Our Essential Jig Shoe is an ideal jig shoe for beginners and intermediate level Irish dancers who want a bit of extra support when learning the moves. These jig shoes are crafted with care and feature high-quality smooth genuine leather uppers for a sleek look that is traditional to formal Irish dance. The Essential Jig Shoe also feature a black suede sole that offers both style and comfort to support the structure and arch of the foot while creating the perfect amount of friction for the dance floor. One of the best values for money of any introductory Irish dance shoe we offer, these jig shoes are as essential as the name implies for dancers or parents.
When new, these shoes will be stiff, allowing them to be uniquely broken in by every individual dancer until they conform to the wearer’s foot and dance style. The suede sole is ideal for early dancers who need a bit of extra support while training their arches and tendons to become stronger through practice. The benefit of the suede sole is that it affords a bit more flexibility than a true beginner’s leather sole for learning more advanced moves. But whether you’re buying these for practice or competition, the high-grade interiors are specially designed to reduce wear on the foot and lessen the risk of blistering or irritation.
These jig shoes are topped with black laces and an adjustable strap with simple yet strong open/close buckles, that make it easier to take on and off, especially in competition when you have to go from hard shoes to soft faster than it takes to do a heel click. The shoes are available in sizes 1 through 11 Adult, though please note sizes are UK sizing. Whether you or your child is learning to dance the jig for the first time, or returning to it after a few years out of practice, the Essential Jig Shoe is a can’t-beat deal at a highly competitive price.
