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.

Definitely order 1.5 sizes larger than normal. I got a 10 and normally wear 8.5. This shoe feels great and has great arch support. However, I teach Zumba, and it slides around on a hardwood floor due the center part of the ball of the sole. It would probably work great if I had to dance on a carpeted floor. The hard plastic should be reviewed by the manufacturer for something that has a little more hold on a slick floor. With that change, this shoe would be my favorite ever!!

I love the look of this shoe, and they are comfortable if they fit. I recommend you order 2 sizes larger. I wear a 9-9.5 street shoe and ordered a 10.5. It was way too short. I think the width/circumference is great. Most shoes I find are way too big around the center of my foot. I marked the overall rating as 2 stars because they are unusable as a dance shoe. The spin spot is way too slick. I danced in them once and had to catch myself from falling several times. I then wore them on concrete and did lots of spins to try to scratch them up and wore them again. I was still not comfortable changing direction. So if you want a cute shoe to walk around in, go for it and order big. If you want a good dance shoe, skip this and go for the Bloch Boost.

To avoid a return, order a full size larger than your sneaker. I typically buy Leo's but found that these were just as comfortable but more streamlined, less clunky. Pivot is smooth, but the tread is soft and pliable. Lacing system is a bit sticky but it keeps everything in place. They lace higher than the Bloch Mesh Boost, giving more upper foot support. Light weight, nice style, I'm sold.

I'd also recommend: Leo's NRG Wave

Size was chosen using Zappos conversion chart from size 44 European, which was 10.5 US. In fact they fit my husband who takes size 8.5.

I had to order full size larger (thank you for free shipping)! But, I love these shoes. They feel weightless and so comfortable.
