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 love these tap shoes! Upon the recommendation of prior purchasers, I ordered a full size larger than my regular shoe size. I have narrow feet and the width is perfect for me.

Very comfortable tap shoe with pliable soft leather upper. It is lined inside (synthetic soft material), which is great if you don\'t want to wear them with socks. The Bloch design at the heel curves at the back tendon and is quite pliable, adding to the comfort. \r\n\r\nThe laces could be just a tad longer and I am considering buying replacement laces that are not too long, not too short (considering my foot is not wide or fat, I was surprised at the laces\' shortness). \r\n\r\nI\'m a beginner at tap, so I can\'t really judge the tap quality, although it all sounds fine to me. \r\n\r\nOverall, a good shoe for this tap newbie.

I'd also recommend: Bloch Jazz shoes

My daughter loves them. They are so soft, flexible and light. My daughter has not worn socks with them and has yet no blisters. Her "wings" are easier now with this shoe.

Great for beginning tapper! Bought these for a beginning tap class I started a few months back. I bought a 1/2 size bigger then my regular size and they fit great. Definitely not for a wide footed person. They are very soft and flexible.

Great tap shoes - I followed other reviews' advice and ordered a half size up, but I had to return them for my regular size; not sure if Bloch changed their sizing or if other people are wearing socks with their shoes (I just wear peds or tights). Super comfortable & I can't wait to wear them for tap class.
