To choose your dance shoe size, measure your foot in centimetres: Capezio publishes its equivalents in cm, Bloch only for its KIX sneaker, and So Danca, Rumpf and Rummos do not publish any on the pages consulted. This dance shoe size guide gathers what each brand actually displays, with the source and the date it was checked (13 November 2026), and gives you a calculator.
Our recommended modelsCalculator: your foot length in cm
- Enter your measurement to see the sizes.
Simple rule: choose the size whose length is equal to or just above your measurement. To measure, stand your foot flat against a wall on a sheet of paper, mark the longest toe, and measure in the evening wearing the socks or tights you dance in. The details are in our size guide.

Their charts are images or on pages we could not read during this check: go directly to the brand’s website before ordering.
And at Dansezo?

Frequently asked questions
Should I take the same size with every brand?
No. Brands offset their sizes depending on the range: at Capezio, for example, a ballet shoe can be ordered from 1.5 sizes smaller to 2 larger than your street shoe size.
Where can I find a brand’s foot length in cm?
Only Capezio publishes it in this comparison, and Bloch for its KIX sneaker. For the others, measure your foot and compare it with the chart on the product page.
What if my foot is wide?
Bloch advises half a size more than the recommended size for a wide foot. See also our wide-foot dance shoes.
