Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Só Dança BA26 fit compared to street shoe size?
The BA26 typically runs close to street shoe size, but Só Dança recommends consulting the brand's shoe size chart, as fit can vary depending on foot width. The shoe is available in Narrow, Medium, Wide, and X-Wide widths to accommodate different foot shapes.
What makes the BA26 specifically designed for men?
The BA26 features a higher, wider vamp than standard ballet flats, which accommodates the proportions of a men's foot for a more comfortable and secure fit during class and performance.
Is the BA26 a split-sole or full-sole ballet shoe?
The Só Dança BA26 is a split-sole ballet shoe. The split-sole construction allows for greater foot articulation, helping male dancers achieve a cleaner arch and pointed foot position.
How do I care for the canvas upper on the BA26?
Canvas ballet shoes like the BA26 can typically be hand washed in cold water with mild detergent and air dried flat. Machine washing is generally not recommended, as it can affect the shape and integrity of the shoe.
Can the elastic drawstrings on the BA26 be adjusted?
Yes. The elastic drawstrings on the BA26 are pre-sewn on one end, which allows each dancer to customize the placement of the drawstring opening to suit their individual foot shape and preference.
Is the BA26 suitable for professional performances as well as daily class use?
