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.

I bought these sneakers for Zumba. I'll be honest, I wasn't a big fan of the look of these shoes, but they got such rave reviews! I'm an overweight girl, and all other sneakers were hurting my feet and cutting off the circulation to my toes. I needed a wider shoe with room in the toe box. I LOVE THESE!!! I feel like I am putting slippers on my feet, and they offer support in all the right places! I had tried a few different "dance" sneakers with a look that I liked better, but these Blochs are the way to go! HIGHLY recommended. They do run very small. I normally wear a 8.5-9, and I ordered these in a 10, and they fit great.

Too bad, the shoes are nice but way too small for the average foot. The sizes posted are at least 1 to 1.5 smaller than indicated. They should indicate in product layout that they run really small. Why waste time for people having to return them because they are so small?

I love, love, love these shoes for Zumba; as an instructor, balls of feet quite distressed. These sneakers give the support and agility much better than Nike Musique's or the Capezio look-alikes. I've tried cross trainers, used Spenco inserts, nothing beats these Blochs. Run small, I normally take an 8 so ordered a 9 and fits great with my half sock. The added cushion in the heel is great, too though I don't have any heel issues. I'm just waiting for Bloch to come out with a different color style, say black sneaker with hot pink or neon lime highlights to go with all the cool dance wear out there!

I'd also recommend: Nike running sneakers

I have the Black Rockitt Dance Sneaker and now I want to order the pink ones, just so I know they are the new ones. I have really enjoyed these Capezio's for my Zumba class. My feet love them, as they are not even tired after an hour of continuous dance. Love them, and several people have purchased them, as they trust my 'expertise'. Thank-you for making such a great dance shoe!

I'd also recommend: The low heeled tap shoe for cloggers, as you can put the extra taps on.
