These shoes are just great -- buy a size larger than street. So glad to find good dancing shoes in a wide width, and an appearance the envy of my dancing compatriots.

Perfect for dance - These are so comfortable you almost (almost) forget they're on your feet. I've stood/danced/done blocking in these in rehearsals for over 3 hours and still been comfortable. I ordered them in my regular size (7 m) and they fit just fine. THANKS ZAPPOS!
Brands I'd also recommend: more Capezios!

I love these shoes! I was very skeptical at first because there were some negative reviews, but I am so happy that I did purchase them. Some of the reviews stated that there was a need to size up. You do not need to size up! At first they are a bit snug, but once you break them in they are perfect. The shoe is pretty good quality and my director loves them! I recommend them to all!

I'm 48 years old and wear an 8.5 to 9 wide shoe. This fit well (true to size and width) style was adorable but I didn't like the color. Was a very flat looking black color, almost like a dusty black. I chose the "TicTacToe" shoe instead. It wasn't as cute in style but had a richer black faux leather texture.

Beautiful shoes- very good quality. I was just afraid of the heel height, so I returned them. Otherwise, they were awesome!

Follow MGF instructions and order a size up! I read many reviews and it appeared that this wasn't really necessary, but I should have followed instructions.

Comfortable to dance in, and less after shock the next morning. Could do without the nail in the center of the heel bottom - wondering how that will wear, but great now!

After several returns, I choose these marvelous shoes. Dance shoes are best for me, mostly because I have very sensitive feet (although I do take ballroom dance classes). These soft shoes fit like a glove and are still supportive. They were my wedding shoes. Dyed them white and had a ball; comfortable all day. A special thank you to Zappos from this older bride for your low prices, free shipping, and calming customer service reps.

I bought these shoes for my daughter and she loves them! Not only were they in her size (she does have big feet), but they were/are very comfortable. Thanks!

Put a sparkle in your step - We purchased these shoes for our daughter. She needed them for a summer theater group. I was nervous ordering shoes online, but was thankful to have input from previous buyers. These shoes are working out great and we would highly recommend them.

Pageant Ready - I used these shoes for the production numbers we performed at Miss Michigan Outstanding Teen Pageant this past week. I enjoyed them and they were easy to walk and dance in. I would recommend these shoes if you need a pair of black heels and your feet are too small to wear normal heels like me.
Brands I'd also recommend: I would recommend the tan character shoe.

Cindy L. I've recently purchased this stylish tap shoe and am extremely happy. Very comfortable and easy to tap in. I generally wear a size 8 1/2, but ordered a size 9 medium and it fits perfect. At 53 years old and experiencing tap dancing lessons at my local YMCA, I'm the envy of the class with these shoes!

GORGEOUS! A beautiful character shoe! Very pricey, but worth it. I use it as a tap shoe. Hard leather sole is very sturdy, but flexible enough. Heel height is perfect-sexy but not too high to dance. High quality leather broke in very fast, and bound edges didn't rub. I put in gel-pads for shock absorption at the ball of the foot. I recommend for serious dancers!
