MSMAX Women's Ballet Dance Shoes Split Sole Satin Gymnastic Flats with Ribbon

width

I also would prefer the ribbon to be just a hair wider and darker to match the shoe better

but I could tell the color and width wasn't perfect by the photo online so I can't be mad about that.

uncomfortable

When she first tried them on, she thought they felt uncomfortable.

ballet

near the end the main character receives a pair of red ballet slippers, & my daughter wants to be the main character so badly!

She gets so many compliments from the other girls at ballet.

Cute - Good Quality
We bought these because my daughter dances ballet and she's obsessed with the animated movie Leap!

I actually think it's b/c they are more supportive than her regular ballet slippers (thicker).

My daughter absolutely loves anything to do with ballerinas and ballet.

inexpensive

I'm just stoked they are cheap, the right color for my costume and very COMFORTABLE.

ballerina

comfortable

She even walked around in the for Trick-or-Treat and was comfortable the whole time.

These are comfortable and include an elastic band to help them stay in place.

Nice snug fit around the ankle and she has a pretty narrow foot.

PROS: Much more Comfortable than I thought it would be.

She wears a 2-2.5 and the 2.5 fit perfect.

had to return/exchange

but for anything else I'd probably return and order something a bit nicer.

Great ballet soft shoes at a great price!

They are perfect because they don't have ties like other ballet slippers, and they are inexpensive.

Perfect
These are phenomenal ballet shoes.

They are the correct "ballet pink" color for her classes and recitals.

daughter

Perfect for my daughters dance class
As we all know these aren't always the prettiest shoes for dance,

I would suggest these as they have held up to my daughter's dance classes for the past few months.

My daughter is growing like a weed, and struggles to tie her shoes, so these are great!

My daughter loves to dance in these shoes!

they fit just as they should, and we use them to this day.

These almost have a wide fit- they make her feet look like duck feet.

They fit her well, and she says they are really comfortable.

But after about 2-3 wears the glitter started coming off.

size

However, I chose a size too small, thinking maybe I could go with a smaller size.

but it is one size bigger than real size.

If you plan to order size 7, order size 6 instead.

I’m sending back and going for a size 6 1/2.

Love the look of these ballet flats.

Buckle in front is cute- not cheap looking.

Excellent & Comfortable Fit
I have been looking for flats for months and had ordered 2 pairs of shoes that I had to return due to an inaccurate fit for a size 6 woman's shoe.

Capezio Women's Flex Master Tap Shoe

sole

Unfortunately, the rubber sole started to come away from the shoe after just a couple of wears.

There's no padding in the foot bed with very little padding in the heel,  They are too small to add any inserts for extra padding.

The shoes come with a blue poron (high density foam) inner sole, which for some odd reason runs from the rear of the shoe through the arch,

This is a mystery to me - I think tap dancers, like me, spend more time on the ball of the foot than the heel, so why the padding doesn't extend there is baffling.

The inner sole does crack over time (8-10 months) from going up on toes and pointing,

but it doesn't make the shoe uncomfortable.I can see that having the inner sole cover the entire shoe bed would mean more cracking, but surely they could have separate pad at the ball of the foot, and keep a heel pad if needed.

In fact, too soft and flexible for me because I could feel the edge of the heel transfer through to the insole.

The flex sole is stiffer out of the box than the Capezio.

but my daughter always wears a 3 M and these 4 W were way too small.

Should have gone up 1/2 size
I wore these shoes for a tap class within an hour of receiving them.

The second time I wore them, the ball of my left foot and left heel became fatigued and ached.

The shoe sizes street shoe to slightly small - I'm a 6 1/2 or 7, and the 6 1/2 fits me; I wear a 7 1/2 Bloch dance sneaker.

but one shoe stretched out too much due to a foot brace I wore for much of last year.

Now that I'm not wearing it, I can't tighten the shoe enough.

heel

For my purposes, the heel is somewhat of a bummer.

This shoe at least doesn't have a leather wrapped heel, which looks ratty after about a week in my case (sorry Bloch).

- The heel is rather long and extends forward almost to the arch.

sole heel

It looks and feels somewhat like a ballet shoe mounted on heels - Very soft and flexible right out of the box.

They were comfortable for the 1 1/2 hour class.

but not have the discomfort of wearing Irish hard shoes for hours a day.

- The blue insole is comfortable at the heel

Bloch Tap-Flex: - Shaped more like an Oxford, wider at the ball and tapering toward the toes - Soft leather upper.

durable

My absolute favorite shoe by Leo's, since discontinued, had a solid, high-density plastic heel, and it was great.
