Carissa 08/07/2020 Lakewood-co How do you calculate the size for a child, exactly?
The instructions are a bit confusing. My daughter wears a 2.5 in girls. So if you add 2 sizes, that would be 4.5,then subtract 2.5-3, we would order size 2 in adult. Is this correct?
Yes, the recommended size would be a 2.0 in adult based on the manufacturer suggested sizing. - DDS Customer Service (08/13/2020)
Charlotte 07/24/2019 Meridian-id I think I ordered the wrong size. My daughter wears size 2 street shoeshas very narrow feet.
What size do I order? I got her a 4A in adult. How to I exchange?
For a size 2 street shoe you first convert to adult sizing which would be a size 4. Then follow the manufacturer suggested sizing of 2.5 sizes down. The smallest size this comes in is a size 2. - DDS Customer Service (07/29/2019)
Lace27 03/02/2018 Orlando-fl Age: 22 to 29 how to choose the width size
how do I choose the width if it states A B C D E M N WW.
C is average width. If you do not typically need to wear a narrow or a wide shoe you would just choose C. If you have a narrow foot then A or B would be the best options. A wide foot would go with D or E. - DDS Customer Service (04/11/2018)
My daughter wears adult 7 1/2 street shoe. What size do I get her for ballet?
Street shoe size 7.5 should order a 5.0 - DDS Customer Service (09/05/2013)
It depends on the shoe and brand, but for these I would get a 5. If they are a little snug it's okay, they are meant to stretch to your foot. - Chase (12/31/2013)
Does she wear a true 7.5, or does she sometimes also fit a 7 or 8?
I'm a 7.5 and I ordered a 5.5C but they were too tight in the toe. However, I also sometimes wear size 8's so I may be on the "large" size of a 7.5. - Faye (03/17/2015)
My girl is in child size 1.5B. She is about to grow out of this.
Child 1.5 is the largest child size offered. would the next size up be adult size 2 (the smallest adult size offered) ? that would seem to be too large based on your formula for conversion and various reviews. Please advise what is the next size up after child size 1.5. Thanks!
The adult size 2 would be the next size up. However, that adult 2 is equivalent to about a child's size 2.5. Unfortunately this shoe does not accommodate for the middle size 2.0. - DDS Customer Service (08/29/2013)
My daughter wears a street size 2 so we had to convert and it works out to a 1.5 or a 2 so we went with the adult 2 and they fit great just a thumb size at the end for her to grow through the year. - Chele21 (09/07/2013)
You wouldnt want to get these shoes for your child since they're sizes are about 3 sizes larger actually. Try another pair of shoes that is true to their size, and get a 2. - Chase (12/31/2013)
My daughter has the same problem, and 3.5 size was too big. I am ordering a 3.0 as I want a bit of room for her to grow. - Militarymommy (11/21/2014)
Paulinha 12/31/2012 Age: 17 or under Width/Sizing?
How can I determine what width I am (e.g. A,B,C) and what would be a size for womens 9 1/2 street shoe?
A= narrow B= Narrow Medium C= Medium, if you tend to just buy medium width shoes stay with the medium width, however fitting is a suggestion not a guarantee - DDS Customer Service (01/03/2013)
Personally I am a "wide width" in shoes so I ordered a "C' and they feel fine. In Tap shoes they did not have an option, only a B width and for me they feel a little snug on the sides. If you are a 9 1/2 street shoe then go with a size 7. The recommendation for 2 1/2 sizes smaller is right on. The full sole helps me point better and the leather looks and wears beautifully. My instructor has split sole canvas purchased some where else. She was told they would wash well and stay clean. That has not been the case for her. Hope this helps! - Sddancer (07/31/2013)
A= narrow feet
B= normal
C/D= wide
For these you order about 3 sizes smaller. so try 6.5 - Chase (12/31/2013)
My street shoe size is a 9M and the Dansoft shoe I ordered in 6.5C fit nicely. Based on the size chart for this shoe, you might try a 7C, unless you have a wider or more narrow foot. - Erinm (02/04/2014)
What color are the elastic on the black Block "Dansolf" shoes?
The elastic is also black on the black slippers. - DDS Customer Service (10/09/2012)
They are a close match to the shoe. The leather is a little darker, but really it looks the same. The color of these slippers is a true ballet pink. A soft blend of tan/pink. They are very beautiful slippers. Fantastic quality, soft leather and look very expensive. I will purchase again. Make sure you go down the recommended 2 1/2 sizes from street size for a perfect fit. - Sddancer (07/25/2013)
I'm confused. You said 2.2 to 3 sizes smaller than street shoe size, but when the lady said her daug
Sorry for the confusion on the sizing. First you have to convert the child's shoe to adult size by increasing the shoe size by two and then follow the sizing suggestion of the shoe, since this is sized 2.5 to 3.0 sizes smaller than the street shoe. An adult size 5.0 should be either a 2.0 to 2.5 in this shoe. The sizing suggestions are not guarenteed. If you need further assistance please call customer service at 1-800-470-1664. - DDS Customer Service (09/28/2012)
This may be because these ballet slippers are very flexible and comform to the foot, so buying a smaller size in ballet slipper can make it look better on the foot. - Lillypointeshoereview (02/18/2013)
My first purchase was 2 sizes smaller. I had to send them back for 2 1/2 sizes smaller than my street size shoe. The recommendation is 2 1/2 sizes smaller for Adults. If you go with the sizing recommendations you will get a perfect fit, in my opinion. Hope this helps! - Sddancer (07/25/2013)
Looking at the Dansoft ballet slipper, my daughter is a size 3 in street shoes...what size should I order in ballet, jazz and tap shoes??? this gets very confusing!! thank you, Lana
All shoes will differ in sizing guidelines, however if your daughter is a street shoe size 3.0, please increase her shoe size by 2, this will be an Adult size 5.0 , then follow the sizing suggestion for each individual shoe. As for the Dansoft Style S0205L suggested fitting is 2 1/2 to 3 sizes smaller than street shoe. Suggestion would be either a 2.0 or 2.5 in this shoe, however sizing is not a guarentee. - DDS Customer Service (09/24/2012)
I agree! I ordered my exact street size tennis shoe, size 8 in Dance now Jazz shoes. they are a little snug on the sides ( I have a wide foot) but they do stretch and are very flexible. They hug your arch beautifully and look very expensive. I ordered Theatricals tap shoes with the slide, very pretty. I went up a half size because I felt a little pressure on the corner of my big toe nail. A size 8 1/2 fits perfectly. In ballet shoes I went for 6C which is the recommended 2 1/2 sizes smaller and C for a wide foot. They fit perfectly, look very expensive and feel great! Hop this helps! - Sddancer (07/25/2013)
