Capezio Character Shoe - I bought this shoe for my daughter who is always in school plays. She says it is very comfortable even after several hours of rehearsal. However, please note that the shoe runs small and required a full size larger than her normal shoe size for a comfortable foot.

The Shoe That Does ALL - I am an actress and dancer in need of a versital shoe and this one did the job. They look gorgous feel great, and they're classy enough to wear out! They are sturdy and support your arch very well. This shoe tend to run a bit small so I recommend a full size larger.

A size too small? Maybe not. I purchased these shoes a full size large following the advice of the other reviewers. These shoes felt a little too big, although they do run a little narrow, since the width is perfect on me even though it's a size too big. They're very comfortable and I'm waiting for Zappos to get more in stock before I exchange them for a smaller size.

Sizing - Definitely order a full size larger than your street shoe for this item. I'm an 8.5 and the 9.5 fit perfectly. It could also use a little more room in the toe-box, but it has been stretching with wear. Other than that, great shoe!

Great Stage shoe - definitely follow the guidelines for the sizing, they run small. I use these on stage and love them. they are comfortable and i am able to dance in them and wear them for extended periods of time. It might be a good idea to get some grips for the bottoms though, they can get slippery on stage.

Disappointed - These shoes need to be ordered 1 whole size larger than your normal shoe size. The most UNcomfortable shoes I have ever had. How can you dance in these things?

Very Nice! I love this shoe. But buy it a size larger than your regular size because these sizes run small.

Perfect - I ordered the shoes to replace the ones my daughter had for her drill team. The ones were worn. They fit perfectly, exactly the same shoes as the other girls. The best part was the cost, free shipping (which I got in 2 days) and not having to place a bulk order of shoes for only a pair.

Looks snappy! A very simple design but elegant looking shoe. Bought to wear at a wedding where they'd be worn and danced in all night long. I found they run a bit small and if you know your feet are prone to swelling you should definitely order a bigger size. Still, they did the job and they're really just so beautiful.
Brands I'd also recommend: Rockports, Earth Shoes, Hush Puppies

No room for big toe! This would have been the perfect pair of dance shoes, if only there had been room for my toes! The vamp of the shoe tapers down to the tip so severely that my big toes were squished down! Too painful to wear longer than 10 minutes. Good advice to buy at least a half size larger than street shoes for overall comfort.

Order a size bigger! Nice shoe -- this synthetic version looks more elegant than the leather one. However, it's at least a full size too small. I normally take an 8, ordered an 8.5, and I'm passing them on to a friend, who usually takes a 7.5 but found them a perfect fit. Meanwhile, I've ordered a 9.

Capezio Jr. Footlight - Very good beginning tango practice shoe. Bought 1/2 size larger than regular shoe size and it fits well. Does not have much cushioning, a gel insert helps a lot. A good shoe for a low price.

width - The shoes are very nice but to narrow even though I ordered wide width, I have spent 10.00 to have them stretched.I wear size 5 or 51/2 wide and these were way to narrow. Thanks Marily Kub

Buy a large size - The previous reviews are correct, this shoe runs a full size small. Don't be vain like I was, go ahead and purchase the LARGER size. Normally I can fit a 9N but had to go with the 10N. Other than that, it fits well, and feels great. Wonderful shoe to dance the night away in.

Good shoe but small - I ordered a half size larger but should have ordered a full size larger. The place where the shoes were uncomfortable was in the toe, noticeable after about a half hour of wear. They look good, especially for the price, but I wish I had ordered larger. I read the previous reviews and ordered larger but I just didn't go big enough.
