About this Item
Start with a size up from your street shoe size for a comfortable fit. This ballet shoe, crafted from canvas, features a split-sole design with a patented diamond gusset, creating a seamless, sculpted arch. It boasts contoured, durable chrome-tanned suede sole patches and a polyester and cotton lining for moisture absorption. Hammered pleats ensure smooth contact with the floor, while precision-trimmed forefoot padding maintains a flat shoe profile. Additionally, it comes with a bar-tacked elastic drawstring and pre-attached criss-cross elastics.

Capezio's Legacy
Salvatore Capezio, born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy, defied his family's expectations to become a cobbler instead of a construction engineer like his father. At the age of 17, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street in New York City. Situated diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House, his shop quickly became a rendezvous point for dancers seeking custom-made shoes.

Capezio's reputation spread globally, attracting dancers from all corners of the world. The camaraderie he shared with dancers and his innovative shoe designs shaped the trajectory of his company. The Capezio brand emerged as a symbol of excellence, celebrating dance achievements and participation.

Today, Capezio remains at the forefront of quality and technological advancement in dancewear. Innovations such as the split-sole, stretch-insert, Dansneaker, and Tapsneaker continue to revolutionize the industry. Capezio attributes its success to the unwavering commitment of its customers to set new standards of creativity and performance while upholding a legacy of dependability and distinction.

Capezio reaffirms its dedication to supporting the advancement of dance, theater, and recreation in communities worldwide.
