Frequently Asked Questions
What heel height does the Só Dança Rinnah BL198 have, and is it suitable for beginners?
The Só Dança Rinnah BL198 features a 1.5-inch heel, which is one of the most recommended heel heights for beginner and intermediate ballroom and Latin dancers. It provides enough lift to support proper dance posture without placing excessive strain on the foot or ankle, making it a practical starting point for students new to heeled dance footwear.
How should I size the Só Dança BL198 Rinnah ballroom shoe?
Só Dança recommends sizing down by half a size from your standard street shoe size for most adult ballroom styles. Dance shoes are designed to fit snugly to support footwork and prevent slipping inside the shoe. If you are between sizes, sizing down is generally preferred. Refer to the Só Dança adult women's size chart for precise measurements.
Can the BL198 Rinnah be used for both practice and performance?
Yes. The sparkle canvas upper gives the BL198 a glittery finish appropriate for stage and recital settings, while the cushioned lining and suede sole make it comfortable and functional for extended studio practice. It is a versatile option for dancers who want one shoe that works across both contexts.
What type of floor is the suede sole on the BL198 designed for?
The suede sole on the Só Dança BL198 is designed specifically for use on hardwood sprung or smooth dance floors. Suede soles allow for the controlled glide and grip that ballroom and Latin footwork requires. Wearing suede-soled dance shoes outdoors or on rough surfaces will damage the sole and compromise performance.
How do I care for the sparkle canvas upper on the Só Dança BL198?
To maintain the glittery finish of the sparkle canvas upper, spot clean gently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoe in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the fabric finish and the rhinestone buckle embellishment. Store the shoes in a breathable bag away from direct sunlight to preserve the material and color.
