Great For Zumba!
Excellent support, but still flexible… perfect for Zumba. Would be good for Jazzercise as well. I am not sure how it would do with more high impact type aerobics. I followed the size advice of other reviewers and ordered a full size larger, it fits perfectly. Comfortable from the first wearing.

Excellent tango sneakers -
Very comfortable. After 2.5 hours of tango practice, my feet didn’t hurt.

Great for Zumba class -
I am enjoying my new Blochs. I wear them to Zumba class 4 days a week. They make it easier to pivot and turn (less strain on my knees). Based on reviews, I ordered one full size up and they fit perfect. It is a different shoe and feel. It took me about 4 classes before I became totally comfortable with this shoe, no blisters ever. I love them. I love Zappos, too!

Super flexible -
These sneakers are perfect for anyone who has long, narrow feet like me - I've tried a lot of dance sneakers and they all feel like boats, but these hug my foot and are really comfortable. As the other reviews say, order 1-1/2 sizes bigger than you normally wear.

Fantastic -
I love these shoes! I'm a Zumba instructor, and they are fantastic for dancing and have great support. I would suggest getting a size bigger than your regular size shoes. They run small. I usually wear a 9.5 or 10, and I got a 10.5, and my next order I will get an 11. Great customer service as well!

These make the 60 minute Zumba work out fun -
I had bunion surgery last summer & was having a hard time with my feet hurting towards the end of Zumba. Now with these sneakers, I can go the full 60 minutes with no problem. FABULOUS! P.S. I did get them 2 sizes larger as suggested by other customers & they fit wonderful & they’re cute on top of that. Thank you!

They run VERY small - I normally wear a size 7 and got an 8.5. I could have probably gone up another half size as they are still a little snug.

Great shoes for dance and ZUMBA! I am a dancer, who has worn Bloch shoes in the past, so when I started taking hip hop and Zumba classes, I knew which brand I could trust. These shoes are wonderful for any type of dance or dance-aerobics.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Capezio are similar, they just don't fit narrow feet as well.

This is my fourth pair of Bloch sneakers. I'm a folkdance instructor and have had a foot injury and these are my favorite folkdance shoes...they pivot easily, give good support and resilience with hopping, jumping, changing direction, articulation and turns. I vaguely remember a bit of a learning curve in how I moved in them when I first got them, since they do sit higher than most dance shoes...maybe I was just cautious having recovered from a broken toe. The red color is fun...wish they came in spring and summer colors/fabrics too. I did not like these shoes as well for Zumba.

I love this sneaker. Bloch's Boost DRT Mesh Sneaker -
This is a perfect pick for a funky casual look with a skirt! Great arch support. I only wear Birkis in the summer and Uggs in the winter, needed a closed pretty shoe that was totally comfortable. These fit the bill perfectly. Just get it one full size larger than you need.

Good shoe but takes some getting used to. I've worn these shoes twice to toning/dance class and found they have good support, are adjustable, but take a little getting used to. You move in them, but after an hour my feet are sore. True to recommendation they run at least a full size small. I typically take an 8-8.5 and bought the 9.5, which fit fine.

Not bad, could be better -
As a Zumba instructor, these sneakers do the job. They are a little strange at first, since the fit is different to the typical tennis shoe. It's great for twists, turns, salsa, merengue, and reggaeton. Once I wear these out, I'd consider getting a shoe with better arch support. The Bloch offers medium-low arch support, which isn't bad at all.

Perfect for twists & turns -
I'm a fitness instructor who leads a variety of classes. I do not use them for all classes, but do for the ones that require me to twist & turn without placing stress on my knees while still providing support for the strength training portion of the class. I normally wear a 9 - 9 1/2 size sneaker, and purchased an 11 which fit perfectly!

I bought this shoe for work. I have a heel problem and needed support and cushion. I am on my feet for about 15 hours a day. This shoe provides me with comfort and relief. I did buy a size and a half bigger according to other reviews.

ZUMBA SNEAKER!
Start with 1 full size to 1 1/2 sizes larger than other dance shoes or street shoes. I wear 7.5 in all Capezio dance styles & I needed size 9 in Bloch Boost sneaker. Required 3 exchanges but no problem at Zappos. Boost sneaker has good support & is a great look for Zumba class. At first I ordered Capezio canvas dance sneaker but not satisfied with side support. Prefer my sneakers in wide width but the lacing on Bloch Boost makes width easier to adjust than some sneaker styles. Have purchased my dance shoes from Zappos for years & will continue to do so. Best service you'll find on the web. Thanks again Zappos!

Great For Step Classes!
It's a great shoe for the step classes that I take at least 4 times per week. It feels funny at first and the sole is quite slippery on the laminate aerobic floors. It's not very pretty on the feet, but it keeps me stepping longer since my arches don't hurt while I wear them. Previously, I have been using my custom orthotics in cardio shoes and have been replacing the shoes every 4 months because of the arch pain. I will definitely be buying these again! I wear a size 9 in most shoes, but I had to buy a 10.5.

Like the others I ordered a size-and-a-half up (I am 7.5, ordered a 9) -- they fit great! I love these and will get another pair.

Zumba shoe!
Hi, got these for Zumba. I wear a 9-9.5 and I bought the 11. I have a high arch and plantar fac. so I need to put an extra insole in, as there is no arch support. My arches are tired at the end of class. But this shoe helps me do the moves in class now because the sole doesn't stick to the floor like my cross trainers. I might try a shoe without a split sole next time.

Great for Zumba!
I'm either a 7 or 7.5, depending on the shoe. Based on the reviews here, I ordered black in 9. With thick socks, it fits just fine. But I'm ordering a second pair in 8.5, because I prefer to wear thin socks. Yes, they're slippery, especially at the beginning, but that has helped me turn better in Zumba class. My only wish is that these came in White... I like wearing white, not black, socks -- white socks with black sneakers makes me feel like a referee!

Like them!
I do like these shoes and they are pretty comfortable, funky feeling, but cool. I was hoping to get relieve from pain from high arches, it didn't bother me for the first couple of days, then same old pain, no worse no better.
They are a flexible shoe and good for dancing or working out in. I wear 6.5 to size 7 and ordered an 8 they fit fine, but definitely order a size up!

Great dance shoe -
Looks good and feels great, and I was ready to Zumba. Just know that it doesn't have the stability and grip for other aerobics, which is why it is perfect for dance where you need to pivot.

Order at least 1.5 sizes larger than your normal shoe. I wear an 8W/8.5 but ordered a 10 in this sneaker and the fit is good with thin socks. This shoe has good cushioning in heel/toe part of the sole. No-tread bottom and flexible sole make turning easy in dance class. I find them a bit slippier on floors than Nike dance fitness shoes. This shoe also has a variety of lacing options to play with for achieving a comfortable fit.
