    My daughter currently has a 7.5toe is near the end.

    I want to order another pair. what size should I order? Her street shoe is a size 9.5-10.

    Hello! Thank you for contacting us. We strongly recommend to order 1/2 a size larger that the street size or the same as the street size. We recommend the size 10 since she's in between sizes.

    What is the difference between lace up Techno tap shoes and TapFlex tap shoes?

    The difference is the taps. The Shockwave taps that are on the TapFlex have a louder, deeper sound.

    What size should I get, size 8.5 in mens.

    What size tap shoe should I get if i am an 8.5 in mens?

    This is a unisex shoe, but it is fit for women. Men need to order 2 to 2.5 sizes larger than their street shoe size.
    - DDS Customer Service (12/27/2013)

    I had problems finding the right fit with this shoe. I ordered size 9 and 9.5 and neither fit (my regular street shoe is women's size 9). 9 was way too small and 9.5 was way too big. - Dancer928 (10/17/2014)

    Can I replace the taps with Bloch Techno Taps?

    I really would like these shoes, however i think i prefer the techno taps. i believe i can get my hands on some. Will the screws & screw holes be in the same place, will these screws be long enough?

    To get the proper fit for new taps you would want to consult a cobbler or a shoe repair. We unfortunately do not know the comparison of hole depths or the placement of the screws between the fitted taps and the techno taps. However, if the screws are different lengths/widths you can always look to purchase them at your local hardware store.

    what size tap shoe would you recommend for a 10 year old that wears a size 4 to 5 street shoe? Is th

    If a child is wearing a child size 4 or 5 you would need to convert them into adult sizing. How you do that is by first adding 2 sizes to their child size. That would mean they wear would wear an adult 6 or 7. You then look to see if the suggested fit for this shoe advises to go either go up or down more. The suggested fit, which you can see on the sizing tab, advises to order same to 1/2 a size larger than street shoe. What this means is that some customers find their appropriate fit is to order same as their street shoe while others find it necessary to go up a 1/2 a size.
