Great experience

I received my order quickly. Unfortunately, the shoes did not fit, but customer service was very quick and friendly, and we were able to come up with a solution.

The only complaint is the shipping fees. It’s more expensive than the other

Dear Annie,

Many thanks for taking the time to review us, we're glad you like the shoes. Sadly shipping costs are expensive these days and unfortunately as a company hand-making shoes here in the UK we can't subsidise them as the cost of making the shoes is also very high. As you are based in the US, take a look at the link below, to our store locator as it could be less expensive for you to buy locally!

Fast delivery; great quality

I was surprised it only took about a week to get my shoes shipped to U.S. I loved the free feature to have my shoes monogrammed. When received, I liked the look of the shoe and the heel is slightly different than standard 1 inch shoes I own.

Quality Shoes!

Both pairs of my Ballroom and Latin shoes fitted like a glove! To those of you who are "novice buyers" you need a half size bigger than your normal shoes. Be mindful of the width of the widest part of your foot verses the style you would like when choosing if you are a narrow or wide fit. They need to fit "snuggly" as the shoes will stretch to your foot but you don't want it to much as you then slip in your shoes! Check if you have a high or low instep to the shoe you would like verses the height and style of the heel you can dance the most proficiently in (without the least amount of discomfort)!

A natural part of me!

This is my third pair of shoes from International Dance Company and I love them! I practice a lot in the actual competition shoes and my feet are fine even after hours of practicing. I've purchased both Standard and Latin IDS 2.5 inch, as I find this height and heel well balanced. I have wide feet, so I order W round toe that fits very well, too. I wish the Latin shoes had a little more arch support, nevertheless I am pleased with my choice. These shoes feel like a natural part of me when I dance. In the future, I will be buying more from this company.

Dear Anders,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Brands may vary a little bit and it's not unusual to be one size in one brand but another in a different brand. Our staff are always around to help provide advice. The shoes that you ordered are a stock item, so you're more than welcome to exchange.

Many thanks,
International Dance Shoes

Dear Irina

Many thanks for taking the time to write a review. We're sad to get 3-stars because your shoes are too small :(

The shoe you ordered is a stock shoe so you're more than welcome to send that back and order half a size up (or simply return them and request an exchange). Either way we'd be able to get a new size out to you very quickly!

Many thanks,
International Dance Shoes
