This Ladies Jason Samuels Smith Tap Shoe by Bloch has a triple stacked heel and double stacked hard leather outsole for durability.  

Specially developed metal bonding procedures to ensure that the screws that hold the taps in place will not loosen without modification by the dancer.  

Oxford style, available in luxury soft grain leather.  

Canvas and Kashmir lining provide comfort.  

Engineered to achieve maximum tap plate contact with a flat surface. 

High quality steel resonance plate between the tap and leather outsole achieving exquisite depth and pitch of sound.  Shorter break in time than a conventional built up tap shoe with counter free toe box so the upper conforms to the foot for extra comfort and fit.

Bloch recommends you choose a half size up from your women's street shoe size. For Tweens/youth they recommend you choose one and a half sizes up from your normal street shoe size.
