Questions, answered
Yes. Both shoes are built on a wider last, and the Cat is the one with the foot-shaped toe box. That shape, plus soft leather that moulds to your foot, gives space for different shapes of feet without pain or pressure, so your toes can splay. If your feet are on the extra-wide end, size up. For the most give, try Brushed Gold or Juniper. Bunions work in both shoes.
Either. Bunions aren't what decides it, because the soft leather moulds around a bunion instead of pressing on it, and both shoes lace up so you can ease off across the instep. What decides it is the toe box, covered below.
The Cat. Its foot-shaped toe box is the one that follows a forefoot that spreads out, so your toes sit where they naturally fall. The Ava's almond toe box won't give you that width at the front, so go with the Cat here.
Two questions settle it.
- Does your foot fit into a pointed toe box? If it doesn't, go with the Cat.
- Do you want your toes to spread out? If you do, go with the Cat for that too.
The Ava is the one to pick if your feet do fit a pointed toe box and you want the traditional silhouette. Both lace up so you can adjust across the instep, and both work for bunions.
We size by length. Measure each foot heel to longest toe, take the bigger number, and match it to the chart on the shoe's page (Cat and Ava have their own charts). The soft leather moulds to your foot for width, so length is all you're solving for. Still unsure? Your first exchange is free in both Canada and the US. See the size & fit guide.
All social dance styles that need a slick, sliding sole. Our customers dance Lindy Hop, West Coast Swing, Salsa, Jive, and much more, all on a natural leather sole built to glide.
