Size & Fit Advice

All shoes are displayed in UK sizes. The size printed on the shoe or box may differ due to the manufacturer's international sizing system.

Fit Advice
Our sizing advice is a guide based on brand recommendations and customer feedback. Dance shoe fit is highly individual, so we cannot guarantee the recommended size will be the perfect fit for everyone.

Fits true to size for most dancers. Choose a secure dance fit without excessive growing room. The adaptable strap can run under the foot, straight across the ankle or around the ankle for personalised security.

Description

Designed specifically for younger Ballroom and Latin dancers, the IDS Girls Flavia combines the polished look of a competition shoe with the stability, flexibility and comfort developing dancers need. Its classic white finish, low Cuban heel and secure strappy construction make it an excellent choice for classes, medal work and Juvenile competition.


IDS Girls Flavia Personality

Classic • Competition-Ready • Secure • Youthful

Flavia has exactly the right balance for a young competition dancer. It looks polished and grown-up without trying to imitate a high adult Latin sandal, while the clean white finish keeps the overall appearance beautifully traditional.

The multiple front straps also give it a much more refined competition silhouette than a basic beginner shoe, a lovely step forward when a young dancer is becoming more serious about Ballroom and Latin.


IDS Girls Flavia Ballroom & Latin Competition Shoes  – Design & Performance

The five-strap forefoot is one of Flavia's most useful features, creating a secure framework around the front of the foot while still allowing the shoe to remain flexible through dance movement.

Its clever three-way adaptable strap gives dancers different ways to secure the shoe. It can pass underneath the foot, sit straight across the ankle or wrap around the ankle, allowing the fit and appearance to be adjusted to the individual dancer.

Underfoot, lightweight gel padding adds cushioning without making the shoe feel bulky, while the suede dance sole provides the controlled relationship with the floor expected from a dedicated Ballroom and Latin shoe.

A low 1.25" Cuban heel completes the design, keeping the dancer comfortably grounded while introducing the posture and balance of a heeled Ballroom shoe in an age-appropriate format.

Dance World Notes

A particularly strong first competition shoe.
Flavia gives younger dancers the polished appearance of a dedicated Ballroom and Latin shoe while keeping the heel low, stable and manageable. It's a very natural progression from class footwear into competition footwear.

There's a grown-up Flavia waiting.
We love that IDS also produces an adult Flavia within its Ladies Latin collection. Girls Flavia gives young dancers a recognisable shoe identity they can naturally progress from as their dancing develops.


Dance World Fit Advice

Overall Fit
Girls Flavia fits true to size for most dancers. Start with the dancer's measured dance-shoe size rather than automatically adding growing room.

Competition Fit
A Ballroom competition shoe should hold the foot securely. Avoid excessive growing room, particularly around the heel and forefoot, as movement inside the shoe can reduce stability and control.

Forefoot
The five front straps should sit securely around the foot without excessive pressure or allowing the foot to slide forward.

Adjustable Security
Experiment with the three-way strap configuration to find the most secure and comfortable position for the individual dancer.

Dance World sizing recommendations are intended as a starting point. Children's dance shoe fit varies with foot width, shape and stage of growth, and competition shoes should remain secure during movement.
