Thanks! We'll notify you as soon as we add new styles for Bloch.
Bloch´s philosophy of listening to dancers is still as strong today as it was when Jacob Bloch made his first pair of pointe shoes in 1932. Bloch arrived from Europe in 1931 at the height of the Great Depression and began making shoes by hand in the workshop where he lived.

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.

Great dance fitness sneaker. Fantastic support and very comfortable! They do run a little narrow so if you have wide feet, go up a half size.

Bought for Zumba class because I needed high top for ankle support. Went 1/2 size larger but it was too small. 1 full size larger was too large. Also have used twice in class and the soles are too slick and I slide when I shouldn't. The soles aren't conducive to wood floors. I have other shoes with much better soles. Since I have used I can't return so I am stuck with expensive shoes that I can't use.

I bought this shoe for Jazzercise and I love it. It's very light and has great support. The sole has a nice large pivot area making turns and transitions easy. This shoe runs small so I bought the next half size up and the fit is great.

Great dancing shoe. Really comfortable for my feet. Actually, need to get 1/2 size up from regular size. So not "true to size" but true to the size I need for dancing.

Love Zappos for their fantastic return and shipping policies. Unfortunately this is the second Bloch I have ordered and had to return because it runs so darn small. I will order again hopefully third time is a charm.

I'd also recommend: I would if I can just fit into them and do some Zumba
