4 Sizing
4.1 How do I make sure I order the right size?

Great question! Dancewear and dance shoes do not fit like regular apparel or shoes. Here are some guidelines and links to supplier size charts to help:

1. Dancewear should fit snug to the body and follow the curves and spine for a proper fit. Start with your regular clothing size but do not go up a size for growth! We suggest using the girth as an accurate fit guide.

2. Dance shoes vary in their fit depending on the discipline and manufacturer. Ballet shoes should fit snug like a sock and we often recommend starting 1-2 sizes down from your street shoe. We recommend following the supplier fit guidelines.

3. Jazz and tap shoes should fit to the end of the toes with a tiny bit of room. Dance shoes stretch so they should fit snug at first as they will loosen up.

4. It is important that tap shoes, for example, fit well. A young dancer who is learning to tap needs to be able to feel the floor with their toe taps in order to control their sounds. If a tap shoe is too big, the dancer cannot learn to tap!
