FAQs

Q: Can I wear these outside?
A: They’re built with a suede dance sole, save them for indoor floors to keep that delicious glide.

Q: How do I get the right fit?
A: Zip in, then use the laces to micro-adjust over the forefoot and instep. If you’re between sizes, most dancers size down for a snug, performance fit.
