Princess Lexie's Mom 08/19/2014 Philadelphia, Pa, Usa Age: 35 to 44 How does the sizing run?
My 5 year old is just starting with ballet and tap and I think these shoes would be great since they have the elastic and the school wants elastic or tap ties (tap ties wouldn't be necessary now - right?); however I am confused with the sizing. She wears a size 10, but some shoes seem too narrow for her. I am thinking the elastic may give her a little more room? Any suggestions on whether I should order a 10 or 10.5?
The elastic should help with some of the width towards the top. However, if it is her toe box that is too wide it may not make much of a difference. If she has a wider foot I would recommend going with the wide width for the extra room. - DDS Customer Service (08/20/2014)
We just started tap also, and we went with a size up for my 4 year old. She fits perfecting into an 11 right now so we went with a 12, and although they are a little long, they fit her fine otherwise. the elastic will allow for growth. - Mtdewmommy3 (09/15/2014)
I can tell that the heel taps are screw in, but from the photo it is hard to tell if the ball taps have screws as well.
The heel taps on this shoe are screwed on, however the toe taps are riveted to the shoe, meaning they cannot be removed. - DDS Customer Service (07/22/2013)
It appears that they are nailed in. - Ashleysmom (03/13/2014)
The heels are screwed in but the ball taps are nailed (or riveted?) in. Hope that helps! - Militarymommy (06/15/2014)
My toddler needs the tap elastic as she cannot yet tie shoes. Does this have the option to remove the ribbon tie?
Yes, this shoe does have the elastic under the ribbon. - DDS Customer Service (12/13/2012)
Yes it does. There is an elastic band connecting the lace holes, under the ribbon. The ribbon is decorative and not needed to wear the shoes. - Ashleysmom (03/13/2014)
Yes - the elastic is what help keep the tap shoe on my 3yr olds little foot. - Mrshuggies33 (04/23/2014)
I don't think you can remove the ribbon, but there is elastic underneath it. I just tied my daughter's in a bow, and she slips them on and off. - Militarymommy (06/15/2014)
yes you can remove the ribbon. there is an elastic band underneath - Abc123456 (08/29/2014)
Yes and yes. It does have elastic, and you can remove the ribbon. - Mtdewmommy3 (09/15/2014)
Yes! These shoes have elastic & the ribbon. - B8hoven (09/20/2014)
