Capezio Boy's Cadence Tap Shoe-Child Dance, Black, 1.5 Little Kid
Lifestyle ShoesShut the stage down in the Cadence Tap Shoe. Features a durable leather sole and iconic Capezio® Tele Tone® toe and heel taps for a deeper resonating sound. The tapered heel and light padding keep you moving to the rhythm without any difficulty. Salvatore Capezio was born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy. Uninterested in following in his father's footsteps as a construction engineer, he became an artist of his own right, a cobbler. In 1887, at the age of 17, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street, diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. Soon, the shop became a meeting place for dancers who would stop by to discuss their needs and to get a pair of his shoes. As Capezio's popularity grew, dancers from around the world made it a point to visit him and purchase his shoes. The innovation of the products that Salvatore Capezio created and the camaraderie he shared with the dancers molded the direction that his company would follow. In this image, the Capezio brand was established to promote and recognize ongoing achievements and participation in dance. Capezio products remain in the forefront in quality and in technological advances with innovations like the split-sole, the stretch-insert, the Dansneaker and the Tapsneaker. Capezio believes that their success is dependent upon the individual commitment of each customer to continually set new standards of creativity and performance, while preserving a reputation for dependability and distinction. Capezio pledges their support and dedication to the advancement of dance, theater and recreation in communities worldwide.

Level Up Your Look: The Essential Guide to Lifestyle Shoes
Shoes are more than just footwear; they're an extension of your personal style. The right pair of shoes can elevate your outfit and boost your confidence. But with so many different types of shoes on the market, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. Enter lifestyle shoes: the versatile and stylish option that can take you from day to night, errands to adventures.
What Are Lifestyle Shoes?
Lifestyle shoes are a broad category that encompasses shoes designed for everyday wear, comfort, and style. They bridge the gap between athletic shoes and dress shoes, offering a comfortable fit and a more casual aesthetic. Lifestyle shoes come in a wide variety of styles, materials, and colors, making them perfect for expressing your unique personality.
Popular Types of Lifestyle Shoes
The world of lifestyle shoes is vast, but here are a few of the most popular types:
- Sneakers: Sneakers are a classic choice for casual wear. They come in a variety of styles, from low-top canvas sneakers to chunky platform sneakers. Popular lifestyle sneaker brands include Nike, Adidas, New Balance, and Converse.
- Loafers: Loafers are a timeless and sophisticated option for men and women. They offer a polished look that can be dressed up or down. Popular loafer styles include penny loafers, driving loafers, and tassel loafers.
- Boots: Boots are a versatile option that can be worn year-round. They come in a variety of heights, materials, and styles, from ankle boots to knee-high boots. Popular lifestyle boot styles include Chelsea boots, chukka boots, and combat boots.
- Boat Shoes: Boat shoes are a classic summer staple. They're typically made of canvas or leather and have a rubber sole for added traction on boats (or, you know, the sidewalk).
Choosing the Right Lifestyle Shoes for You
When selecting lifestyle shoes, consider your personal style, lifestyle, and needs. Here are a few tips to help you choose the perfect pair:
- Think about your daily activities. Do you need shoes that are comfortable for walking long distances? Or do you prioritize style over comfort?
- Consider the climate. For warmer weather, you might opt for breathable sandals or canvas shoes. For colder weather, boots or sneakers with good traction might be a better choice.
- Don't forget about comfort! Lifestyle shoes should be comfortable enough to wear all day long.

So ditch the boring shoes and step up your style with a pair of lifestyle shoes that will take you wherever you need to go.
User Reviews
I ordered a half size larger and they fit perfectly. Very soft leather. Extra slip proof section on soles was nice. Taps sound good.
What an easy way to add some fun to your life -- just put on a pair of tap shoes and start clickety clacking across the floor. Capezio is a well-known name in the dance world, and these do not disappoint. For a very reasonable price, you get a leather oxford with a comfortable, cushiony lining. I was able to put these on and start dancing -- well, making noise -- immediately. There are plenty of tutorials and classes available on line, so it is very easy to get started. So much fun for a small price!
I ordered a 7.5, which is my true-to-size shoe size, and it fit wonderfully--not too tight or too loose. These shoes are so comfy. I'm a beginning/intermediate tapper, and right out of the box, I wanted to do a few little shuffles. I wear these through intermediate/advanced tap class which is about an hour each week, and for practice from time to time, and these shoes always stay laced, don't slip, and keep my feet sturdy so I can focus on the steps and not on "is my shoe going to twist my ankle???" I would definitely recommend these high-quality tappers for just about anyone who is looking for an oxford-style tap shoe.
I’m typically a size 8.5 heels, a 9 in sneakers and needed a 9.5 in these. Great tap shoes, no break-in needed, nice soft leather. For whatever reason the laces come undone on the right shoe but not the left, but I googled a special way to tie them and it doesn’t happen anymore.
I ordered every tap shoe Amazon sells under $150 and Capezio Cadence was the most comfortable.
I only just received these, but, I love them already. A great fit and so comfortable. These run true to size for both length and width. Can't wait to begin using them.
These shoes are so well made and comfortable! The inside has a nice soft felt, and upper is so soft. The sole and heel are very strong and well supportive. I am about a 6.5, sometimes a 7 in size, but the 7 was a bit short. I had to return them and get the 7.5. When in doubt, always go up a size. Other then that, they're fantastic!
I'm an intermediate tapper and initially ordered tap shoes that were twice the cost. The shoes were very heavy and though they fit well in the toe, my heels slipped out of the back while dancing. It was certainly not worth the price to have to "retrofit" tap shoes with moleskin, etc., so I returned them and purchased the Capezio Cadence. Such an improvement! Not only were they half the cost of the first pair, they fit like a dream and are much lighter in weight, though the tap sounds are loud and clear. I wear a size 8 1/2-9 and ordered these in a 9.
