Guide to choosing classical dance shoes

Choosing the right shoe is fundamental for a dancer's safety and technical progression. Pointe shoes are indicated for dancers with at least 2-3 years of classical study and the teacher's approval.

Half-pointe shoes in canvas or leather, on the other hand, are suitable for all levels, from beginner to professional. For ballroom dancing, Cuccarini shoes in genuine leather or Oxford shoes for men offer the ideal leather sole for gliding on the parquet floor without losing control.

How to choose dance tights

Tights are an integral part of the dance uniform. For classical dance, full-foot tights in microfiber or lycra are preferred, often in pink or black depending on the school's requirements. For modern dance and ice skating, stirrup tights or footless tights are used for greater freedom of movement. Consult our selection of dance tights to find the right size and model.
