• 'Artiste SS' is the latest stunning addition to our collection of shoes for teaching and practice. Constructed inside just like the famous 'Heather Split-Sole' with the same fit, comfort, padding and flexible split-sole, the difference is in the style of the upper where we allow for greater creativity, combining several fabrics for our most artistic design! The 'Himalayan Rose' edition features a light, dusty pink 'Himalayan Rose' coloured upper paired with a mixture of textures including Metallic Rose Gold Camo around the laces, more Rose Gold on the tongue and Rose Gold Pixel around the arches.

  • - Ultra flexible with a split-sole design
    - Heel design bringing sole material over the back of the heel, offering a smoother drag and greater protection
    - Low heel for a broader array of dancing and greater balance
    - Lightweight
    - Gel padding and specialised arch support for enhanced support and comfort
    - Adaptable, used for many forms of dance as well as practice and teaching
    - Made in England

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Bespoke means your shoes are made especially for you. All of our dance shoes are handcrafted in our UK factory, which means we can offer customisations that other brands can’t—like different widths, heel heights, or even unique colour combinations. Whether it’s a small adjustment or a complete custom look, we’re proud to offer that flexibility to help you find your perfect fit.

    Not all bespoke options include a surcharge, but all bespoke orders are non-returnable and non-refundable. Production usually takes 3–5 weeks. If you’d like to explore a custom option, just get in touch with us at sales@ids-danceshoes.co.uk or call +44(0)1908 319937

  • Yes, we do accept returns and exchanges on most standard items, provided they are unworn and returned within our 30 day return period. However, bespoke orders are non-returnable and non-refundable due to their customised nature.

    Customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the item is found to have a manufacturing fault. If you believe your item is faulty, please contact us as soon as possible so we can review and resolve the issue quickly.
