My previous pair of shoes has lasted me 4 years and I dance salsa on a regular basis including training for performances and workshops from international artists and my shoes have never let me down! These are really high quality shoes that I can trust to support my feet when spinning! They are excellent! I keep recommending this brand to all my fellow dancers! However, it would be nice if the website could provide more advice on how to choose our size best because I definitely feel I'm in between 5 and 5.5 and I never know which size to choose and as we cannot try the shoes beforehand it would be lovely to have measurement advice for example on the website. Other than that, very satisfied! I would buy more shoes if I had more money!
