Customer Reviews TIC TAC TOES Grace

Magic Dancing Slippers - I love my new magic dancing slippers. They make me feel elegant as I glide across the floor. They are comfortable and the look is cute...like Mary Janes, only with two straps crossing. The one drawback for me has been working the strap fastener. It is hard for me to reach and to loosen to take the shoe off. But my most exciting experience was with the shipment of the shoes. I live in Hawaii and have to wait many times for deliveries. In this case, I ordered the shoes on Friday, and received them at my door on Tuesday. Thank you, Zappos.

OUCH! These shoes look good & feel really comfortable for the 1st hour & then it's downhill from there. I am working an 8 hr shift this evening & can already see the blisters! Arrrgg, can not wait to take them off!

Not great quality - The make of the shoe looks kind of cheap. From far away, it looks fine but the sole is not sewn on exactly right, and the elastic on the sides also looks cheap.

Beware! These shoes are comfortable and great to dance in, but are not well made. I ordered a pair of Grace dance shoes from Tic Tac Toe in 2007, and the first time I wore them, the entire heel broke off the shoe as I was walking down a set of stairs, scary. I sent the shoes back to TTT for repair, and after the repair, the same thing happened. The heel broke off at a dance. (I am 5'8 at 140 lbs). I then asked the company for a full refund as I was not satisfied with the poor quality, and was refused the refund entirely. Poor customer service, etc. Now that TTT is selling through Zappos, I hope this does not happen again, or that more is done to correct the situation.

I often wear a 7.5 or an 8 at the most. These dance shoes really do run small, and that can cause pain on the dance floor. I've never worn an 8.5 so why would I even think of ordering that size! Wish they were true to size!

In my ongoing search for a good pair of ballroom dance shoes in a wide width, I decided to try a pair of these. Thank goodness for Zappos generous shipping policies or I would not be able to continue trying to find the right shoes. This shoe is really cute and out of the box, looks great. However, when I put them on, they gapped strangely outward on either side. They are very soft, so there is no real shape to the shoe and though they are extremely comfortable, the strange bulging outward makes them so unattractive on my feet, I am sending them back. I am not sure if the problem is that they are too narrow and they are just so soft, my foot can fit and push them out to the sides or what. I would be wearing them for dance lessons if it weren't for the gapping/bulging on the sides.

Watch out! Easy to twist your ankle in these shoes - I never made it off my living room carpet with these shoes, so I don't know how they would perform on a dance floor. But I can say that as soon as I stood up in these shoes, I had a lot of heel pain. They are not cushioned inside. I got the wide width, but they were still too tight. The worst thing about them is that something about the way the heel is made; it is very easy to twist your ankle in these shoes.

What a difference a half size larger and wider makes - I purchased two pair of your shoes, Grace. Pewter colored pair fit fine and looked good. Black pair, same size, was too tight and short, returned same. Ordered a replacement pair of black shoes, 1/2 size larger and in wide width. Replacement shoes arrived, were much too wide and large and straps had hairy threads up and down all sides. Obvious poor quality construction. Wore shoes to meet dance show commitment. Opinion of heel sole--not suitable for ballroom dancing, replaced same with suede as on sole of shoes. Your telephone order service and delivery process excellent.
