Aris Allen Black 1940s Peep-Toe Mesh Oxford Swing Dance Shoes
Aris Allen is known for making vintage style swing dance shoes and reproduction models that are more authentic equipment for dancing swing than ordinary ballroom shoes are. Their philosophy being that your dancing will look more authentic if you wear the same style of shoes the inventors of the dance were wearing. The heel is approximately 2" inches (5.08cm) tall and the base of the heel is 1.50" inches (3.81cm) wide to keep you stable and has suede on the bottom. The mesh has a little "give" to it and women reported that these fit Average and Wide feet just fine. Women with very narrow feet thought it was loose in the front.
