Good Dancing Shoes, Slim Cut, OK Construction
These GYUBL Men's Latin Dance Shoes are perfect for anyone who does Jazz or Ballroom dancing and wants a very lightweight and comfortable shoe to move in. They look stylish and the leather has a nice light sheen to it without being too shiny. It's a thin leather that has a lot of flex to it but still give decent support to the sides of your foot.The bottom of the shoes is a layer of suede that seems like it would be perfect for sliding and gliding around the dance floor. The shoe is well vented and allows your foot to breath which is great for high energy dancing as well as slow ballroom movements. My one caveat is the shoe has a very thin cut to it, if you have a wide foot, definitely look for something else. If you wear a W size sneaker or shoe, your foot most likely won't even fit in it. I wish they were wider, maybe it just needs a lot of stretching. They are made of decent materials but I wouldn't exactly call this high quality, they leave a bit to be desired in how they are put together. The price point is commensurate with the product, so these might make a good dance shoe for a beginner that you don't mind marring up a little. They still look nice, and would protect the dance floor from getting damaged and enable for gliding movements and turns. I give them four out of five stars.

High Quality Dance Shoes that Fit True to Size
I feel like these GYUBL Men's Latin Dance Shoes are a high-quality and comfortable option for indoor dancing. I initially ordered them thinking I could use them as normal dress shoes, but they are specifically designed for a dance floor with felt bottoms.While I am not an expert on dance shoes, they seem well-made and fit true to size; I ordered a size 10 and the fit is just right. I plan to take dance lessons with my wife soon, so I feel they will come in handy for that specific use. I would recommend these if you need true dance shoes with suede soles for indoor floors, but I'd suggest not ordering them if you are looking for standard outdoor dress shoes.

Decent shoes for dancing!
This review is for: GYUBL Men's Latin Dance Shoes 1 Inch Heel Ballroom Salsa Tango Waltz Character Dancing Shoes with Suede Sole (10, Black)My dance shoes are 20+ years old and it is time for a new pair. These shoes are a reasonable price. The cushioning is comfortable and laces stay tied. The soles are sueded leather. I am more of a ballroom style guy but as most social ballroom dance events include latin dance as well, these shoes will do just right.As for fitment, I really do recommend following their sizing guide. If you have slightly big feet for your size go up a half size. My feet are actually just slightly bigger (and wider) than standard 9.5. I use 9.5 for almost all my regular shoes. But for these I took a chance and ordered the 10. It is a perfect fit. Dance shoes tend to be a little more tight in sizing in my experience, so take what you will from that statement.I subtracted one star for craftsmanship. The tongue on the right shoe is attached crooked. There are some popped stitches around the ankle on the left including an inch long "loop" loose thread. Last is the glue residue around the edge of the sole on the uppers.Wearing white socks just for the purpose of good contrast in the pictures. Their durability is a matter of time and opportunity to dance so I will update this when I can with information on longevity.

Comfortable, Stylish, and Great for the Dance Floor
These GYUBL Latin dance shoes are lightweight, well-balanced, and very comfortable for long practice sessions. The suede sole gives just the right amount of glide for salsa and ballroom, and the 1-inch heel provides solid stability.

Flexible, dancing shoes.
I was pleasantly surprised by these men’s Latin dance shoes, they turned out to be much better than I expected. The first thing I noticed was the cushioned insole, which added unexpected comfort, and the suede sole slipped nicely on the floor: a good balance of grip and glide. My husband has narrow feet, so we ordered a half size up. While the fit was slightly slim for a men’s shoe, the extra length gave his toes plenty of room, and they still felt good overall. The lace-up design is secure and stays tied well. These will be perfect for an upcoming father-daughter dance. Small hiccups: the sticker on the bottom was tricky to remove, I probably should’ve just used a black Sharpie to cover it and the tongue in one of the shoes was slightly crooked, but it looked okay when on tied. Flexibility-wise, the shoes move well with the foot, and for the price, they’re a good choice if you’re testing the waters with dance or need something without overspending.The white socks on purpose to be able to better see the shoes.

Poor Quality
The quality of these men’s Latin dance shoes is poor. The tongue on the left shoe is not centered but goes to the left inside the shoe. It was glued or secured that way. Inside the shoe at the big toe area, there is a bump from an eyelet, which could cause irritation; the rim around the shoe feels thick and hard, which might rub against the ankles; the suede material on one shoe goes outside the shoe surface; the green line inside the shoe shows that the padding was not aligned correctly. Altogether, these shoes are cheaply made.
