    4.0 out of 5 starsI like them
    By SK on November 1, 2012
    Size: 12.5 M USColor: Black Verified Purchase
    No dance shoes available locally so I had to mail order. Ordered two sizes (what I normally wear in other shoes and one size bigger) and picked my normal size. Returned the larger one (thanks Amazon...) without problems. The shoes itself fits my foot quite well and it is fairly comfortable. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that at about $75 I don't consider them a real bargain. But, overall, I am happy with them.

    5.0 out of 5 starsCapezio leather dancing shoes
    By E. Pingree on April 7, 2013
    Size: 10.5 W USColor: Black Verified Purchase
    I bought these shoes for my seventeen-year-old son who takes a dancing class at his school. This is a waltz, tango, swing kind of class. He LOVES the fit and the flexibility of these shoes. They look nice, are exceptionally supple, felt broken in when first worn, and are the envy of all his classmates. The price was right for these all leather shoes.

    4.0 out of 5 starsDON'T BELIEVE THE FINE PRINT! ORDER YOUR REAL SIZE!
    By R. Railey on May 2, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    Ordered a size 14 as it says "Runs two sizes small", and got a size 14 - which of course had to go back to Amazon as it didn't fit. Ordered a 12 1/2 and it fit perfectly. Shoe is nice and light and feels broken in from the moment you put it on. Quality seems good, but I haven't used them except to walk around and practice a bit, so long term wear is unknown.

    5.0 out of 5 starsCapezio dance shoes
    By Carl H. on November 26, 2013
    Size: 11 M USColor: Black Verified Purchase
    I was concerned about the fit. I read the reviews and found most were happy with the fit, some weren't. I went to the Capezio web site which stated this model shoe should be ordered in street shoe size. Well the shoes were a perfect fit. Now I know you can't please everyone,. In my humble opinion, if you know your exact shoe size and your feet have no peculiarities don't be afraid to order these shoes in the same size as the shoes you wear daily.

    Echoing another review - these shoes run true to size.
    Bought size 14 W, my very wide size 14 paws slip right in.
    These shoes are out of the box COMFORTABLE!
    None of my usual "shoe stretcher routine needed".

    Size: 10.5 W USColor: Black Verified Purchase
    Returned. Guessed at this shoe for my husband's historical dancing needs. He normally wears a 10 - 10.5 WIDE, so I ordered the 10.5 WIDE. He commented that it was too flimsy to hold up for, he thought, more than a couple of dances. Sorry, that won't do. The seller is courteous and attentive, so we are very pleased. We tried!

    By Colorman on August 26, 2015
    Size: 9 W USColor: Black Verified Purchase
    These shoes were a bit small at the toe. I believe it is because the toe is squared versus round. They do give some with the wearing though. These are dance shoes therefore they have no arch support in there thin soles. They come with a nice bag to carry them in and are a good quality shoe. I thought of exchanging them for a half size up but the prices double and more in the other sizes. That is one of the drawbacks to shopping on Amazon.

    By balletlife on August 27, 2014
    Size: 9.5 M USColor: Black Verified Purchase
    I bought these shoes for a family member who is learning beginner's ballroom dance, because I have used Capezio's products throughout my dance. The feedback I received was positive. It is easy to move around in and is agile with pivot moves and quick turns.

    I would recommend this shoe for beginners and advanced students.

    3.0 out of 5 starsNot a true fit.

    I really expected a nice fit, based on the reviews. All dress and dance shoes (except these) fit me at 12.5 wide. So, they are in the shoe stretcher now while the blisters heal.

    I have a fairly narrow 'C' foot and low arch. I bought this shoe because the lace design feature would help secure the shoe over my low arch. Read more
