Aris Allen Women's Black and White 1950s Mesh Wingtip Swing Shoes
These cuties are a perfect copy of an early 1950s oxford shoe!
This style is a vintage reproduction and features Blucher construction that allows you to tighten or loosen the laces to control the fit on the widest part of your foot.
Made with flexible suede-bottom soles and heels and a soft foam footbed which is perfect for dancers of all skill levels.
Wingtip oxfords have the advantage of looking dressy even though they have a shoe lace closure.
Dancers who tried these on said they fit about the same as your street shoe size.
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 1 3/4 " and the base of the heel is 1 1/2" wide to keep you stable. Because this style is made with a Blucher style construction - which means you can customize the width by loosening or tightening the laces because the bottom of the laces area is not sewn together - it works well with most widths.
