Capezio dancewear Australia has been a trusted name in studios for over 130 years. From first ballet classes through to professional performance, the quality is consistent and the fit is reliable.

Why Studios and Dancers Trust Capezio

Capezio designs are developed with working dancers and teachers. That shows in every detail, from how a shoe breaks in to how a leotard holds its shape after repeated washing.

Consistent sizing across styles makes reordering straightforward
Materials are chosen for breathability, stretch, and long-term durability
Styles suit recreational dancers through to serious competitors
Widely used in Australian dance schools and exam syllabi

Ballet Shoes

The Hanami range is one of Capezio's most popular ballet shoe lines. Canvas and leather options are both available. Split-sole styles offer excellent flexibility for more advanced students. The Lily Full Sole Leather Ballet Shoe suits younger children and beginners who benefit from added support underfoot.

Hanami Canvas Split-Sole: lightweight, flexible, good for teens and adults
Hanami Leather Split-Sole: slightly more structure, same trusted fit
Lily Full Sole: ideal for children in early classical training
Light pink is the standard colour for most Australian syllabi

Jazz and Lyrical Shoes

The E-Series Slip On Jazz Shoe is a studio staple. It fits close to the foot, offers strong grip, and comes in tan for jazz and commercial styles. The Hanami Pirouette is a go-to for lyrical and contemporary dancers who want a minimal sole and clean lines for turns and floorwork.

E-Series Jazz: slip-on fit, durable rubber sole, suits most jazz syllabi
Hanami Pirouette: half-shoe style, suits lyrical, contemporary, and acro
Tan is the most common colour for jazz footwear in Australian studios

Sizing Guidance

Capezio sizing is generally true to foot length. Ballet shoes are typically ordered a half size down from street shoe size to allow for snug fit without excess fabric. Children's styles have slightly more growing room. When in doubt, check the size chart on each product page or contact our team for guidance.
