Capezio Reviews
I am taking tap lessons for the first time ever for the exercise. I didn't want to spend a lot of the shoes since I wasn't sure how long I would need them...I'm having a lot of fun and the shoes are super cute! They do seem a little small though. I probably would suggest ordering a half size bigger.
I ordered a whole size up based on the reviews that I read. They still seemed a bit small to me. They were also too tight around the ball of my foot. I have a small bunion, that might be why, or it might also be because the shoes are tapered in the toe. I tend to like shoes with a round toe, not a pointed toe. I'm returning them.
When I ordered these Character shoes, I was in need to get them quickly and wasn't sure how it would fit. I ordered a half size larger than what my daughter usually wears. About 10 minutes later I decided to also order that size in a wide. So I called to add to my previous order. After being told that I needed to place a new order, I explained that I chose next day shipping and decided that I'd just pay for the shipping. I was told that I could be made a VIP and I could have free next day shipping. This type of customer service is very rare these days. They made it so easy and inexpensive for me to get what I needed when I needed. The shoes were perfect. Thanks Zappos! Now I shop here first.
I adore these shoes. I bought a pair of Capezio a good 30 years ago that I am finally replacing with these. Be warned, however, order a full size larger than your regular street shoe. They really do size small.

These shoes are very stylish and extremely comfortable to wear. I am very pleased with my shoes. Considering that I have a hard time finding professional looking and comfortable shoes.
Great shoe! I ordered it for swing dancing. I have wide, flat feet and a bunion. If I size up enough to avoid tightness in the front of the shoe, the heel slips off. I decided to try the 7.5 wide and it was perfect! Love having the option of the wide width. The ankle strap keeps it from slipping. These are more comfortable for dancing than any other heels I own and the smooth sole is very helpful. That said, I still have problems with the heel after an hour or so. I rotate between these and a sneaker. Very happy with the sizing, color and price.
I started out loving this shoe, but after a couple of wears the padding in the ball of the foot was completely gone...feels like walking on very thin cardboard. Other than that, love the shoe!
Very nice pair of shoes my daughter loves them. Ver fast shipping! Originally ordered wrong size easy return service!
I had no problem with the fit of these shoes, but I don't wear socks with them. If I wore socks, I could see where they might be a little snug. I got these to Zumba on carpeting at home and they really do work out much better than regular sneakers as they glide across the carpet. The shoe is very comfortable and flexible. I am pleased with my purchase.
Tried them on and immediately knew they were too small. I'm returning them for a larger and wider size.

I was very pleased with the speedy delivery, the shoe is exactly as advertised and I was delighted with the whole transaction, especially the price!
These jazz shoes are definitely sized far too small. I took other recommendations and went 3 sizes bigger than my son's regular size. They fit perfect.
Very comfortable! And I was so reluctant to get even a little heel because I always wear flats. Now I am so glad because I can move across the dance floor more easily in these shoes and I don't even feel like I'm in heels. Not only are they comfortable, but I got compliments from other dancers, who wanted to know where I got them. Big caveat...You must go one width wider than your regular shoe width. Bottom line...If Zappos has your (adjusted) size, grab them.
I purchased this shoe for beginning ballroom dance classes. It was well priced and fit well.
Love capezios as a rule, and would have taken this and made it work, but found another that fit more comfortably, but twice the price.
I'm a very casual person and am usually in my Birkenstocks. I needed a pair of shoes for ballroom dancing that wouldn't kill my feet. I took a chance on these and, so far, they are very comfortable and allow the foot to slide as is needed. Compared to some dancing shoes, they're a bit frumpy, but, for me, they work fine. My back (and feet) would not survive high heels. These definitely serve my needs.
These shoes run about a full size smaller than your normal size (I wear an 8 so ordered a 9). Very comfortable but are ugly! The look fine in the picture but because they are all canvas make your feet look huge. That was disappointing.

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
