I want some really sharp shoes, I like the waltz so far. I want to buy some black or silver maybe. something flashy but comfy too. not wanting to spend $100 yet and I don't want to get ripped either, any suggestions?

I like to purchase my shoes from Showtimes Dance Shoes. There are many good shoes available, and we all have our preferences. I like the Dansport brand.

If you want to wear the right shoes, you have to get a pair of pumps especially designed for waltz. They do come in different colours (mine are silver) but they are not flashy. Latin shoes come in all colours and designs and you can get some terrific shoes for a reasonable amount of money. Latin shoes tend to be more showy.

Hi!

Check out Very Fine Dance Shoes. They are not of the absolute finest quality, but if you are looking to keep it under $100 and get a variety of styles, I think they will be your best bet. I think Elegance makes some interesting shoes as well. Good luck!

newtodance. Don't rush in to buying. Firstly. Latin shoes can be used for the Standard Style of dancing. But, you will never see a trained dancer dancing in the Standard Style that are wearing Latin Shoes. In the Foxtrot for instance we are supposed to run the toe then the ball of the foot on the floor when going backwards. Who is going to do that with the bare big toe nail scraping the floor. If your into both styles of dancing seriously, you need the two different types of shoes.

Try Ebay. I'm probably going to get blasted for this, but my favorite shoes were custom made to my feet measurements and cost half the price.
