    I sing with Potomac Harmony Chorus and purchased the shoes for my perfomances. I wore them recently and found them to be very comfortable, even after being on my feet for 4 hours. The suggestion to buy the shoes a half size bigger was very helpful. I typically wear a 6, but the 6.5 fit perfecly.

    Purchased for my teen daughter for a special occasion. She does not like heels and does not like dressing up, but she found this to be a perfect and very comfortable shoe. She is difficult to fit, and sometimes takes a 9.5, sometimes a 10, sometimes a Medium width, sometimes a Wide. We found that the 10 Wide in this shoe fit her perfectly. And it looks great!

    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.

    As per recommendation I ordered a size larger and in wide. I put a nice sole inside for extra cushioning and it is now perfect for dancing long hours! I can only recommend this shoe for the comfort and looks, jsut what I needed.

    These are very, very, narrow, I got a wide and they are comfortably snug. Get a 1/2 size larger too. Great to have such well-constructed shoes for a change.

    These run very narrow. I normally wear a normal width and had to order the wide. Aside from that, they are very comfortable and easy to balance in. The bottom is well padded and keeps your feet warm.

    The quality of this shoe surpasses Capezio shoes in our dance stores. The felt lining gives added comfort and it has a nice arch support. The leather is soft and comfortable. I normally wear a 6 1/2 Medium, and that size was too small, so I ordered the 6 1/2 Wide, the 7 Medium and 7 Wide. The 6 1/2 W was too short, the 7 Medium was a little snug and the 7 Wide is roomy, so I am wearing the 7 Wide for my long practice classes when I wear a heavier sock. It works well. I may keep the 7 Medium for my actual performances. With Free shipping both ways, Zappos makes it easier to try different sizes.

    I am impossible to fit with shoes - This shoe, which I bought for lessons in ballroom dancing, came close. I have very narrow heels and very high arches with little bottom padding on my feet. The narrow size of this shoe barely hugs my skinny heels, but the strap makes me feel pretty confident that I won't step out of them. I usually wear a 9-1/2 to 10 narrow shoe size and I purchased a 10 narrow, since a 10-1/2 was not available. Because there's minimal arch support for me, I found my feet went forward into the toe box and caused some pain. However, all in all, I did survive my first hour of dancing in these shoes without too much suffering. I do wish somebody would make some dancing shoes with some extra inside padding for older women like me. We are definitely a neglected market - a situation that surely will change now that the very active boomers have entered their 60s. I personally am definitely part of a neglected market: she of the 9-1/2 narrow foot. When I was young, I could find at least a few stylish shoes in my size. I could even find shoes that had narrower heel widths. Now I cannot even find any pair of flip-flops narrow enough to stay on.

    Very happy - After reading the other reviews, I order the shoes in a size and width larger than normal. They arrived the next day, felt wonderful, and looked sharp. I only wear them once a week for about three hours, but they are very comfortable and I forget that I'm even wearing them. I will buy another pair.

    Very comfortable shoe, even after a one hour tap class. No break-in required. Based on others' comments that the shoe runs small, I ordered both a 7.5N and an 8N (my usual size is 7 or 7.5 narrow). The size 8 was perfect and was true to width. Delivery was quick and returning the too small shoes was simple.

    Old is new again - I used to wear these shoes when I was younger, but had somehow forgotten about them. I teach middle school and am on my feet all day. These are stylish and comfortable. I love them. Now, I just wish they came in red. I wear a 7.5 - 8.0 and bought it in an 8.0.

    Needs No Breaking-In - I had been trying to take dance lessons (Ballroom/Latin) in some high-heel dance shoes. I bought these shoes and they have been worth every penny! No breaking-in period was needed. They are so soft and the heel height is perfect. I now plan to order the same shoe in tan. They are definitely at least a half size smaller and narrower than they are marked. I ordered a wide size and was really glad I did. Plus, I ordered these on Zappos at about 5:30 one afternoon and they arrived on UPS the very next morning! How is that even possible?!?

    Capezio Leather Jr. Footlight - This is as comfortable character/dance shoe as I have found. I ordered a whole size larger than my shoe size and found it was too large. It is best to order no more than 1/2 size larger - or your regular shoe size only wider.

    Order one size larger - I am very pleased with the Capezio dancing shoes. I normally wear a size 9N, these run one size smaller. These shoes have excellent arch support and a padded insole. The free overnight shipping is the best!!

    Comfortable, but too big! I ordered a half size larger due to all the other reviews. I wish I hadn't. I always wear a 9.5 in Capezio, but I ordered a 10 and it was way too big. I should have stuck with my regular size.
