Capezio Women's SD02 Rosa 2.5" Flared-Heel Sanadl

Got these 6 weeks back and then went on vacation so just got around to trying them on and walking around in them. Toe box is still not wide enough for my feet, despite these being marketed as wide width. Heel wobbles and I fear that I'll twist my ankles if I wear these outside.Would return if I was able.Height: 6'1"Foot length: 27.7cmOrdered 11.5W

I got the size 5 M, which turned out to be a little large; however, I have very small feet for an adult and size 5 was the smallest offered. With a few adjustments, they fit snugly and I can wear them for several hours. The most I've worn them in one day was 5 hours--a 2-hour block, then a 3-hour block. Based on what I've heard from others I dance with, it's best to go with street shoe size or slightly smaller for most Capezio shoes.I'm not a huge fan of the pearl color (or its shininess), but it's fairly close to skin tone. Moreover, it's affordable and is holding up well so far. As of writing this, I've probably put in ~20 hours of wearing them while dancing. The shoes only show a little wear on the fabric and buckle holes. I've also seen good quality from the  Capezio Women's DS11 Fierce Dansneaker , which I initially bought locally for practice.All in all, this is a good shoe for a beginner. It's affordable, and the sizing is close to street shoe size. I know several other people who bought the same shoe and continue to use it for practice. Moreover, it's passable for a standard shoe if you can't afford 2 pairs at once, or aren't sure if you're ready to commit. I'm definitely happy with these shoes.

I'm a new dancer and my dancer partner recommended that I get a pair of Capezio shoes because they were the best brand for dancers, but also because they last a long time because they are so well made.I've been training for at least a few hours a day for a couple of days a week for a little over a month now and the shoes are wonderful. I'm able to slide easily with these and they support my body weight without any issue. The only small issue that I have with them is that they are a little too wide for my foot. I have very narrow feet, so it don't get as much support on the sides of my feet, but aside from that I think they are a great buy.As a word of advice, if you're a new dancer you're going to have to ask someone how to put them on and tighten them. I had to create holes in them to make sure they were snug enough, and I used a Youtube video to show me how to put them on. So if you aren't familiar with ballroom dance shoes you'll need to see a video or ask someone how to wear them once they arrive.

The only issue so far is that both heels show signs of wear and they’re supposed to be new. I held off on getting those for a year because of the price and when I finally close the deal they show up lacking in quality.Fit is as listed. The strap going under the sole makes for a good custom snugness. Will update after my first night on the dance floor.

These heels arrived in a timely manner. I typically wear a size 7 sneaker and a size 6.5 boot. I ordered a size 7 after reading some other reviews, and while it does fit well, I feel as if I should have ordered a half size smaller.These heels are decently comfortable to dance in, though the heel is higher than advertised, and the balance is slightly off. I'm able to comfortably wear them for about 2-3 hours at a time. The shoe quality itself is okay- it is well-stitched, though the sole is a little thin and the heel feels slightly unstable.I've has the shoes for nearly a month at this point, and I've danced in them for about 25 hours. They don't shoe too much wear, though the inside of the shoe and the sole do get dirty. I often notice that I need to adjust the strap and make it tighter the longer I've been wearing them, and the front straps over my toes have loosened since I've received them.Overall, for the price I paid, it's a decent shoe and a good choice for beginners, but more experienced dancers should look elsewhere.

Amazing! I love these shoes. These were my first pair of Latin shoes for ballroom practice and competitions, and they fit like a dream. I wear them around 4-5 times per week for lessons that last around 2-3 hours each time. The shoes themselves are very flexible, which makes it easy to point your toe and flex your foot without any resistance from the shoe. The ankle strap can wrap around your mid-foot or upper ankle for two different looks, though I'd recommend mid-foot for more stability. The straps around the toe area are also very comfortable and stretch out a little after wearing the shoes for a few weeks, in case you're worried about pinching there. The footbed is also soft, foamy, and overall very comfortable. After wearing these for a month, they felt like extensions of my feet!Like any shoes, they take a bit of breaking in, especially in the back upper heel area. I had some blisters and bleeding for a couple weeks, but eventually I built up callouses in those areas and wearing the shoes no longer hurt. The pain is worth the gain.

Overall I am content with this shoe. On the upside, it looks nice, the heel is a dance-able height and stable, and the bottom works well for spins and quicker turns. However, this is not the shoe for you if you have wide feet. My feet are fairly (but not extremely) narrow, and it fits well at the heel and is even slightly too narrow through the toe box. The straps by the toe are a bit strangely placed (I suspect that may be more about my foot than the shoe), but they are getting more comfortable with wear. After several classes and some social dancing (roughly 8 hours of break-in time), I'd say the shoe is comfortable for up to about 2 hours, but not much more. It seems to be slightly prone to scuffs, but they aren't terribly noticeable on the black. In short, if you have narrow feet and can manage some time to break them in, I think these shoes have more pros than cons; if you have wide feet, I wouldn't recommend them.

I really love these shoes despite some other reviews showing them as poor. They are comfy and feel relatively stable when I'm doing Latin dance. The only issue I did encounter was that the straps didn't fit closely to my ankle at first so I had to have more holes put in by a shoe mender so now the quick fasten buckle works better. However this is probably due to having tiny ankles! The heel height is workable and for once I don't feel like I'm tottering about ! The shoes are so pretty in pink satin effect and feel quite well made for the price. The fit may not be wide enough for some, so I would check that out, however, I felt that the size 7 was actually quite true compared to some other dance shoe makes. Overall I really like Capezio as it suits my ridiculously narrow feet!

I worn this in every singles classes and workshops and parties. I'm so loving it. I want more in different colours. It's so soft.The only cons about this is it gets dirty ofcourse, just like the other shoes. I haven't tried washing it yet.

I wanted a relatively cheap pair of dancing shoes because I'm not a professional dancer, but one that still looks pretty. I was affraid that the size will not be right, but did order the shoes (using the info about sizing on the websiteand). It turned out that my feet fit perfectly in the shoes and they're fairly comfortable (I guess no high heels would be perfectly comfortable).

The shoes are nice but I made a mistake with size as the size table provided was confusing. On the pair that arrived it was US size measures, not UK as I selected when ordered it. Otherwise the quality and color looks nice, I did not try them on though. The buckle is convenient as it fixes the foot and is suitable for narrow fit.

Totally wrong size, I ordered 5.5 which is 25cm in the table, but infact is 24.2 and small. I'm dissapointed
