My daughter is a ballerina and needed a pair of black ballet shoes for her role in the Nutcracker. These are perfect and just like her Capezio split sole ballet shoes. The only difference is they ran two sizes too small. I had to send them back twice, but in the end, I found the perfect size and they are very nice leather, very soft and hugged her for foot for a perfect arch!!

As a former dancer and dance teacher, I have gone through numerous pairs of ballet slippers (Capezio and Bloch). This purchase was my first new pair in many years. Knowing exactly what I was looking for, I scanned through countless shoes and then found these Bloch slippers- just what I wanted. The first day I put them on in the studio, I was able to wear them for the entire class in total comfort. FYI, my street shoe size 8, and I purchased this ballet shoe in size 5.5c. I had old Bloch shoes in a 5c, but they were slightly too small now, but going up a half size was perfect.

We use this specific ballet shoe for ballet and this size was a great fit.

just as good as they were in 1995. pretty pink colour, stretchy, high quality. a little tight at first at the elastics, but I may also have bought a half size too big. easy to wipe clean. they do their job. great for high arches. I swear they used to cost more decades ago!

Ya había comprado de otras marcas, pero se nota la diferencia de calidad con éstas. Son súper cómodas y son hermosas!!! Me ENCANTAN.Pedí media talla más grande por los comentarios en la publicación (soy 24 cm, pedí 25.5) y me quedaron grandes, pero con los elásticos se ajustan bastante bien. Igual, hubiera preferido comprar mi talla normal.

Starting up ballet as an adult. Read through so many reviews to figure out sizing. Ended up going by the sizing chart but ordered 2 sizes to compare. I’m an 8.5-9. I ordered the 6.5 and 6 and ended up keeping the 6 for a tighter fit. The 6.5 fits but once you point it creates a lot of extra space that I assume you don’t want when dancing. The 6 was perfect and will probably even stretch some due to the leather. Quality seems very good and elastics are comfortable. I love them!

First, I wear a 7.5 medium width US women's shoe and ordered the 5.5 C (regular width?).I like these shoes because of the split sole and they seem well made. I am new, so time will tell. I did notice that the shoes were too wide on my foot. If you order a normal size (not narrow or wide) it comes as a size C. I guess they think this is a proper medium width. I have gaps around the sides and I'm thinking I need to order a B (or narrow) next time. Pulling the strings didn't help overly much with that and I didn't want to pull them too tight and have them cut into my heel.Also, I have one foot that is a little smaller than the other. I didn't think this would make a big difference, but when I put the shoes on, it was very clear that I needed to order an extra pair in a 1/2 size smaller for the smaller foot. So I have a different size for each foot (and now a back of up pair of slippers in 5 and 5.5 for when these where out). So I'm good to go.The only thing I will change about my order next time is the width (I'll get the B narrow). I have the sizing down now and know I need to order two different sizes for each foot....at least in these shoes. I don't know how much they will stretch out, so I will see if I need to go down further in size when they have been used more.

I love these shoes. They fit my very narrow feet. Bloch uses the best materials to make their shoes. I have been wearing the brand for ten years and I wouldn't want to wear anything else. You should know your size before ordering. I wear a 6.5 or 7 in street shoes and a 4.5 in Bloch ballet flats. The shoes should be tight because they will stretch out after a few wears.

I have pretty much tried on 15 pairs of ballet shoes on and off Amazon to get the right ones! I am a size 7 street size with medium foot width. I ordered these in 5.5 B and they were a little tight at first in the toe area but they have been stretching out. I also tried on 5.5A and there was a bit more room the front of the toes but the side was too narrow. I suggest buying a variety of sizes to try on all at once if you have Prime membership anyway - Amazon's service is great and the refunds are prompt. I love ordering on Amazon. I also went to a Capezio store to try on Capezio and ended up getting a pair of Juliet. So with this Bloch Prolite in black and the Capezio's Juliet in pink I am all geared to start taking ballet! :) Right now I am wearing these Prolite ballet slippers around the home to get used to them. They smell, fit and look great!The elastics do come sewn on only one end so you will have to do the other side yourself - I measured the straps (crossed-over X) to a place on the sides where the slippers gape the most when I flex my feet and after the elastics are drawn. Make sure you sew close to the lining of the inside of the shoe, and not onto the elastic. It's not hard and when you're finished it feels great! The slipper will look and fit better too.
