FAQs
What size should I order?
Refer to the Slazenger size chart and measure your child's foot carefully. It's recommended to measure both feet and use the larger measurement when in doubt.
Can these shoes be used for other dance styles?
These shoes are designed specifically for ballet. Using them for other dance styles may not be appropriate.
How do I break in the shoes?
Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase the wear time. This will allow the leather to soften and conform to the foot.
How often should I replace the shoes?
The lifespan of the shoes depends on frequency of use and care. Inspect them regularly for wear and tear, and replace them when they no longer provide adequate support or fit properly.
Can I wash the shoes in a washing machine?
No, do not machine wash the shoes. This can damage the leather and the sole. Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth.
What if my child's feet are wide?
These shoes may not be suitable for wider feet. Consider consulting with a dancewear specialist to find shoes with a better fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight.
Leather shoes can stretch over time. Try wearing the shoes with thicker socks initially, or consult a professional shoe fitter.
Leather is cracking.
This may be due to dryness. Apply leather conditioner as directed.
Sole is separating from the upper.
Contact the manufacturer or retailer for a possible replacement.
