Gorgeous, sexy dance shoes with a Showgirl vibe
Oh my! These Latinsoul 205-31A Latin Dance Shoes are so beautiful to look at. They are covered with rhinestones, and the rhinestones are very well done. The spacing and placement of the different size stones is dramatic and creates a sparkle that is eye catching. The strappy style is so sexy on the feet - I immediately felt like a Vegas Showgirl when I put them on.Overall I think this is a great shoe and I found it very easy to dance in. I appreciate the flexible suede sole that lets me articulate though the arch and point all the way through to the toes. The shoes are also very supportive of the arch and ankle but without being restrictive. The suede soles are smooth and easy to turn in, but not slippery where you feel like you won't be able to control your turn.The fit is very comfortable, I found them to be true to size. I would definitely recommend these.

runs a full size smaller than expected, but professional dance shoes
These Latinsoul 205-31A Women's Crystal Rhinestone Strappy High Heel Latin Dance Shoes are really made for serious dancers -- the sole is made of suede instead of a firm piece of rubber or plastic or leather. I was actually surprised that the bottom of the sole was so floppy but when I did research, that seems to be normal for professional dance shoes.They are way more sparkly in person than the picture conveys. At first I thought they were too ostentatious, but upon wearing them, they actually look really nice on a dark dance floor. The jewels cover the entire shoe -- including the heel -- except for one line where the heel is sewn together. They are surprisingly comfortable to wear as well, probably because the base has enough area to support weight, and there are two buckle straps to ensure they don't fall off your feet.If they were sized correctly, I would give this 5 stars. I normally wear a size 5 in flip flops and in some dress shoes. But I couldn't even fit these on my feet. I let a teenager who wear a size 4.5 women's shoe try these shoes on, and the size 5 were still too tight on her. I really probably should have ordered a 6 or 6.5.

Excellent dance shoes
These shoes are excellent! My feet are 20.8 cm long and 22 cm in circumference around the ball of the foot, (that's a US size 3 for length and size 9 in width) and these latin shoes are the best fit I have ever experienced. I feel as balanced and in control in these shoes as I do in my practice shoes. The suede sole is very soft, softer than most brands that I have tried, which allows for great foot articulation. The shoe is a little bit long for me, but due to the softness of the sole, the shoe folds under my foot nicely instead of curling under or fighting my point. I have been dancing competitively for six years now, and I am seriously considering making these my competition shoes (even though you generally shouldn't compete in rhinestoned shoes). The dual straps around the arch and the ankle give fantastic security, which is probably why the shoes don't feel that long, even though they are too long. Upon putting them on, the width is perfect, very secure, but not so tight that I couldn't get my foot in. The width of these shoes is about the same as most size 5 latin shoes that I have tried. The straps around the ball of the foot are spaced well, so your toes can't escape by much (my 4th and pinky toes still escape the straps, but they don't get very far). Excellent shoes, highly recommend! I just hope they can make a non-rhinestoned version of this shoe in the future.

True to Size and Comfortable with a Dressy Look
I ordered these in tan, size 9, and they fit true to size. They look great on my feet and have a nice, elegant appearance without feeling overly flashy. The rhinestone details add just enough sparkle to dress them up.The shoes are more comfortable than I expected, especially for a dressy dance shoe. The satin material feels soft, and the open toe design gives them a lighter feel. I was able to wear them without discomfort, and they felt stable while moving.I like the crisscross straps and buckle, which help keep the shoe secure and provide good ankle support. They feel well balanced and not flimsy, which is important for dancing or extended wear.These work well for dance events, weddings, or other occasions where you want something stylish but still comfortable. I am happy with the fit, look, and comfort so far.

Pretty and dance ready.
Gorgeous and comfy! The material feels soft and breathable, and the rhinestone details give just the right amount of sparkle, elegant without being too much. The crisscross straps kept my feet secure while dancing. The open toe adds a feminine touch, and they fit true to size. I wore them to a Latin social and had zero issues, durable and comfortable all night. Great price at the time of the review, and I’m happy to recommend!
