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.

The So Danca SD60 combines the comfort of soft leather with the flexibility of a split sole and a modern drawstring-free construction. For the most accurate fit, always begin with your measured foot length rather than your everyday shoe size.

• Advanced & Professional Dancers
Many experienced dancers prefer a close performance fit, choosing approximately their measured foot size or around ½ UK size above, depending on personal preference.

• Growing Students & Adult Beginners
Approximately 1 UK size above measured foot length usually provides a comfortable everyday ballet fit while allowing the leather to soften naturally around the foot.

• First Ballet Shoes & Young Dancers
Approximately 1½–2 UK sizes above measured foot length generally provides comfortable growing room while maintaining a secure ballet fit.

The premium leather upper gradually moulds to the shape of the foot, creating an increasingly personalised fit with regular wear. The drawstring-free elastic casing provides a clean finish without the need for adjustments, while the pre-sewn crossed elastics make the shoe ready to wear straight from the box.

Care information

Allow leather ballet shoes to air naturally after every class.
Wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow them to dry naturally away from direct heat.
The leather upper will gradually soften and mould to your feet with regular wear.

As the shoes begin taking shape, many dancers choose to mark the inside with L and R so each shoe continues moulding comfortably to the same foot.

Description

The So Danca SD60 Leather Ballet Shoes combine the timeless comfort of premium leather with a modern, streamlined design. Created for dancers who want natural flexibility without unnecessary fuss, the SD60 replaces the traditional drawstring with an elastic casing, creating a smooth, professional finish while maintaining a secure, comfortable fit.

Its split suede sole allows the foot to articulate naturally through every plié, tendu and relevé, while the soft leather upper gradually moulds to the shape of the foot for a personalised fit. With pre-sewn crossed elastics and a clean silhouette straight out of the box, the SD60 is equally suited to regular classes, examinations and performance preparation.

So Danca SD60 Fit Advice

Advanced & Professional Dancers

Many experienced dancers prefer a close performance fit, choosing approximately their measured foot size or around ½ UK size above, depending on personal preference.

Growing Students & Adult Beginners

For most dancers, approximately 1 UK size above measured foot length provides a comfortable everyday ballet fit while allowing the leather to mould naturally to the foot.

First Ballet Shoes & Young Dancers

For first ballet shoes and younger dancers, approximately 1½–2 UK sizes above measured foot length usually provides comfortable growing room while maintaining a secure ballet fit. As the leather softens with wear, it gradually adapts to the shape of each foot for an increasingly personalised fit.

Dance World Fit Advice is intended as a helpful starting point. For the most accurate fit, always measure the dancer's foot rather than using their everyday shoe size. Foot shape, width and personal preference all influence the ideal fit.
