Dance World Expert Tip

Hanami is designed to fit like a second skin rather than a traditional ballet shoe. The 4-way stretch canvas and patented seamless diamond gusset work best when the shoe sits close to the foot, allowing the fabric to move naturally without excess material around the arch or toes. Resist the temptation to size up too much, the closer the fit, the better Hanami performs.
