BlochDance Women's Broadway Lo Character Shoe

We ender up trying 6 different pair of character/ballroom type shoes like this from Amazon, after trying on only Capezios at a dance shop. We read these are supposed to be tight but when used as character shoes and not as a dancer, you don't have months to break them in. Many shoes we tried were very tight in the front and too long behind the heel even though my daughter does not have wide feet. That's just how they are made. So for a typical size 7 Medium foot, we ended up satisfied enough to keep these in a 7.5 Wide. This made them just big enough to comfortably wear.

IF YOU ARE A SIZE 6 IN NORMAL SHOE.. THEN ORDER A SIZE 7.5 !!!I LEARNED THE HARD WAY AND HAVE HAD TO PURCHASE 3 DIFFERENT PAIRS!! THE ARE AN EXCELLENT SHOE, THEY JUST RUN VERY SMALL .. SO BUY A SHOE SIZE , 1 1/2 size larger than your normal size!!

Comfortable and classic style

All my shoes are size 10. I got this in a 10 and could not put my foot in it. Also looks poorly put together in a couple of places. And it’s not real leather! Caveat emptor!

The shoes like they were a half size smaller, and I could not get them on my feet. I usually buy heels at a larger size for comfort, but did not this time. I have problem feet. My second toes are longer than my big toes and I have significant bunions. Shoe buying is a process. No negatives for the shoes.

Good character shoes, run a bit small in the toe area and have standard straps instead of quick-release buckles. But overall alright purchase.

Didn’t fit quite right

I need an 11.5 M but that size does not yet exist so I figured I would try the 12 Mexpecting it to be a bit too big and possibly inserting an extra insole.The shoe was too small. Not sure if it was just this one pair or maybe this shoe runs small.I will be returning them. I gave a three star rating because I cannot answer those questions if the shoe is too small..

I followed what the other reviews say and ordered a size and a half bigger than what I normally wear. They actually fit very comfortably.These shoes have nice soft insoles in them which make them super comfortable to wear. I did end up putting duct tape on the bottom of them to give them a little bit more grip without fully covering the suede soul. Worked perfectly. These are a great pair of character shoes for the price and they’re a trustworthy brand, so what’s not to like?

My regular size for shoes is 7 and based on many other reviews about the Bloch dance shoes I decided to order one full size up, so I ordered the 8M. It fits perfectly ! I highly recommand to everyone to order one full size up from their regular street shoe size ! I also read a review where someone posted a picture of a pair of Capizio and a pair of Bloch shoe side by side, and it was clearly noticable that the Capizio was much more narrow than the Bloch. I do have a little wider feet, so I decided to order the Bloch 8M and thanks to all the reviews it turned out to fit perfectly ! Capizio model would be most likely too narrow for me. You will also receive a pair of rubber sole for the Bloch shoes in case you want to make them not so slippery . For dancing it is perfect with the lether sole as it is !

I purchased these because I like to have a comfortable shoe on the occasions I dance. I am not a "Dancer" I figured if dancers wear these then they will be good for me. I like that they are leather an the ankle strap makes them feel secure. I have not had the opportunity to try them out for dancing. but so far i am happy with this purchase.

The shoes are very nice and look comfy. However, the sizing provided on the sellers description page is so wrong. The shoes run very small for Wide Width and the size 7 US is like 5.5-6 US regular- not wide. Advice for seller: put the correct description/conversion of the size. I was really looking forward to wearing these shoes only to find out they don't fit. Unfortunately there is size 8 and I am afraid 9 would be too loose. Nice shoes- wrong size description.

My wifeI usually buys. a size 6 but ordered 6/1-2 after reading reviews that the shoes are a small fit. Returned them and ordered size 7 and they fit perfectly. My wife doesn’t usually wear heels but these were very comfortable and the perfect shoe for her Tango class. They slide nicely without being being too slippy. Suggest buying one size up from your day shoe size.
