Product description
Ryan and ODonnnell are passionate about making high quality shoes that are fit for purpose. Irish dancing has evolved and the footwear must adapt with it and provide the protection and support required for such vigorous athletic moves.
As Irish dance has become a sport dancers deserve the same protection as any other athlete. We have looked at running shoes and taken key elements and technology from them and designed our dance shoes to reflect these advancements.
Our Evolution hard shoes are handcrafted in the UK using the finest of leathers offering supreme comfort and a glove like fit whilst giving support and durability. Our shoes feature out the box flexibility with black suede sole unit.
Everything about our shoes is designed for a reason. From Noene shock dispersion sole unit to help prevent and cure injury’s such as shin splints and tendentious to removing as many of the seams from inside the shoe which helps eliminate friction that causes blisters,
including a padded heel cushioning top line which sits higher on the heel to ensures the correct support is given around the ankle, keeping the foot in the shoe. We also make our uppers with 5 eyelets similar to a running shoe giving further support round the ankle.
Our heels and tips are semi hollow and therefore the lightest in the market. There are small chambers inside the heel which allows for the sound to be amplified which is what gives our heel and tips a sharper sound.
The tips and heels on the Evolution shoes give dancers better posture as they are symmetrical, and made from advanced mould technology and not individually hand grinded down.
SHOE SIZING
Please scroll down to see size charts for pumps / soft shoes and jig / heavy shoes
If you are unsure of the shoe size you require, we recommend that you draw around your foot on a plain piece of paper and measure between its two longest points (Heel to Big Toe) in Millimetres. Choose the Size corresponding to that measurement in the Drop-down menu. eg – 210-213 / 2.0
Please note:
The chart below measures your actual street shoe size. We recommend you drop down a half size to full size for hard shoes e.g. if you measure 210mm drop to a size 1.0 and if you measure 213mm drop to a 1.5. With regards to our Soft Gel pumps and boys Revolution reel shoes collection we recommend you take the size as per the chart below, so take your street shoe size and drop only half a size should you want a very tight fit (our Soft Gel pumps and Revolution Boys shoes fit small so please be aware of this and order as per chart or half size down at the most).
How to Draw
Place the foot (in sock) on a blank piece of paper and draw around it, ensuring the pen/pencil is held vertically.
Draw a line along the foot from the two most extreme points (heel to toe) and measure. Clearly mark in MM’s the length of the foot.
Please also measure around the joint of your foot (the widest part) to estimate if you are a standard or wide fitting. The shoe will stretch to a small degree around the width of the foot over a period of time but should not stretch length wise so please chose the correct size.
Check the width by wrapping the measuring tape around the foot until it touches. Widths may differ by shoe size (example: for Size 5.5, the Standard Fit is between 210 mm and 223 mm and the Wide Fit is between 228 mm and 240 mm) so send the measurement to determine best fit.
