Size & Fit Guide

Women's Shoes

  • Overall, dance shoes should fit snug. They should feel like a glove enveloping your feet.
  • Depending on your foot shape, you may find that for dancing, you may need to size down from your regular shoe size. This is often the case if you have a narrow foot or if you are in between sizes. If you don't plan to wear our shoes primarily for dancing, then start with your regular size.
  • With wear, the leather will stretch, molding to the shape of your foot. The shoes will stretch across the widest part of your foot as you break them in, but they will not stretch in the length.
  • For sandals, your toes should be close to the front of the shoe but not hanging over the edge. Generally speaking, your toes will be closer to the edge for dancing shoes than in your regular street shoes to avoid catching the floor during dance moves.
  • Trainers should feel comfortably snug but with more space for your toes than heeled shoes. Start with your regular shoe size and you may need to size up, depending on your foot shape.
  • Axis Tango shoes are based on Italian/European sizing.
  • Please note the length measurements are approximate guidelines; there may be variations between brands. If you are unsure about fit or need a custom size, get in touch with us, we'll be happy to help you.
