Capezio Women's Agility Gym Shoe,Black,5 M US

I wasn't sure how slip proof these would be for tumbling, but they are great! I wouldn't use them on the balance beam, but they work very well for trampoline and tumbling (I mainly use the Tumbl Trak. I used to pay over $60 for shoes and they weren't real leather--these are a great deal!

Excellent quality shoes. We ordered a size 6 which is my daughters smallest street shoe size. It fit around the foot but was a little long so there is alot of space at the toe. I'm not sure if they have half sizes. I think a 5 would have been too tight so we didn't return them and she says they are comfortable and work fine during class.

A sueded sole with "gripper-type" insets at the ball of the foot and heel insure non-slip footing. A wide V-shaped gore at the vamp makes putting on the shoes a snap while also providing snug comfort for easy movement as does the buttery, smooth leather on the remainder of the shoe. The quality of materials (mostly leather) and craftpersonship is excellent. The price of just under $20 (and free shipping with a prime account) makes the shoes affordable, and a smart buy for the quality.I use these "slippers" for non-slip comfort while doing Tai Chi (an exercise which is all about sure-footedness/balance) and highly recommend them for any type of exercise that requires the same.

They run true to size in adults, I bought these to dance in. I’m an ex gymnast and coach and like to exercise in them. If you have room in the front or back they are too big. Mine are big I purchased based on the reviews, but I’m keeping them because they are a great slipper. If you’re buying these for Tao chi, tai bo, yoga, dance etc. or you’re just an older person who likes to practice form and do a light workout I would recommend buying the size you wear in street shoes, work into them and beat them hard. They’re not a higher quality shoe, they’re a basic shoe, but they still should function properly unless you’re buying them for fashion purposes.

I bought them for equestrian vaulting. They've been great so far!

I wore these shoes over a pair of tights for a flying trapeze class, and they were excellent. They felt so comfortable and secure on my feet. I usually wear an 8.5 but I chose to buy an 8 because I wanted them to fit snug and secure.One of the seams by the toe sticks out a little bit, it almost looks like there is a hole, but the stitching is just slightly off. It doesn't affect the fit, but it looks a little weird. Also, the leather is very thin (as you would expect) so it scuffs easily and wears down to show the grey part under the top layer of the leather.Overall, a great purchase, and even though the quality could be better, for this price it's perfect.

I have numerous photos but there is no option to add customer images on this product.I ordered these shoes in my size (Women's 9 - I wear a Euro 40 which is a 9 to 9.5) and they were a little baggy on my feet after the initial stretching for the first 10-15 minutes of wear, so I sent them back and sized down to an 8. I LOVED the fit- they stretched to fit my foot after again, about 10-15 minutes and fit perfectly- the elastic gusset allows for a custom fit. I had no issues with that elastic or the elastic on the heel although they could be cut a tiny bit higher. The soles are a great design- just grippy enough but still enough suede to allow for spins and a bit of sliding. The soles seem passably durable (I only wore any of my pairs for 3 hours total) especially since the bulk of the weight is on the rubbery parts, not the suede- so less matting of the suede. The suede did start to get a shiny where it overlapped the textured rubber sole after perhaps an hour of wear- where there were two layers of sole material rather than 1, making those parts thicker. I'm sure the suede on the sole could be lifted with some concrete scuffing or a suede brush. I'd give four stars for the soles because they are super comfortable, super flexible and fairly durable.But here's the problem- the uppers are absolute garbage. The material forms perfectly to the foot, making me believe that it is real leather- but then the surface of it begins to peel off where it touches the floor and also where my big toenail is (and my toenails are not sharp or long). I have photos of the toes of my pair of shoes after 3 hours total wear. The wear is significant.The inside of the shoe says that the uppers are leather but I do not believe it. I have a photo of the edge of the "leather" on the top of the shoe and it is white and slightly fuzzy. It's not the lining or a mid layer peeking out- I can't get a close enough photo but the black layer bonded to it is ultrathin (as thin as a piece of paper) and starts to peel off from the underlayer in rubbery shreds where it is worn. Even if it were poorly dyed/tanned leather (where the dye sits on the surface, rather than penetrating through the whole thickness), the undyed part should not be WHITE. I suspect false labeling here especially since the gray microsuede lining doesn't seem at all like leather either. In fact, the bottom sole feels the most like leather.As another person pointed out, the seams of the shoe around the sole are sewn with raw edges facing in (rather than being properly lined) which is cheap and slightly irritating, but I was willing to overlook it if the shoe functioned acceptably.I reported the defective shoes to Amazon and they overnighted me another pair, but the same thing has started to happen- the leather is peeling near the toenail and the very toe of the shoe even though I wore the shoes for 45 minutes around the house (not even in class! Mostly just sitting in a chair). It is shameful for Capezio to put out such a faulty product and I can't believe that most of the other reviews don't address the wear issues. I wonder if there was a recent change in manufacturing because both of my pairs had the same issues.

I bought these for my Surfset fitness class because I was banging up my toes going barefoot. They fit true to size but if you are between sizes go down not up a size since they stretch and are designed to fit snug. Very comfortable, I can't wait to use them in class. I have only worn them around the house. These shoes would be good for any fitness class where you normally go barefoot but are not a substitute for a sneaker or dance shoe.
