My first pair of practice Latin shoes did not disappoint! I was concerned about the fit around the toe because of the small aperture, but they really didn’t even require a break-in period. After my first lesson, I had some very mild discomfort around the big toe, but subsequent lessons have been entirely free of that sensation. The suede bottom is the right combination of slick and sticky, making turns a breeze but not to the point where you feel like you’ve stepped on a banana peel! I do notice that the ankle strap is stretching just a bit and I needed to drop down a hole after several lessons, but that’s my only watch on these. Don’t settle for a cheapie pair, these are wonderful!
I have very wide feet - dance bunions like you wouldn't believe. In length I'm probably a size 8- 8.5, but need to order wide and often get a 9 depending on the width of the shoe. I ordered an 8.5 regular based on reviews saying they're wide, but was honestly expecting to have to size up again - I was so happy and shocked to find that these have a truly wide forefoot and they fit perfectly and comfortably out of the box, no breaking-in period!! The folds of the satin seem to expand with my foot. The heel is low and wide compared to the T-strap Bloch shoe I'm used to wearing for Jazz. They feel really stable, I can dance full out, have zero foot pain from the shoe being too narrow, and are way more beautiful and flattering than a character shoe! I'm a fair blonde and the brown satin is light, it's close enough to my skin color that it doesn't visually cut off the leg line. *My only negative comment is that the T-strap doesn't pull the shoe in to hug the underside of my arch and when I point there's a visible gap between my foot and the shoe.
Cute and comfortable fit!!
I am a latin dancer--I dance bachata and salsa on a team. I have gone through several heels. First, I like the durable bag that the heels come in (I think the color could be more elegant but it's a nice bag). I have not had any pain in these heels so far. The size is perfect on me (I always order half a size smaller than my gym shoes so that it will be just right). I think the toe area is more narrow than other heels I have had so keep that in mind. It was not a problem for me but might be for someone with wider feet. I performed in these and have attended dance practices in these a couple of times and they are great so far.
I need to put a bandage around my toe after 1 hr dance. Other than that they are just okay. The sole are better quality than I spent only $40-50 shoes.
I can't express how thrilled I am with my Very Fine Dance Shoes Gabriella 2.5" heels! As someone transitioning from flats to heels, these shoes have taken my dance game to a whole new level.The comfort level of these heels is outstanding. Even after hours of dancing, my feet feel supported and comfortable, ensuring I can dance the night away without any discomfort or fatigue.I used the measure chart and the shoes fit.I highly recommend the Very Fine Dance Shoes Gabriella 2.5" heels. They're the perfect combination of style, comfort, and functionality.
