Dance effortlessly in our Canvas Dansneaker®. Salvatore Capezio was born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy. Uninterested in following in his father's footsteps as a construction engineer, he became an artist of his own right, a cobbler. In 1887, at the age of 17, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street, diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. Soon, the shop became a meeting place for dancers who would stop by to discuss their needs and to get a pair of his shoes. As Capezio's popularity grew, dancers from around the world made it a point to visit him and purchase his shoes. The innovation of the products that Salvatore Capezio created and the camaraderie he shared with the dancers molded the direction that his company would follow. In this image, the Capezio brand was established to promote and recognize ongoing achievements and participation in dance. Capezio products remain in the forefront in quality and in technological advances with innovations like the split-sole, the stretch-insert, the Dansneaker and the Tapsneaker. Capezio believes that their success is dependent upon the individual commitment of each customer to continually set new standards of creativity and performance, while preserving a reputation for dependability and distinction. Capezio pledges their support and dedication to the advancement of dance, theater and recreation in communities worldwide.

My go-to for dance and exercise
These shoes are my go-to for dance rehearsal, teaching dance, and for fitness classes like Zumba. Once you wear them in just a little bit, they are comfortable, supportive with a little padding and shock absorption, yet they have a flexible arch and a good sole to allow turns and slip that an athletic shoe will not.

Nice dance sneaker - true to size
This is just what I was looking for!. I wanted a shoe for jazz dance class that was a little more substantial and supportive than the Capezio slipper shoe. It is not slippery and I can make turns without my shoes getting stuck to the floor. The shoe fits true to size. I ordered two sizes, the size I normally wear and a larger size. My normal size is 8 1/2, and that size fits well. My foot is medium to narrow-medium width. I wear a thin sock with the shoe, and I still have room in the shoe.

True to Size…
Love these shoes! I use for Urban/Soul Line dancing. I wear a 10 ordered 1/2 size up and returned, not enough toe room. I expected 1/2 size larger to work, felt like a 10. I think they run true to size.I ordered Size 11 which felt like a 1/2 size larger….No break end, felt good!😁

Comfortable sole. Tongue too long!
I was looking for a dance shoe with cushion on the sole and these provide that. YAY! However…the tongue is so long that it constantly rubs the front of my leg. Whoever the designer is…PLEASE SHORTEN THE TONGUE AT LEAST HALF AN INCH. Then I could definitely give this shoe a 5 star rating.

Great dance shoe for the price!
My wife loves these dance shoes! The size, quality, and durability can't be beat. She has used this brand for many years, only replacing the shoes when needed, as they hold up for years.

Nice shoe
Very comfortable shoes. Great on wooden dance floors. Only complaint is the liner inside has come loose and rolls up under my arch. It can be painful to dance when stepping on the rolled section.

Not Quite Right
Sadly, Capezio has changed the fit and somewhat the design of this shoe. I used the prior one for years, and am very disappointed in this new one. I’ve switched to Fuego.

Perfect for a ballet teacher
My daughter wears a street shoe 9 and bought these shoes in a size 8.5. They fit perfectly. My daughter paid full price for a new pair of shoes and got a pair of used shoes, so be aware of that. If they had been new, they would have been beautiful, supportive, good quality, lightweight and perfect for a ballet teacher.
