Capezio dancewear Australia is trusted by students, teachers and performers at every level. From first ballet classes to stage, this range covers the shoes and gear that serious dancers rely on.

Why Dancers Choose Capezio

Capezio has over a century of dance industry experience behind every design. Construction, fit and materials are refined to support real movement, not just look the part.

Split-sole and full-sole ballet shoes for different technique levels
Canvas and leather options to suit personal preference and syllabus requirements
Jazz shoes built for grip, flex and long rehearsal hours
Lyrical and pirouette shoes for contemporary and acro styles

Choosing the Right Capezio Ballet Shoe

Ballet shoe fit is critical. A shoe that is too roomy loses the clean line teachers look for. Too tight and it limits the stretch through the foot.

Children sizing: measure the foot length and check the Capezio size chart, as dance shoe sizing runs differently to school shoes
Adult sizing: most adult women size down one full size from their street shoe
Canvas moulds to the foot faster than leather but leather offers longer wear
Split-sole designs suit intermediate and advanced students who need full articulation
Full-sole styles like the Lily are recommended for beginner children learning foot placement

Jazz and Lyrical Shoes

The E-Series slip-on jazz shoe suits syllabus classes and freestyle work. The tan colour is the most commonly requested for jazz examinations in Australia. The Hanami Pirouette shoe works well for lyrical and contemporary dancers who need a shoe that moves with them without adding bulk.

Caring for Capezio Dance Shoes

Air shoes out after every class, never leave them in a closed bag
Use a soft brush on canvas to remove rosin and floor residue
Leather shoes benefit from occasional conditioning to prevent cracking
Write your dancer's name inside with a fabric marker before the first class
