Shoes
based on South African/English (UK) sizes.
Should you not be sure
of the size, stand on a piece of paper and draw the footprint, fax these
footprints to us.
Shoes should be a tight snug fit without hurting your feet.
Kiddies: Small children usually one whole size
larger than the street shoe size. Measure from the tip of the toes to
the heel and the width of the foot across the toes and send this
measurement
to us, in cm. Adults: Usually a half size smaller than the normal
street shoe-size. Court shoe ballet usually the same
size as the street shoe. Dancing
shoes should be a tight, snug fit, without hurting your feet.
Use other dancers ballet shoes in the studio to get a benchmark
of your size!
