I generally don't like the looks of most dancing heels. I've been dancing in sneakers for almost the entire time I've been dancing. My other pair of heels is a pair I sueded myself. These shoes are lovely. I like they are a very soft leather upper with a canvas on the inside. The heel cup seems a little stiff, but it was wide enough for my heel (mine are big, I got the D width) and didn't rub. I don't need much in the way of support, so I don't know how good they would be for someone who does. I'm very happy with these, and if they last, they'll probably be a go to dance heel for me.

2+ years later, the heel finally gave out. The sole and the last still are in great condition.
