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.

Shoes are beautiful as shown. I have not worn them yet. Heel is higher than listed -- measures 3 1/4, so I may not be able to use them.

I usually wear a size 8 and I have a narrow foot. I ordered this shoe a size up as the manufacturer recommended and the length was fine but the shoes are very wide and my feet slide down. Beware if you have narrow feet!

gorgeous shoes. very comfortable to dance in. my street shoes size is 6.5 and I ordered 6. I normally order a full size smaller than my street shoes size for Latin dance shoes; since the manufacture suggested the size is smaller, I went down half a size only. They fit perfectly. They are wider than a medium. Luckily, the closest strap to the ankle has elastic on the inner side of the shoe, so the shoe hugs the foot. Nice quality. I'm happy with them. For size 6, the heels are exactly 3 inches. I know in normal high heels the heels go higher in larger shoe sizes. Don't know if it's true for dance shoes.

Very attractive shoes. Not sure I'm going to keep them yet...I ordered half a size down...what are they thinking with order your street size? I'm going to return these are order a full size down because I can already tell they're going to stretch and there is a tiny gap. So I would recommend ordering at least a half size down. The height is very comfortable and low. (I don't know why someone put 3 and a quarter that makes no sense at all, maybe someone who doesn't wear high heels ever?)

These are fantastic shoes. I purchased them for my ballroom classes and they've been perfect. Flexible and comfortable and light as a feather. I found they run true to size for me, though I may be able to order half a size smaller. Love them.
