Customer Reviews Bloch Boost DRT Mesh Dance Sneaker

Pay attention to Reviews on Sizing - Taking the advice of other reviewers, I ordered a full size up from my sneaker size and they are snug to small. I am hopeful that they will stretch a bit so I'm keeping them. I purchased the black because I didn't care for the design of the colored versions. Would like to see a bit of color detail somewhere on the shoe...perhaps the lace straps. Anyhow. They feel great. Spin pretty well on hard floor. I will be using these for a Zumba class. Here is how I order shoes: Dress shoes: 6.5 Sneaker: 7 Bloche: 7.5 (8 would have been a better choice)

Great dance sneaker! I love this shoe for Zumba. It conforms really well to my high arches, is very comfortable, and allows a wide range of motion. I ordered one size larger, and it is a perfect fit (I do have narrow feet, though).

Great for Zumba!! I purchased these shoes for my Zumba class and I love them!!! My knees no longer hurt!! They do run small. I normally wear an 8 and I ordered a 9.5.

Excellent buy - My ballet teacher wears these and I decided to purchase them. She explained they were good for the arch as well as for practice. I received a note from Zappos who gave the shipment to me. I received them earlier than I anticipated and haven't taken them off since. They feel wonderful and make me feel good. I recommend them to everyone.

Great shoe... even greater customer service! Based on reviews I had read, I ordered my shoe 2 sizes larger - perfect fit! As a matter of fact, I've just come from Zumba class and the shoes performed wonderfully.

I do love the shoe, it serves its purpose for my dance class. But I am in between sizes. I wear a size 11 narrow shoe and the Bloch shoe size 12.5 is too small lengthwise but the 13 is too wide. If there were extra shoelace holes farther back on the ankle then I could probably tighten them enough, but they don't.

This shoe runs very small to size. I had to order a whole size larger than my street shoe size.

I just bought these shoes for my zumba class and they were wonderful. Immediately my knees felt better as I can now pivot on the ball of my foot. They are comfortable, and I would definitely recommend going up 1 to 1 1/2 sizes. I have a wide foot and the look is okay, but not much I can do about that, not many shoes look that great on my foot IMO.

Great shoe, amazing service! I was looking for shoes to do line dancing and ballroom dancing. I ordered these online from Zappos at 7:30pm one evening, and they were at my door at noon the next day, at no extra charge. You just don't find service like that anywhere else. I LOVE the shoes. They are comfortable, slide and turn easily, but still offer great support; and I think they're cute. After reading the reviews, I ordered a size 10 (I normally wear 8 or 8 1/2), and they fit perfectly.

Greatest place to shop! The service was outstanding - faster than I paid for even. The notes on the shoe helped me pick the right size first time. Several people had said to be sure and order a size to a size and a half larger than usual. I ordered one size up and it is perfect! I rated the look as a one only because these aren't exactly what you would call pretty, but great for aerobic dance classes.

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!

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.

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.

Bloch Mesh Sneakers - Overall I really love these sneakers! They are light weight while still being supportive and comfortable.

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!

Love these shoes! Very comfortable just had to order a size bigger because they run small.

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!

Fabulous sneaker - 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.

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.
