Frequently Asked Questions

What heel height does the Só Dança Riana CH791 have?
The Só Dança Riana CH791 features a 1.5-inch tapered heel, offering a stable and moderate lift that is well suited for character dance, musical theatre, and beginner to intermediate performers. Dancers who prefer a 2-inch heel can explore the Robin CH792 model instead.
Does the CH791 come in wide widths?
Yes. The Só Dança Riana CH791 is available in both Medium and Wide width options, making it a versatile choice for dancers with varying foot shapes. Size options run from children's sizing starting at 3.0 through adult sizing up to 13.0.
Is the CH791 suitable for children as well as adults?
Yes. The Riana CH791 is available in children's sizes starting at 3.0s, as well as a full range of adult sizes. This makes it a practical option for studios that outfit dancers across multiple age groups with a consistent, classic character shoe style.
What is the CH791 made of, and how should I care for it?
The Só Dança Riana CH791 features an artificial leather upper and a suede sole. To maintain the suede sole's grip and texture, brush it regularly with a suede brush to remove debris. Wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth after each use, and store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
What is the difference between the CH791 and the Von CH791VG?
The Só Dança Riana CH791 is crafted with an artificial leather upper, while the Von CH791VG is a vegan version designed without any animal-derived materials. Both share the same classic character shoe silhouette and 1.5-inch heel, so dancers can choose based on their material preference without sacrificing style or fit.

Comfortable Right Out of the Box

Ordered a half size up from street shoes, as recommended by the online sizing scan. Put on and wore for a 2-1/2 hour dance in the afternoon and another 2 hour dance that evening. A very slight pressure on my big toe on one side but no actual discomfort. Sole is perfect for dancing on a wood floor. Easy turns, no slipping. Very happy with the sizing guide and my purchase.

Elegant, comfortable and understated

I had foot surgery years ago and have a hard time getting comfortable heels but the shoes I purchased from So Danca promise to be the exception! I had to get a half size larger but I found it easy to reorder and return.

Love These Shoes

I have an older model of this shoe (made in Brazil) CH50-W in 8.5 L. I took up ballroom in the late 90's to attend dances at the historic Glen Echo Ballroom in Maryland with my children and their friends. The shoes still have perfect soles but the top is peeling after sitting in the closet for so long. Is there any product that can re-color, smooth and seal the tops of the shoes ? I would love to be able to wear them out again as they are super comfortable and I am aging. It's been awhile. Yesterday I took them to a shoe repair but they only work with leather. Hoping someone here knows what I can do!

So good

I'm not one to write reviews but these shoes blew me away. They're high quality, price is great, and comfortable. If you're looking for new character shoes, honestly these are IT.
