Great shoe! I bought for Zumba dancing; snug but very comfy. Shoe is lightweight and allows easy pivoting for dancing!

Poorly constructed! The shoes look awesome, fit great, though small (must get a half size larger). I was very excited to get them with super fast shipping and tried them on. Convinced I got great shoes, I used them for Zumba. On 2nd day, the little straps on the left shoe where the laces go through started snapping, one by one, as I went through the class, to my horror. This is my first disappointing Zappos purchase. I wish there was some sort of warranty on the purchase!

Length and width was too small. If you are considering this shoe I suggest at least a half size larger than your normal street shoe in which I wear a 7.5. I'm hoping the 8 will work because they are so sleek looking!

Love this shoe! It isn't as clunky as a dance sneaker, it looks really cute, and it is comfortable enough for hip-hop (maybe not as much jumping) and jazz.

The fit and quality were exactly what I wanted. I'm glad I took the advise offered on the site about ordering a size larger because they do fit small.

About Bloch
Bloch loved watching ballet and visited many dance studios. At one such studio, he noticed a young dancer who was having trouble staying on pointe. Bloch promised he would make her a better pair of shoes, and so he did. After that, Bloch’s reputation for making good dance shoes spread rapidly.
At Bloch, the respect the company has for its clients' art is infinite. Contributing to a dancer's artistry, in even the slightest way is the ultimate Bloch goal. Admittedly jealous of their clients' artistic ability, Bloch is proud to contribute confidence and beauty through the best dance footwear in the world.

Many reviews say get a half size larger. Listen to that advice, I wear a 6.5, the 7 fits. The shoe is great for my Zumba class, I love how light the shoe is and how well the arch support gives my foot stability. Its made the turns in the dance steps so much easier than tennis shoes. Do yourself a favor and don't wear these out of doors on anything but indoor flooring. You'll tear the bottoms up. I gave the style a 4 because there is some gapping I see at the ankle of the shoe, not that it takes away from the comfort or fit.

I have now worn these for several weeks in Zumba and Masala Bhangra (another cardio dance class). I am over 55, wear a 12 & have very little arch. These shoes are a dream!

They do run very small. I got a 9.5 for a size 8 foot, and it is just a tiny bit big. I love them for salsa practice. They are very light, with good arch support and just smooth enough sole for turns.

Looking for a lightweight, arch hugging dance sneak that works well outside? This is it. Slippery on wood floors, but it's nothing a bit of resin can't control. Love this shoe!
