Modern Shoes at Competition
At a recent competition, I couldn't help but notice how many dancers wear Capezio FootUndeez. I couldn't help it because they glow from stage!
My favorite feature of a modern/contemporary shoe is that they disappear on stage.
Half-soles like Twylas and Pirouettes are really good at this. But the best shoes to blend in are Dance Paws. Not distracting at all.
Really the problem is matching skin color. FootUndeez are often too light.
So make sure that you match your skin tone when looking for modern dance shoes! You want the judges watching you, not your shoes.

Get Your Hard Hats!
HTD is under a bit of construction. All of the dance shoe information is available and in tact! (Few!)
Other pages (pages that were tangents, rambling, ugly or otherwise didn't make sense) are gone.
So it might be a bit bumpy till I get everything cleaned up, but it will all be for a better, more concise site. Yea!
Thanks for your understanding,

New Capezio Pointe Shoes?
Capezio recently announced that they are soon to release pointe shoes with a "new and improved fit."
Whether that means a Tendu III or Plie III or another whole new shoe all together (like the Tiffany), I don't know for sure. But my guess is they are revamping (no pun intended).
There are always some really sad dancers when companies remake old favorites. I've received questions about where to find a beloved style that is no longer being made.
