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.

These feel fabulous and the sizing is great. Unfortunately the heels is too tall for my needs. I normally wear 8½ and the 9 fit great.

I bought these shoes so I would have some dancing shoes. I wore them on New Years's eve. The leather is so stiff that I had terrible blisters on my big toes. I hope the leather will soften up a bit. If not I will have wasted a lot of money.

This shoe would have been wonderful if it had fit. I ordered an W however, it was at least an inch (1") too short. Nice construction. Overall, great shoe. Unfortunately, I have to return it and try again!

After owning the Sienna model for over a year I decided to order another pair of Bloch dance shoes for my dance lessons. My experience with the quality and comfort with these shoes has been great, and after plenty of use they are in great condition, so I came back for more. I'm a size 11 and they feel true to size. It's a very stable shoe, very important feature when dancing and doing all those fancy turns (I have a bad ankle). I had ordered my original Sienna model in natural color leather and did the same for the Isabella model. That way they would go with everything, no matter what I'm wearing. I'm extremely pleased with this Isabella model, they're even more comfortable than the Sienna. I plan to order them in black as soon as they become available in my size. I would definitely recommend this shoe for anyone who is into social dancing. Make sure to buy a wire brush to keep the suede outer sole in good condition.

Went up a size as suggested but this made my foot slip to front and toes hurt in opening. I am between a 9 1/2 and 10. Will keep another style by Bloch, an enclosed toe ankle strap style, which fits in 10.

I love my Isabella Bloch ballroom dance shoes from Zappos. They are soft so they don't bind. And ordering from Zappos was simple with fast delivery time.
