These character shoes run at least 1/2 size small, and the toe box is very narrow. Save time by ordering 1/2 size larger than normal. Since they are not leather, they do not "give," but they serve the purpose. I wore them for community theater.

I was happy that this is offered in a W (most dance shoes aren't), but even that wasn't wide enough for my feet: I had to stretch them. I usually wear a 6 or 6-1/2, but even in the 6-1/2, my toes were too close to the front, so I exchanged them for a 7. The soles are very slick; I recommend getting suede soles put on (if you can find a shoe maker who will do it), or rough up the soles. But these look more elegant than anything else I've found for my wide feet. I'm happy with them.

Comfortable shoe, easy to use for dance classes. Not really something for going out. The ankle strap was a little tricky to adjust the first few times I used it and you definitely can't slide your feet into the shoes with the strap already set - will have to adjust it every time you put them on. I wear anything from a 4-5 in low heels and the 5 fit perfectly.

I love these shoes! I always have trouble finding heels that stay on my feet. The strap keeps the shoe from slipping off in the back, which I love. I ordered a 9, which is my actual size, and although the toes are a slight bit cramped, they don't feel cramped because the leather is soft and molds to your foot. The heel is a perfect height for me, and the shoe can be used to dress up or dress down an outfit. They have a classic look and are very attractive on my feet. I definitely recommend them.

Love capezios as a rule, and would have taken this and made it work, but found another that fit more comfortably, but twice the price.

Functional shoe for its cost.
After reading many reviews, I ordered this shoe a half size and a full size larger than my 8 1/2W street shoes.
At a half size larger, it was snug and felt as if it would mildly hurt after prolonged dancing.
At a full size larger, it felt slightly long, but the width was just right and did not feel it would hurt after prolonged use.

My daughter loves this shoe, but we did have to get a 1/2 bigger than usual. My daughter also has narrow feet and this shoe was great for her. She wears it for interviews for pageants.

This shoe has a cushion in the arch area of the foot and this made it comfortable.

These are great, basic performing shoes with a smaller heel. I dance and walk in them and found them to be generally comfortable. I am tall and do not need or want a high heel, especially if I am doing steps, etc. This heel was the perfect height. I am 59 and had to put on my reading glasses to put the strap through the last loop. I wish they had a t-strap type dancing shoe in this price range--then you can slip the shoes on and off without constantly using the strap. I recommend these shoes.

Very cute and ladylike, with very manageable heel height, I've gone to business functions and weddings in these. My complaint will be how slippery it is whenever you walk on vinyl floor; also, if your feet are anything wide - the D will clip your feet. They do seem to stand up well in time - it's been a year, and I've worn it for about a dozen times, over pretty rough surface and in long distance some times - and they still look like they're brand new. Highly recommended, just watch out for the width!

After reading the reviews, I changed my order to a half size larger than normal. I wish I had also changed the width! These shoes are most definitely small and narrower than most manufacturers. Be sure to order accordingly.

I ordered these shoes on Wednesday afternoon and on Thursday they were sitting on my porch when I got home from work. I was very impressed. I ordered one whole size larger and the wide. They are too big, perhaps if I had not gottem the wide, but they feel great. I danced for 3 hours the first time I wore them and had no problems at all. I just pull the strap tight. I do have problems with the buckle, I have a difficult time getting the strap through bottom part of the buckle. Hopefully that will improve. I\'m thinking about ordering the same shoe in tan.

Comfort when it's really needed - Very comfortable. Had to re-order a full size larger and then I had to add an insole because the fit wasn't tight enough for dance class. In the end, I'm very happy and would recommend to any beginning dance student.

Normal size is a 10. Ordered previously and it was too tight. Ordered a 10.5 and 11. 11 was too large and 10.5 fit.
Nice style shoe but if you are a serious dancer who wears suede bottom shoes this shoe is hard on the sole and the upper portion is hard and does not have stretch room

A whole size larger still put pressure on my big toe.
Quality I see average. You get what you pay for.

Lovely dance shoe.
Too bad the maker is not making them “true” to size.
These run very narrow, and a med width will not fit
A lot of people.

These shoes are cute. However, the fit at the forefoot was too tight. The length is fine. I ordered 6 wide, which matches my street shoe size. I need a pair of dancing shoes for ballroom and swing, and all my shoes are non skid so I need something that will rotate me without friction. If these shoes had more square forefoot, I think I would have kept them. I am returning because the shape of the forefoot squeezes my toes. However, if your toes are the right shape, these shoes would be fine.

A little narrow for a wide shoe, especially in the toes.

Shoes were too small. I ordered my usual size, 7 1/2, and chose "wide" because I intended to wear for dancing. Too snug, too short in the toe box. I'm returning, not exchanging for larger size becauase I sense the width still will be too snug.

I guess I should have known, if these were designed for dancing, maybe they aren't designed to be worn outside. Ran small, impractical. Must return.
