I use them for aerobic dance classes.
I wear a 9 1/2 Street shoe. I ordered an 11 and it fits my wide foot well.
UPDATE!! These shoes hurt my foot and leg!! Not the same quality as past Bloch dance sneakers I have purchased. In fact I pulled my tendons in my foot so badly I could not even walk for over a week. When I did start working out again I, wanted to make sure it was the shoes so I did a gentle dance workout and aggravated my foot that was healing, Since then I haven't touched these and am wearing my 3 year old Bloch dance sneakers, I have had no problems. I want to return or exchange these, but the seller says I am past the return date. It took over a month to figure out it was these sneakers... I would like a refund or exchange for a different shoe. I have no use for sneakers that ruin my feet to point I can not walk!!
