Karen & co. Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Apologies for the strange question I've been searching for adult size 11 dance shoes for Jazz/modern dance for my YS and most of the funkier ones stop at size 10 He is only 12 and loves his dance lessons and needs new shoes before they start again in September, his dance teacher is brilliant, but has only taught little boys before as they usually drop lessons by the age of about 7!! I wondered if any of you 'all knowing chicken folk' had any experience of where to get a pair that fit Many thanks Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 There is **this place** in Sheffield. Reputed to be connected in some way with Darren and Lilia. Dunno if it is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I have found these in size 11 http://www.dancedirect.com/uk/Products/Footwear/SO528/bloch-shoes-footwear-dancesneakers-lightweight-canvas-splitsole-so528/ Have you been to a dance shop? I am sure that a proper shop would know where to go get the right size and also ensure a proper fit. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Hi Karen - do Yvonnes school of dancing in Flag Lane, Crewe not sell them? They used to have adult dancers and a shop underground years ago. I also think there is a dance shop in Newcastle - up the bank near Woolworths, there is a road on the left, going to a car park - I think it's on the right, just as you've turned left.

Tessa the Duchess Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Karen, both of these shops are in London, but they will send dance shoes anywhere in the world. http://www.freedoflondon.com/ http://www.handmadeshoes.co.uk/ Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Karen, Ebay can be a good place to look as I got some brand new jazz trainers for one my daughters at a bargain price although some can be really manky that people are trying to sell. Daughters are both out at the mo but I'm sure we've used dance gear direct as well in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
