter of such as well), I do know how these should fit her feet.If she were older, she should not have extra space in the shoe. Since she is still growing, a little space is okay, if not preferred.However, it's obvious that ordering a size up in these leaves them much too long & will cause her to trip, etc.I should have followed Capezio's own sizing guidelines, rather than the reviews here, as they list these as being true to size. They are correct in our experience.Ordering her current street shoe size will still leave a bit of room at the end of the toes for growth, but will not be so long they are hazardous.The quality of these ballet slippers is excellent. Granted, I've always been a bit partial to Capezio.. This Daisy style is a little less flat than the classic Teknik's, if you are familiar with those. I think this Daisy style is excellent for little girls like mine whose feet are a little thicker up and down (if that makes since- not width, but actual thickness) than some. I may even order a pair for myself.The pink is classic & beautiful. The lining is cute & feels comfortable. The name tag inside is a great touch, though I am a little concerned as to whether or not they will cause a little irritation upon dancing. I will update if they Do. The edging does not rub her heel/ankle when cinched. The full sole is just as expected and nice. The leather is soft but durable & not too thin nor too thick.These really are quite lovely!These are a great buy & I do not forsee any problems with these in her correct size.However, Do order in their current street shoe size first...

My daughter loves her new ballet shoes. I bought a size 1 though she usually wears a 13 youth. I sized up because I figured they weren’t stretchy and run a bit small. The size 1 fits perfect, they have a nice arch support and look really nice. The shoes are well made.

My daughter is joining dance this year and I remember from growing up that Capezio was a good dance brand. But we’re not committed enough to dance for me to spend the top dollar price tag that sometimes comes with dance classes. So I first looked at target for ballet shoes but theirs weren’t the quality I was looking for. Since I was on a time crunch, I decided to check out Amazon and found capezio ballet shoes for a killer price! These are perfect. Only thing I can warn a person of is these seem to run small. I ordered a whole size bigger than usual and those were still too small. I’m exchanging them for the second size up. We’ll see! But overall, the quality and the price point are perfect.**UPDATE** 2 sizes up were a perfect fit! And this price point is an absolute steal! These same slippers/shoes were for sale in the studio for $28!! I’d call this a win. Don’t hesitate to hit that ‘buy now’ button!

These look amazing and great quality - however my daughter is almost a 9 and have to size up.

I've bought my daughter these Capezio Daisy 205's for as long as she has been dancing. They stretch have great flexibility and always last the dance season until she outgrows them. Will keep buying these.

Ultra SMALL! Size 7 in her other shoes are a bit big, these 7s won't even get onto her foot by at least an inch. Ordering 9s, so we will see... they do appear good quality and I love them. She does too and cried because we can't keep them. 😪 Will update review after receiving new larger ones.

I got size 1 for my daughter who normally wears a size 1 and they fit fine.Be very aware that these are single piece soles. Some ballet classes require “split sole“ ballet shoes, which unfortunately turns out to be the case for my daughters class. So these were a great buy at eight dollars, but I’m gonna have to buy another pair to get what we need. Otherwise they seemed great.

I'm glad I ordered 2 sizes because my child at the time wore a size 6 and the 7.5 fit her for a few months. Plus the lace is annoying to tie. I bought a cheaper ballet shoe that had a sturdier sole.
