Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Só Dança Tara TA55 tap shoe come in?
The Só Dança Tara TA55 is available in adult sizes 4.0 through 13.0, in both medium and wide widths, making it one of the more inclusive size ranges in the Só Dança tap shoe collection.
Does the TA55 run true to size?
The Tara TA55 generally fits true to size. Dancers between sizes or with a wider forefoot may prefer to size up or select the wide width option for added comfort during long rehearsals or performances.
What colors does the Tara TA55 come in?
The Só Dança Tara TA55 is available in three colors: Black, Caramel, and Tan. These options make the shoe versatile for stage costumes, recitals, and everyday tap class.
Are the taps already attached to the TA55, and can they be replaced?
Yes, the Tara TA55 comes with high-quality screwed-on taps and rubber toe and heel pads already attached. Because the taps are screwed on rather than nailed, they can be replaced by a professional cobbler when worn down.
How should I care for the Só Dança Tara TA55?
Wipe the artificial leather upper with a slightly damp cloth after use and allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat. Use a leather conditioner periodically on the genuine leather sole to maintain flexibility and extend the life of the shoe.
How does the Tara TA55 compare to a flat tap shoe for beginners?
The Tara TA55 features a 1.5-inch tapered heel, which provides a modest lift that many musical theater and stage performers prefer for its appearance and sound projection. Beginners comfortable with a low heel will find the TA55 stable and supportive, while those seeking a completely flat sole may prefer a different style in the Só Dança tap shoe range.
