Question:I've always worn Capezios but lately my shoes have been getting deforming, causing my heel to pop out during class and if i buy a new pair the same thing happens. I only wear split sole and my studio requires leather.

leather is stiffer so i dont think you can find a shoe that doesnt pop off your foot unless you break it in real good.
that happened to me while i danced.

is it really cold near you? the coldness might be causing your shoe to stiffen. try puting them in a ziplock bag and seal it without any air. this really helps my leather horseback riding gloves so they dont get stiff.
find out why you cant have anything else but leather. all other types should work just the same! they also will be more flexible and form fitting, which will go along with your foot instead of popping out.

u must find a shoe that fits or it is no good

Try buying Bloch and if you can get the leather shoes with the canvas instep (where the split sole is). The canvas is more flexable and should move with your foot instead of it popping off.

try Bloch that's a good brand.

you might like the bloch prolite, or maybe the grishko professional leather slipper. you can also try to criss-cross the elastic instead of doing one piece, and that will help secure your shoe to your foot. good luck!!

Sansha!!

sew the elasic really close to the heal (even if they are pre-sewn. rip them out and re-sew them.
