How to Choose Dance Shoes: The Complete Guide
5 min read
Stiyko is a multi-brand store of children’s and adult dance shoes for Latin and European programs. We work with brands that ensure stability on the dance floor, comfort during training, and reliable arch support.
When you trust your shoes 100%, inner confidence emerges, making every movement more precise and bold.
Ensure the perfect fit by following these simple steps.
You will need a sheet of paper, a pencil, and a ruler. Wear thin socks or measure your foot barefoot.
Place your foot on the sheet of paper, shifting your body weight onto it. Stand straight — this is important for accuracy.
Hold the pencil vertically and trace around your foot without tilting it.
Use a ruler to measure the length of your foot from the heel to the longest toe and the width of your foot at its widest point.
Measure both feet and use the larger measurement when ordering, as one foot may be wider or longer than the other.

Measure both feet following the foot-size guide on this page and order by the larger measurement. Latin and Standard shoes fit differently, so check each model’s description for heel height and fit notes.
Yes. We ship across Ukraine and internationally. Place your order through the order form and we’ll confirm delivery options and cost for your country.
Heel height varies by model — most women’s Latin shoes come in 6.5, 7.5 and 8.5 cm, while Standard and practice shoes use lower, more stable heels. Each product description lists its available heights.
Yes. The catalog has a dedicated children’s category with sizes and styles suited to young dancers — use the “Children” filter in the catalog.

Rated 5.0 by dancers, coaches and parents.
Ordered Latin shoes for competition — the fit is perfect and the sole gives exactly the right flex for Cha-Cha and Rumba. Already recommended Stiyko to everyone in my group.
I ordered Standard shoes from Germany and was impressed by how smooth the whole process was. The fit guide was accurate, the shoes arrived well-packaged within two weeks. Will order again.
I order for my students regularly. Great brand selection, fast replies, and the order form makes it easy to specify exactly what you need. My go-to store.
