Care information
International shoe sizes can vary slightly between brands and models. Use your measured foot length as the best starting point, then compare it with the individual brand's size recommendation. Where a product page gives model-specific sizing advice, that guidance should always take priority over a general conversion chart.

International Kids' Shoe Size Conversion
Children's shoe sizing changes from child to youth sizing as feet grow. Measure the child's foot rather than converting from an existing school or trainer size wherever possible.

Never choose a dance shoe from conversion alone. Ballet, jazz, ballroom and character shoes can fit very differently depending on the last, upper material, width and intended level of compression. Use this table to understand international equivalents, then follow the fit advice for the individual shoe.
How to Measure Your Feet for Dance Shoes
Measure both feet while standing, preferably later in the day. Use the longer foot when comparing your measurement with a shoe size chart.
Foot Length
Key MeasurementStand with your heel lightly against a wall and place your foot flat on a sheet of paper. Mark the end of your longest toe and measure the distance from the wall to the mark.
Measure in centimetres for the most accurate comparison with international shoe charts.
Measure Both Feet
Repeat the measurement on the other foot. It is very common for one foot to be slightly longer than the other, so always use the larger measurement when choosing your starting size.
Foot Width
Measure across or around the widest part of the forefoot. Width can be just as important as length in dance shoes, particularly in fitted ballet, jazz and ballroom styles.
Measure While Standing
Take measurements with your full weight on your feet. Standing allows the foot to spread naturally and gives a more realistic measurement than measuring while sitting.
Check the Dance Fit
A correctly fitted dance shoe should feel secure without restricting the toes or causing pressure. Different dance disciplines require different amounts of growing room, compression and heel security, so always follow the model-specific Dance World Fit Advice.
This chart is designed as an international reference rather than a replacement for individual brand sizing. Bloch, Capezio, So Danca, IDS, PortDance, Diamant and other dance footwear brands may use their own conversion systems or fit differently from standard street shoes. Always use the individual product's Dance World Fit Advice where available.

Description
Description
The PortDance PD810 Ballroom & Latin Shoes have that rare ability to look understated and dramatic at exactly the same time. Clean black through the front and sparkling at the heel, they're a contemporary alternative to the traditional strappy dance sandal.
PortDance PD810 Personality
Sleek • Contemporary • Unexpected • Black Glitter
From the front, PD810 is beautifully restrained: smooth black neoprene, minimal detailing and a clean peep-toe silhouette. Turn the shoe around and the mood changes completely. A textured black glitter heel panel catches the light behind the ankle, creating just enough contrast to make the shoe feel special without turning it into an all-over sparkle style.
PortDance PD810 Neoprene Ballroom & Latin Shoes – Design & Performance
The feature that really defines PD810 is its flexible neoprene upper. Rather than constructing the shoe from multiple narrow straps, PortDance uses a soft, close-fitting upper that wraps across the front and sides of the foot. It creates a smoother, more covered silhouette while allowing the material to adapt naturally as the foot moves.
The open toe keeps the front of the shoe appropriate for expressive Latin footwork, while the cut-away sides prevent the more substantial upper from feeling restrictive. Around the back, a glitter-covered heel panel adds structure and creates the shoe's signature contrast.
A rear zipper keeps entry beautifully simple - particularly useful on a close-fitting neoprene shoe, while the cushioned interior is designed to make PD810 comfortable enough for longer dance sessions.
Underfoot, a traditional suede dance sole provides the controlled movement required for turns and pivots. The elegant 70mm heel adds height and lengthens the leg line without pushing the shoe into an extreme heel profile.
PortDance PD810 Technical Profile
The Dance World Technical Profile provides a quick overview of each Ballroom and Latin shoe's construction, fit and intended use, making it easier to compare different styles at a glance.

Dance World Notes
The sparkle is saved for the best place.
We love that PortDance didn't cover the entire shoe in glitter. From the front, PD810 is almost minimalist; from behind, the glitter heel panel suddenly catches the light. It makes the shoe much more interesting in motion.
PD805 PRO or PD810?
They're surprisingly different. Choose PD805 PRO for dramatic lacing, cut-outs and statement styling. Choose PD810 when you want the same elevated 70mm territory with a softer, cleaner and more streamlined feel.
Dance World Fit Advice
Overall Fit
PD810 is designed to feel close to the foot. The neoprene should sit smoothly across the upper rather than hanging loosely or creating excess material.
Neoprene Feel
Expect a snug, glove-like sensation when first worn. The flexible upper adapts naturally to the shape of the foot and softens slightly through wear.
Open-Toe Position
The toes should sit comfortably towards the front of the sole without being forced backwards or extending excessively beyond the edge.
PD810 Fit Note
The current fit guidance indicates that PD810 runs true to size for most dancers. If you fall between sizes or prefer additional room through the toes, consider the half size above.
Dance World sizing recommendations are intended as a starting point. Dance shoe fit is individual and can vary with foot width, toe shape, instep height and personal preference.
