I had no idea what a difference it would make to dance in shoes made specifically for tango. They're wonderful. They're made of black laminated suede with a pewter leather trim. The leather is so amazingly soft it's hard to describe-- the phrase "soft as a baby's bottom" is accurate enough, but it doesn't carry enough panache to describe such sexy shoes. The leather sole glides over the dance floor like silk on silk. I thought I'd have to break them in, but ended up wearing them for five hours the first day I wore them (a tango intensive course) and didn't get a blister or so much as a tender spot, so I wore them for the five hours of the class the next day, too. If life fit me half as well as these shoes fit my feet, how grand that would be.

Moaike,
Beautiful shoes! I've been dancing for a couple of years myself. Can you tell me where you got that pair? Thanks!
