2 Stars Does not hold up under pressure
I purchased these shoes because I’ve always trusted capezio but the shoes just do not hold up well at all. I use them twice a week and have for the last 5 weeks and they already look awful like i’ve had them for years. The gathering on the bottom is beginning to come undone already too. I would suggest looking for a better model of shoe.
2 Stars not what I expected
I am not a ballet dancer, but I do ballet dance workouts for exercise. I wanted a ballet slipper to get more into the mood of the dance so I saw these ballet slippers. I thought they would be exactly as pictured online. How wrong I was. The elastic bands are not attached, they have to be sewn in and there is a string to pull to help close the slipper and make it snug but the string is very long and has to be cut. Maybe this is how ballet slippers are typically sold for perfect fit but that was not disclosed in the description. Worse thing of all, the shipping cost as much as the slippers did. I would never buy from this provider, I’m pretty sure it did not cost $14 to send, it came via USPS. I did not return it because that would cost me even more money.
3 Stars Adult Cobra Ballet Slipper
I bought these slippers as a Christmas present for my sister. I was really disappointed in the condition that the slippers arrived in. The box was so crushed either from insufficient packaging protection during shipping or they were plucked from inventory in that condition. In either case, I couldn’t wrap the box and had to throw the slippers in a gift bag. Since Capezio is a good brand for ballet slippers, it would have been nice to have given her the gift in the box.
4 Stars Pretty Much Fits
I dance in a University company and my shoes were looking a little worn out; so, I decided to order these for class purposes only. I wear a 7 in street shoe size and ordered a 7. They did fit in that way. I have a slender foot I suppose, because even after tightening my elastics they were still too wide (slightly). It is still a nice shoe for class and the other elastics i just tie in a knot and wrap around my foot.
