Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Só Dança Briar SD110L come in?
The Só Dança Briar SD110L is available in adult sizes 4.0L through 14.0L and in five widths: A, B, C, D, and E. This broad size and width range accommodates a wide variety of foot shapes, including sizing suitable for men's ballet.
How does the Briar SD110L fit compared to a standard street shoe size?
Só Dança recommends that adult dancers consult the brand's size chart before purchasing. Ballet shoes typically fit one to two sizes smaller than street shoes, but the five available widths allow for a more precise fit. Dancers with wider feet may size up or select a wider width.
Does the Briar SD110L require any sewing before it can be worn?
No sewing is required. The Só Dança Briar SD110L comes with pre-sewn crossed elastics, making it stage-ready and studio-ready straight from the box.
What is the sole of the Briar SD110L made from, and why does it matter for ballet?
The Briar SD110L features a split sole with suede pads at the ball and heel. Suede provides reliable traction on sprung and marley floors while allowing the dancer to feel the floor beneath them, which is essential for developing correct ballet technique and proprioception.
How should I care for the Só Dança Briar SD110L to extend its lifespan?
Because the upper is made from premium leather, it is best to wipe the shoe clean with a soft damp cloth after use and allow it to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid submerging leather ballet shoes in water. Store them in a breathable bag to maintain their shape and prevent moisture buildup.
Is the Briar SD110L suitable for men's ballet?
Yes. The Só Dança Briar SD110L is sized through 14.0L and is available in wider widths up to E, making it a practical choice for male ballet dancers. The higher vamp line and structured leather upper also provide the coverage and support that many men's ballet programs require.
