Frequently Asked Questions
What heel height does the Só Dança Rinnah BL198 have?
The Rinnah BL198 features a 1.5-inch heel, making it a comfortable entry-level heel height suitable for beginners and dancers who prefer lower lift during extended practice sessions or social dance events.
How does the Rinnah BL198 fit, and should I size up or down?
The Rinnah BL198 is available in adult women's sizes and is designed for a snug, supportive fit through the strap closure. Só Dança recommends consulting the brand's standard shoe size chart, as dance shoes are typically worn closer to the foot than street shoes. If you are between sizes, sizing up is generally advised for open-toe styles.
What is the upper material on the BL198, and is it durable for regular dance use?
The BL198 features a sparkle canvas upper, which offers a lightweight, flexible feel with a glittery finish. Canvas dance shoes are well suited for studio practice and social dancing, though they are less resistant to heavy wear than leather or satin alternatives. The mesh insert between the straps adds breathability and flexibility.
What type of sole does the Só Dança Rinnah BL198 have, and what floors is it suitable for?
The Rinnah BL198 is fitted with a suede sole, which is the standard for ballroom and Latin dance shoes. Suede soles provide the controlled slide and grip needed for smooth footwork on hardwood and sprung dance floors. Avoid wearing suede-soled shoes on outdoor or wet surfaces, as this will damage the sole.
How should I care for the suede sole on the BL198?
To maintain optimal performance, brush the suede sole regularly with a suede brush to restore the nap and remove debris. Store the shoes in a shoe bag away from moisture. Avoid walking on carpeted or rough surfaces in these shoes, as this will wear down the suede and affect glide.
Is the Rinnah BL198 appropriate for performance as well as practice?
Yes. The rhinestone-embellished buckle and sparkle canvas upper give the BL198 a polished, stage-ready appearance, making it suitable for recitals, showcases, and social dance events. The 1.5-inch heel and cushioned lining also make it practical enough for extended practice sessions.
