Hi all. I'm in the market to buy jazz dance sneakers. Does anyone have any recommendations or insight as to the best brand, style, etc.

I tried on a few capezio ones and found the groove one fairly decent. Does anyone have that brand/style? I've also heard that Bloch is good (but haven't tried any on yet).

In my experience, Bloch is the best brand, they mould to the shape of your foot where ive found that Capezio are often made of quite tough material... also Bloch has alot of support, i can go on pointe in my jazz trainers very easily.... and they last! I've had my current pair for 3 years and they're still in very good shape... bear in mind i wear them ALOT!.. so yeah i'd go for Bloch over Capezio.

Welcome!

I really enjoy my Capezio shoes. I cannot compare them with Bloch, as I've never had those.

I use Bloch personally however I have never tried Capezio shoes... I think its just personal preference... Try them on in a store and go with what feels the most comfortable for you...

Good Luck :D

Wearing jazz sneakers that look like running shoes don't really help you to point your toes [:

They're better to wear in rehersals. I wear Bloch and Sansha shoes [:
