Latin dance shoes are professional shoes for Latin dance. The sole is made of fur, which has very good contact ability and friction in the formal competition field with wooden or rubber floor. Suitable for jumping legs, showing foot lines and flexible sports. What's the difference between Latin dance and men's and women's shoes? Come and have a look with me!

1. Size of shoes

A slightly tighter size is better, which can fit the foot relatively, but it is also expected that the foot will swell a little after exercise; The size depends on the shape of the foot, mainly the sole, instep and heel. The sole should not be too tight, but should be comfortable. Sometimes you should also pay attention to whether the instep is too tight. Heel needs the heel of the shoe to follow the foot, and the upper and heel can move together as a whole, so it is not easy to sprain the foot.

2. Shoe hardness

Beginners should choose a little harder foot protection because they can't master the use of strength. After that, you can choose some soft-soled dancing shoes that are slightly Microsoft's, so that your feet are more beautiful and your movements are more stretched. Wearing shoes with good shoes in the competition can make the dance better and more perfect.

3. Height and thickness of heel

Generally speaking, the heel height should be slightly higher and the thickness should be thinner, so that it will be more beautiful in appearance and action, but it should also be based on the personal familiarity with dance, the mastery of skills, and personal conditions, whether you are used to high heels and whether it matches the height of your partner.

4. Color of shoes

Generally speaking, just choose your favorite color. Generally speaking, it is best to match your own clothes, which looks fashionable and elegant. In the formal Latin dance competition, the body should be painted with black oil (brown oil) and put on dark brown fishnet stockings to make the skin look healthy and dark. With brown satin shoes with similar colors, the overall effect will be more harmonious, the leg lines will be longer, and the Latin dancers will be more energetic and wild. Generally speaking, black clothes are suitable for matching with black dancing shoes and black fishnet stockings.

5. Fabric and materials of shoes

You can wear some leather clothes every day, which is cheaper, and you can also wear some sequined leather fabrics, which are eye-catching in appearance and will have a good effect under the light of the dance floor.

You can also choose some soft leather fabrics, which will be more comfortable with your feet, while satin dance shoes are quite suitable for practice and competition, with the characteristics of fitting your feet and comfort, and are the best fabrics for stretching lines.

6. Maintenance of ballroom dancing shoes

Because the soles of ballroom dancing shoes are turned upside down, the main function is to ensure the smooth progress of the dance, and there is a demand for the softness of the shoes, the need for anti-slip, and the reason for protecting the dance floor. So it's best not to stick water. When fur is wet for a long time, it is easy to make excuses from the soles, and when it is wet, it is easy to stick to all kinds of garbage on the ground. After shoes are worn for a certain period of time, no matter how they are protected, the leather soles will still make the mixture of wax glue and various small particles in the venue paste into hard soles, which will affect the softness and anti-skid performance of shoes. At this time, a special steel brush or anti-skid oil can be used to make the sole relatively soft and enhance the anti-skid performance.

7. Choice of soles

If you often dance in hard and rough places such as asphalt, concrete, park flats and open-pit stones. You will soon wear out your dancing shoes. You can make your dancing shoes with special rubber soles to ensure their service life, but at the expense of their softness and comfort.

Latin dance shoes have narrow and high heels, which are convenient for rotation and jumping; On the other hand, according to the tradition of western ballroom dancing, modern dance shoes have black smooth leather, while Latin dance shoes have matte black soft leather.
