Why this Zumba lover is returning these shoes. It's not because of fit!!
By RedheadAmazonWarrior
This review is purely subjective. I had high hopes when I purchased these Block Women's Boost Dance Sneakers. I own numerous pairs of sneakers/shoes for different activities including walking, biking, and bootcamp. I work out every day and take at least four Zumba/Zumba-Tone classes a week. I wanted something to wear that would support my foot, weren't clunky, and would allow me to move a bit more freely. I wear a size 7.5 so I sized up a full size to an 8.5 as recommended. The fit was fine, they weren't clunky or heavy. So, I decided to try them at home on various surfaces while working out to my Zumba DVDs. My teachers use plyometric moves with explosive jumps and kicks as well as fast footwork and pivots so I added them to the routine just to see if I could land without hurting myself.I loved the fact that there is a "sweet spot" on the bottom that allows the wearer to pivot and slide with ease.But..alas..I was upset to discover that no matter how I laced them, (tight all over, tight over the instep only, graduated tightness on stress points and more), my arches and metatarsals were killing me after only a few minutes of the workout. Thank goodness I was at home and not at the gym or studio.Objectively, every Zumba class and routine may be different, every surface is different, and everyone's foot and body type is different. I guess the split sole and lack of at least a panel around the sides where the arch and metatarsal are that would offer more support didn't work for my feet's requirements.So please keep in mind that these shoes may work for you, but I recommend trying them at home, if you can, before you decide to keep them and wear them to a class. I'm returning them and will be on a quest for the perfect Zumba shoe.

Great dance sneakers
By Margie
Love these dance sneakers. I do line dancing and rock n roll in them and they are excellent. They slide beautifully but not so much that you go zooming off the floor! They also look good. Split sole is not a problem for me. I tried them on at the shop first for correct size. Left foot perfect, Right foot is a little small - toe is touchng end of the shoe, as my right foot is slightly bigger but as they are soft I'm thinking they'll stretch slightly. I normally take a size 7AU/7-1/2US street size or 8-1/2 in my Adidas or Reebok trainers. You need to go up 1-1/2 - 2 sizes from street size. I got the 9. I have quite narrow feet and they're not too wide. The bloch website is accurate with the sizing charts.

By getty
I bought this shoe for Zumba. It is very comfortable to dance in, but not good for walking. I don't even wear them into the gym. The only drawback I see is that SOMETIMES it slips a tiny bit. I wanted these because they do have the ability to pivot without knee torque. I feel these shoes have saved my knees and ankles. Zumba requires some twisting and other dance moves that are not served well by athletic shoes. They do run smaller than size marked. I normally wear a 9.5 athletic shoe but need a 10 in this style. It is a joy to dance in a comfortable shoe that fits!
