User Ratings and Reviews

3 Stars Character Shoes
Like most people have said, I’d suggest a half size up from your regular shoe size. I had bought character shoes from this company before, so I was pretty sure how they’d fit, but they changed the material they use for the top of the shoe since my first purchase. Now the black cover on the upper part of the shoe scuffs off VERY easily. I have only used mine for one show and there are already places where the top layer is rubbing off. I’m hoping that some black shoe polish or something like it will help.

3 Stars STYLE
I like the shoe–takes time to break in so shoe begins to fit the mold of your foot, like all Capezios. Comfortable. Really bought this shoe for everyday wear, since I like taupe to elongate your leg and foot. Makes you feel like a dancer!

5 Stars Amazing Shoes
I have never gotten a pair of character shoes before, so I thought they were going to be sooo uncomfortable and hard to dance in like regular high heeled shoes. They were sooo comfortable. I wore them out first and my feet were not in dire pain when I got home. Instead of half a size difference from my street shoe I got a whole size difference, which worked well. They are comfortable and easy to dance in. I definitely recommend them for a short dance for a beginner.

3 Stars Too Small
The shoe is nice but they run really small. I am not sure if this is how dance shoes are supposed to fit but I wear a size 9. So I bought a size 9..they were tight so I exchanged them for a 9.5…they are still tight in the toe area. Be careful!!

5 Stars Great, comfortable dancing shoes!
I’ve been dancing in these for 6-10 hours a week for the past month, and love them. They’re comfortable (and it’s hard for me to find comfortable heels since my feet are wide, but the regular medium width was perfect), and the 1.5 inch heel is great for dancing on the balls of your feet without killing them (but I also added a gel insole for more comfort). These shoes do run 1/2 size small, though, so order up 1/2 size.
