  • We are selling all of our slightly imperfect inventory off at a hefty discount! We originally sold these at $179.95. They are handmade dress shoes. They have a spot, mark, or wrinkle on them. If you're ok with that stock up now! And yes, they are returnable. Just don't step off the rug until you're sure they fit.
  • Handmade Swing Era dress shoes in the style of a spectator wingtip from the 1946 Sears and Roebuck Catalog. And when we say "handmade" we mean it. Every one of these has been individually cut and assembled by hand.
  • These are made specifically for dancing on dance floors - DO NOT wear them outside.
  • Features the Aris Allen Raw Sole: a flexible leather sole and heel made especially to provide you with the action you want on the dance floor. Ask any dance instructor: the “fastness” of the sole forces you to “find your center” immediately.
  • This is a slightly roomy style - customer feedback says it's a smitch taller than what they are used to. See sizing recommendations below.
  • Heel height is approximately 1".
  • Item #: 477-BW

SIZING TIPS - (ALL SHOES ARE USA SIZES):
(Our returns show we are right about 90% of the time)

These are running a little smaller than true-to-size. So start with your men's dress shoe size - the size you measure on the Brannock Device (the metal thing at the shoe store) - and go up a half size. Unless you are just a little smaller than the size you usually wear - then stay at that size. Call us if you need help figuring out your size.

Narrow width: 
Test dancers with narrow feet had to put thin inserts in them to get a good fit. If you are in between sizes the smaller of the two might be best for you.

Medium width:
Stick with your usual size if it's sometimes a little too long. If you are in between two sizes then go up a half size. Add a thin insert if it's the perfect length but a bit too roomy inside.

Wide width: 
These are roomy but are not made for wide feet. For instance; our 9.5 EEE test dancer could wear a size 10 but prefers our wide captoe instead.

BALMORAL STYLE:

These are traditional wingtips constructed in the Balmoral style. This means they are stitched across the ball of the foot and cannot be loosened or tightened the way a “Blucher” styled shoe can. Because of this they are not a good choice for anyone with extremely wide or narrow feet. Our Captoes have Blucher construction and are better suited for a wider variety of foot widths. Check out Swing Shoes 101 for more about this.

ABOUT THE ARIS ALLEN RAW SOLE:

  • The Aris Allen Raw Sole is made from flexible hard leather that gets a little “faster” over time by repeatedly absorbing the natural humidity in the air (especially at a dance) and drying. The bottom of the sole and heel is made from sanded hard leather and performs a lot like Chrome Leather (suede) which allows you to spin and slide, and still control the floor. If you find the sole has picked up dirt from the floor and is slowing down, just shuffle your feet on the sidewalk once or twice to refresh it.
  • The raw leather surface is designed for the intermediate / advanced dancer - but they're also great as a second pair for beginners... the “fastness” of the sole forces you to “find your center” immediately.
  • This style was created to give you a shoe that is similar to what was being worn when swing dancing was invented. If you want to look authentic on the dance floor you need to be wearing the same thing that dancers were wearing in the 20s, 30s, and 40s.

ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THESE SHOES:

They are absolutely 100% handmade. The cutting of the leather is done by hand - not stamped out, the glue is put on with a brush, not a machine, and the sewing, while done with a sewing machine, is done one at a time. You can even see the occasional pencil mark! This means that the shoe on your foot is the product of a craftsman who sees the shoe from start to finish. This also explains why you will find the occasional imperfection. They are made one at a time.

Not long lasting, but preferred by my dogs and not smelly
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have two pretty serious chewers. They prefer these bones over all of their longer-lasting dog bones, and these don't stink (which is more than I can say for most dog bones they like). I'm also less worried about digestion and choking hazards since these are rawhide-free. I buy these bones regularly and will continue to do so - just don't expect them to last more than a few minutes for big chewers.

My lab loves them!!
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I am not a fan of the price and I don't know why they are so pricy, but my lab lives them so I will treat him every once in awhile. I love that these take awhile for him to eat giving him more time to enjoy them.

Dog approved!
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My dog, a half pit bull and half chocolate lab, has a very sensitive stomach. With that in mind I have to always be wary of the things I buy her. With that in mind these seemed to work great! They don’t last as long as normal raw hide, so there is less “chew time” but she was excited when she received them! If your looking for a quick treat or reward for your dog these are great! If your looking for a bone/chewing alternative then these don’t quite meet that requirement.

Doberman Approved
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My 106lb Doberman refuses to eat anything but these and duck hearts- go figure- he does not like any type of carb, his diet consists of Taste of the Wild and boiled chicken, he gets one of these every night and wiggles his cute little butt off when he hears me getting the bag, he can hardly contain his excitement. He has NEVER had any issues of chocking or vomiting with these, I am a huge believer in sharing experiences when it comes to our fur babies, mine loves his biscuit (that's what we call it" I know it isn't a biscuit.

Great alternative to rawhide!
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
We have been getting these for quite some time for our black lab. He eats rawhide too quickly and ends up regurgitating it all over the floor. So, on the advice of our vet, we tried something else. We tried these after many other products. These are gone as quickly as rawhide (with my dog, that's 10 minutes... TOPS!), but he doesn't have the digestive issues. The fact that they chew up similar to rawhide is a big plus, since I don't like it when he can't finish it in one sitting - that's just a yucky mess laying around on the floor. I highly recommend these SmartBones for anyone whose dog can't digest rawhide well.
