    Do Not Hesitate - Do not hesitate to order this dance sneaker if you are looking for a very comfortable dance shoe. I can now return to dancing 3 nights a week instead of 1. I will order from Zappo's again. They stand behind their guarantees.

    About Capezio

    of New Styles!

    Notify me when new styles of Capezio are added to the website

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    Salvatore Capezio was born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy. Uninterested in following in his father’s footsteps as a construction engineer, he became an artist of his own right, a cobbler. In 1887, at the age of 17, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street, diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. Soon, the shop became a meeting place for dancers who would stop by to discuss their needs and to get a pair of his shoes. As Capezio’s popularity grew, dancers from around the world made it a point to visit him and purchase his shoes.

    The innovation of the products that Salvatore Capezio created and the camaraderie he shared with the dancers molded the direction that his company would follow. In this image, the Capezio brand was established to promote and recognize ongoing achievements and participation in dance.

    Capezio products remain in the forefront in quality and in technological advances with innovations like the split-sole, the stretch-insert, the Dansneaker® and the Tapsneaker. Capezio believes that their success is dependent upon the individual commitment of each customer to continually set new standards of creativity and performance, while preserving a reputation for dependability and distinction. Capezio pledges their support and dedication to the advancement of dance, theater and recreation in communities worldwide.

    Dance Fierce - Overall the dancesneaker is a very good quality. I would definitely purchase them again in the future. The only problem I had was with the size. When ordering for my daughter that wears a childs 2 1/2, I had to order her a size 5.

    Nice, but not what I wanted - These shoes might be great for a different kind of dancing. I do Jazzercise, and my foot slid around inside this shoe just a little too much. I need more stability. Also, I wear a size 8 but due to the feedback on this shoe I bought a 9. It fit just fine.

    Dancin in style - I am still trying to figure out the new sizing and styling for Capezio. This shoe seems to be more supportive than the other style I have worn for years and like that. The fit is less sloppy, but the more pointed toe is not as good for my foot and requires almost a full size bigger. It seems like it will last longer and is more sturdy.

    Too Small - Great shoes but I take an 8 in almost everything and ordered an 8.5. When it came it felt like a 7.5. I had to order 1.5 sizes bigger than normal to get a shoe that fit.

    My Dance Sneakers - They are nice, comfortable dancing shoes. Best to order a size larger, I had to return the first pair which I originally ordered 1/2 size bigger. Zappos is great with returns, I got credit for the returned ones as soon as they got them. In the meantime, I ordered the next size up which are perfect. Zappos is really great to deal with, super-fast delivery, ease of returns, and immediate credit if you do have to return something.

    I love this shoe. I've been either aerobic dancing or Jazzercising since 1981 and these are the best shoes I've ever worn. I think they run a bit short and would go up a 1/2 size next pair.

    capezio fierce dancesneaker - Tried this instead of athletic shoes for aerobics and kickboxing, because my knees were bothering me with all the turning and twisting. These shoes definitely help, less knee pain first time I wore them. But the cushioning under the ball of the foot is not as good as aerobic or cross-training shoes. Probably will get them again though. They are so comfortable.

    Looking for a dance shoe - I did not believe the web site notice of starting 2 sizes larger than street shoes. The first ones did not fit. The return process was no problem, and credit was given promptly. The second pair was ordered as suggested, and fit great. Best pair of dance shoes I have had. Will order the same pair again when it is time.

    Could be worse... Excellent construction. Great support. Only problem is that they don't have a wide version for people like me (5E). I can get by with the available sizes for a short period of time, but it would be nice if some of these shoes (and also the ballroom shoes) were available in wider sizes.
