Bloch split sole jazz shoe - Great dance shoe--very comfortable and danceable! Needs to fit like a glove, so order your real shoe size and expect it to be a little snug. It will stretch a little with time.

Dance Shoes - The shoes are light weight and are excellent for dance moves, however, as with most dance shoes, there is no arch support.

I purchased these shoes and the similar Capezio ones, but returned the Capezios because they were more flimsy. I am used to the Bloch and Capezio dance sneakers, so in comparison, these shoes are very thin and do not have much support, but they are definitely better than dancing barefoot. They do run small. I ordered a full size larger than I usually wear. (I love ordering from Zappos because they make it so easy. I generally have trouble fitting shoes, so if not for their easy return policy, I would never consider ordering online.)

Needed a good dance shoe for a school play and the comfort right away worked great for my daughter. Fit was perfect and they passed the 'cool' test.

I'm always impressed with Bloch dance shoes. These are very light, and fit my feet perfectly. They have good grip but still spin really well. I've only worn them less than 10 times so far, so I can't comment on durability. One thing I'd say is that because they're closed toe, ventilation is not as easy as with their open toe models, but I haven't noticed my feet overheating either.

Great fit for my girl with a wide foot. The laces allow for adjustment to get a perfect fit, which we just couldn't find in other jazz shoes. Like most dance shoes they run small, I ordered a 10.5 for my girl who usually wears a 9-9.5 wide.

My daughter usually wears a size 4.5 or 5 but I had to buy her a size 7 in these shoes. Great shoe for the price.

Great inexpensive jazz shoe. I bought it to replace a more expensive style Capezio no longer makes, but I am glad they don't as this is cheaper and just as well made. I wear a size 7 street shoe but usually order a 7.5 in jazz shoes, and this was true for this shoe also. I use them for belly dancing as not all surfaces make sense to dance barefoot on, and these are soft and comfortable with just enough protection.

These shoes are great. I ordered them a half size larger than my street size so that they would fit comfortably, but I would still have room to grow. I love how inexpensive they are. At my local dance shop, they would be much more expensive, so all in all, a great find.

Have been buying Bloch's for years and Zappos is the best! This shoe is extremely flexible and have the right size. Only problem is that it felt a little wider than last pair I have. Must wear thick socks, wish they made narrow widths.

Very comfy. I normally wear an 8 or 8.5 street shoe, and I wear a 9.5 in this shoe. I thought I'd need a wide because my toes are wide and long, but the 9.5 Regular fit great.

These are great jazz shoes. They are soft where they need to be and harder where they need to be for my daughter during rehearsals and shows.

This is the best "practice" shoe I have ever owned! It runs a bit small (I ordered a half size bigger than my usual size). They are extremely soft and can fold in half (taking up little space in my dance bag), but heel is sturdy enough to provide some support.

These are excellent jazz shoes. The laces allow for a snug (or loose) fit and is a great lightweight shoe which allows for easier movement in jazz. I haven't had them for a long period of time, so I'm unsure of the durability, but they seem to be a high quality soft leather and sole. They're perfect for my class and even better is they're inexpensive, since I'm barely a part-time dancer. I may order a slip on with a thicker sole if I danced more. And yes, order at least a half size larger than street shoes because they are meant to fit snug and your toe will definitely poke at the tip of the shoe when pointing.
