Salvatore Capezio was born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy. Uninterested in following in his father's footsteps as a construction engineer, he became an artist of his own right, a cobbler. In 1887, at the age of 17, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street, diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. Soon, the shop became a meeting place for dancers who would stop by to discuss their needs and to get a pair of his shoes. As Capezio's popularity grew, dancers from around the world made it a point to visit him and purchase his shoes. The innovation of the products that Salvatore Capezio created and the camaraderie he shared with the dancers molded the direction that his company would follow. In this image, the Capezio brand was established to promote and recognize ongoing achievements and participation in dance. Capezio products remain in the forefront in quality and in technological advances with innovations like the split-sole, the stretch-insert, the Dansneaker and the Tapsneaker. Capezio believes that their success is dependent upon the individual commitment of each customer to continually set new standards of creativity and performance, while preserving a reputation for dependability and distinction. Capezio pledges their support and dedication to the advancement of dance, theater and recreation in communities worldwide.

This shoe had a drawstring which was not on the academy issued ones. My little one has a wider foot and it gave her a perfect fit. The only downside is that it comes untied.

My daughters love their ballet shoes and each year when they grow out of them, we just order the next size up. The elastic goes all the way around so you can tighten or loosen as needed. One of my daughters has a very narrow foot and the other is a little wider but these were great for both. They hold up well with all of their dancing and they are comfortable on their feet from day 1. I would definitely recommend these for your tiny dancer!

Love Capezio shoes. The leather is beautiful. Wish they would sell narrow, but with the tightening elastic it help synch them up. You will not be disappointed. (My daughter wears a 13 in street shoes, so make sure you order larger than street shoes). My daughter is picky and is getting use to split sole, but LOVES these ballet shoes!
