As dancers, we know that we need shoes that fit our feet perfectly while giving us the freedom to move. Many dance shoes seem to have a narrow fit, and while that works well for dancers with narrow or standard width feet, it doesn’t work so well if your feet are a little wider than normal. And that’s why we offer a range of women’s wide width dance shoes here at Burju because we believe that every dancer’s shoes should be as well-fitting and as comfortable as possible. + Read more

How to Choose Your New Wide Width Dance Shoes
It doesn’t matter whether you’re buying standard fit dance shoes or shoes to fit wider feet, there are still a couple of rules to follow when choosing and trying on your footwear.
- The shoes need to be snug but not too tight. You may find that you need either a half or full size bigger to accommodate your feet.
- Choose the heel height that you feel comfortable wearing. It may be that you’re a new dancer and would prefer a lower heel until you get the technical aspects under your belt.
- Your choice of sole will depend on whether you only intend to wear the shoes indoors or whether you also want to wear them outdoors.
- Whether you choose open toes or closed toes will depend on the type of dance. Open toes are often preferred by Latin dancers as they help to accentuate the movement of your feet and toes, while closed-toe shoes are usually preferred by ballroom dancers.
