OTHER QUESTIONS
- Where do you make your shoes? We manufacture with a very small factory in China which we have partnered with since the very beginning. You can reach more about our manufacturing practices at our About Us page.
- Are these dance shoes? No, please note we do not make dance shoes. We understand that many women use our shoes for swing dancing, however we do not design our shoes specifically for dance and therefore do not make recommendations to use them for that purpose.
