Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Só Dança Brio SD120 fit compared to standard ballet slippers?
The Brio SD120 is cut from a single piece of stretch canvas shaped specifically for the left and right foot, so it fits more precisely than symmetrical slippers. It is designed to mold closely to the dancer's foot. If your child is between sizes, it is generally recommended to size up to allow room for growth while still maintaining a snug fit.
What widths does the Só Dança Brio SD120 come in for children?
The Brio SD120 child's ballet slipper is available in four widths: A (narrow), B (medium), C (wide), and D (extra wide). This range makes it suitable for a variety of foot shapes, which is especially helpful when fitting young dancers whose feet are still developing.
Does the Brio SD120 come ready to wear, or does it need elastics sewn on?
The Só Dança Brio SD120 comes with pre-sewn crossed elastics, so it is ready to wear straight out of the box. No additional sewing is required, making it a convenient choice for parents and studio owners.
What is the sole construction of the Só Dança Brio SD120?
The Brio SD120 features a split sole design with smaller suede toe and heel pads that are lightly cushioned. The split sole allows for greater flexibility and arch articulation, while the suede pads provide the right amount of grip and floor connection for ballet technique.
How should I care for the Só Dança Brio SD120 canvas ballet slipper?
Canvas ballet slippers like the Brio SD120 can typically be hand washed in cool water with a mild detergent and left to air dry flat. Machine washing is not recommended as it can distort the shape and affect the elastic. Avoid direct heat sources such as dryers or radiators when drying.
How does the Só Dança Brio SD120 differ from a leather ballet slipper?
The Brio SD120 is made from stretch canvas rather than leather, which allows it to conform more closely to the foot's shape and requires less break-in time. Canvas slippers are also lighter in weight and tend to show the foot's line clearly, making them a popular choice for ballet instruction. The stretch canvas construction of the Brio SD120 is particularly well suited to the flexibility needs of young, developing dancers.
