I thought I would ask here 1st before going out and spending and arm and leg on shoes again.

Right now is in a size 1 1/2 Slip on Bloch they said next size would be a 4 (weird I know)
OR
I would also be interested in lace up shoes

IF anyone has anything PLS PLS let me know I am in Toronto, Ontario Canada and if the price and shipping are worth it I dont mind paying as I just bought a pair off this board from a great lady who was in the US for my daughter.

Thanks again
Robyn

I would go somewhere and try on shoes if possible. My DS has had problems as his feet grew with some years his foot being to wide to wear the slip on kind. Since most shoes are uni-sex they tend to be a little narrow for boys feet. He says that his cheer shoes feel like someone is bear hugging his feet!

The sizing sounds weird but that is right I measured the ones I have and that makes total sense they kinda jump sizes I pm'd you and I will be in TO on Wed at SYTYCD I am quite sure the ones I have which are a Brand New in box Bloch lace up will fit you son or maybe be a size up . I owned a dance store for a couple of years and have quite a bit of stuff left. Im my pm to you I maybe saidt they were capezio but they are bloch sorry I had capezio gore boots staring at me. Let me know if you are interested.

We used to use the Bloch slip-ons at our studio, but we are switching to the Leo's slip-ons. They have a pretty good price at Discount Dance:

Leo's® Unisex Slip on Tap Shoe
Retail Value: $65.00
Your Price: $46.95
You Save: $18.05 (28%)

These run very small - the website suggests for men to get 2 sizes larger, so you might want to try them on somewhere first...

My son LOVES his Leo's slip on. Sizing is pretty difficult to guess with, I take him for fittings. Plus our local dancewear shops matches catalog prices.
