Customer Reviews Capezio Fierce Dansneaker®

These run small. Thanks to other reviewers I was able to order accordingly. However, they are still a little on the tight size (length wise). I didn't end up exchanging them for the next size up as I fear they'd be too big then so for now I'm using them and they are working. I am usually a size 9, but I ordered a 9.5. The support seems to be good. I am using them for Zumba. At the moment I don't see too much of a difference between them and my sneakers but I've only used them about 4 times so it's still early days.

Way small; don't be fooled into thinking these will be your size. To get anything approaching a true fit, you want a full size larger than you normally wear. I also didn't find that they were particularly supportive. They were, however, very light, which is nice.

Too tight even a size larger - Not a lot of cushion, so not so sure this will work for Jazzercise. I thought/expected better.

Good for dance class - Shoe has no cushioning, but bends well. Better than gym shoes for dance classes as it doesn't stick. However, at some points it is actually too slippery.

Not as comfortable - The sizing is bizarre, two sizes higher. The soles are good the styling is nice but they don't feel as comfortable as I was expecting. I was expecting a feel more like a sneaker.

Our daughter typically wears a 4 in shoes and we had to go with a 6. Sizing is way off on these shoes.

I have attached a picture to show that this shoe is at least two sizes too small. The picture shows a pair of oxfords size 13 on the left and and the Capezio Dansneaker on the right that is labled size 14. The pictured Dansneaker is more like a size 12 in spite of its label for size 14.

The sizing on this shoe is so off! My daughter wears a size 3, and the size 4 is too small. I am now sending them back for the second time to try the size 5.

I liked the fit of this shoe. I was going to use them for Zumba, but when I tried them out at home, they left black marks all over my floor. I am returning them.

I ordered a full size up from my usual shoe size (a half size up from what I wear in most high-end shoes like Jimmy Choos, and a full size from what I usually wear in other shoes). The length appeared to be right, though I did not have much room to spare. I did not find the shoe particularly narrow, and I have medium width feet. However, I am returning these shoes because of the hard synthetic leather over the top of the toes. At first I thought these shoes were too short even with a full size larger that I usually wear, but then I realized that actually the tip of my big toe was poking up against the synthetic leather on top of the shoe. I felt this discomfort when just trying the shoe on, and so I cannot say how it would have felt if I had tried to do Zumba in them, etc. if you have ever had issues with your big toe poking up against the top of your shoes (I have had this issue before, though rarely), do not buy these shoes. Try a pair that has softer material across the top of the toe box, such as the Capezio Canvas Dance Sneaker (bought these in a half size up from my normal size and am returning for the next size up because they are too short, though still more comfortable for my toes than these ones). I'm also going to try the Rockit style.

I have had other Bloch dance sneakers in the past so knew to order a size larger than I usually wear, so the fit was ok. However, the overall quality and construction of these shoes is terrible. They are stiff and flimsy and have absolutely no support. I returned them and won’t order that model again.

Dissapointed! Shoes arrived in a used and scraped brand names box. The tread showed obvious use. Paper stuffed inside was old and worn. One eyelet ring was broken. I will not order from Zappos again. This is unacceptable. Just got the shoes today and processing a return.

Capezio was supposedly established in 1867. One would think that during that nearly 150 years someone at the company would have learned to use a ruler. One size larger wasn't even close and the size is so far off I am not going to waste any more time trying to find a good fit. I usually buy Bloch and will again. Thanks to Zappos for the free return.

I ordered a size 14. I have never had a problem with a shoe ordered in this size. I made ther mistake of putting them on to travel because my other Capezio same size fit perfectly. This pair my toes look like they had been hit with a hammer. Black,blue and red. I think the size is mislabeled.

This shoe is so uncomfortable. It is so tight on your toes, and this is after ordering a size bigger than I normally wear. I put them on for 10 minutes and knew immediately that this was not for me. I have normal sized medium width foot with no abnormalities and these shoes were almost painful.

I bought these shoes to replace a pair of these exact shoes that lasted me for four years.I have been wearing these now for almost 3 months, and they have started falling apart at the seams! I am surprised at how poor the quality is. Maybe I just got a pair of lemons. But a pair of dance shoes should last longer than 3 months, especially since I only take one or two dance classes a week. I am very disappointed in the quality, but I'm not sure what to do next.
