How to select a good pair of dance shoes?
As a general guideline, a good dance shoe is light in weight and offers good stability and support to the dancer. A soft padding in the shoe also provides comfort to the foot.
How to determine if the fit is right?
Dance shoes generally need to fit tighter than street shoes. A snug fit is desirable when the shoe is brand new. Once the dancer wears the shoe for a few times, it will stretch out and the fitting will be more comfortable. If the shoe is loose, it won't provide enough support to the foot. Movement of the foot inside the shoe will also cause blisters.
For an open-toe style sandal, the ideal fit is when the toes reach the end of the shoe while the heel is securely sitting in the heel cup with no or very little room. Some dancers prefer their toes hang over the edge of the shoe a little bit to achieve an even snugger fit. To determine if the shoe is the correct size/length, the dancer must push the foot to the back of the shoe as much as he/she can and check if there's a lot of room in the toe box area. If there's very little room, then the size is right.
