  • Wide All Leather Swing Era dress shoes in the style of men's captoes from the 1932 Chicago Mail Order Catalog. These are approximately EE-EEE width. Exactly what you want to wear for vintage dances like Lindy Hop, West Coast Swing, etc.
  • Our in-house EEE dancer has designed these to his personal specifications. He hates ugly, bulbous wide shoes and made them with much more style than most wide dress shoes available for men. Bonus: he says a problem with wide dress shoes is that they have wide ankles, too! Ours do not.
  • These are made specifically for dancing on wooden dance floors - do not wear them them outside..
  • See sizing recommendations below.
  • Item #: 447W-BK

SPECS:

Features the Aris Allen Raw Sole: a flexible hard leather sole and heel made especially to provide you with the action you want on the dance floor. Ask any dance instructor: the “fastness” of the sole forces you to “find your center” immediately.

Heel height is approximately 1"

SIZING TIPS - (ALL SHOES ARE USA SIZES):
(Our returns show we are right about 90% of the time)

CHECK THE PHOTOS FOR OUR CHART WITH MEASUREMENTS (measurements of the inside of the actual shoe - NOT the measurements of your foot)

These are Wide Shoes and are running pretty true-to-size. So start with your men's dress shoe size - the size you measure on the Brannock Device (the metal thing at the shoe store) - and stick with your normal size or go up to the larger size if you usually find you're in between sizes. Feel free to call us if you need help figuring out your size.

Narrow width: 
Test dancers with narrow feet will not be happy with these. You're better off with our medium-width Men's 1932 Captoes instead.

Medium width:
Test dancers with medium width feet will not be happy with these unless they usually wear extra-wide shoes because they have bunions or need extra room for inserts or orthotics. Otherwise you're better off with our medium-width Men's 1932 Captoes instead.

Wide width: 
These are roomy and are made for wide feet. Feedback from dancers says that these are approximately EE-EEE. If you are EEE you may want to go up a half size to get the width you need.

ABOUT "BLUCHER" CONSTRUCTION:
This captoe is made in the Blucher style, meaning that unlike most dress shoes they are constructed to open and close across the foot with laces (rather than being stitched down at the base of the laces like Balmoral construction) to allow you to adjust the fit to your liking. This means they often fit a variety of widths, depending on how loosely or tightly you tie them.

ABOUT THE ARIS ALLEN RAW SOLE:

  • The Aris Allen Raw Sole is made from flexible hard leather that gets a little “faster” over time by repeatedly absorbing the natural humidity in the air (especially at a dance) and drying. The bottom of the sole and heel is made from sanded hard leather and performs a lot like Chrome Leather (suede) which allows you to spin and slide, and still control the floor. If you find the sole has picked up dirt from the floor and is slowing down, just shuffle your feet on the sidewalk once or twice to refresh it.
  • The raw leather surface is designed for the intermediate / advanced dancer - but they're also great as a second pair for beginners... the “fastness” of the sole forces you to “find your center” immediately.
  • This style was created to give you a shoe that is similar to what was being worn when swing dancing was invented. If you want to look authentic on the dance floor you need to be wearing the same thing that dancers were wearing in the 20s, 30s, and 40s.

Sturdy and cute!

So easy to install. It was my first time using drywall anchors and it was a breeze. Only the middle screw is in a stud and two other screws in anchors. They are very sturdy. Very pleased with this purchase. I bought a second set for our second bathroom too.

These are beautiful. Great choice
Color: Black, Size: 24"W x 6.5"D, 2Packs
I initially had brought these and had to return them, because I brought the wrong size. I returned them and got the correct size. I love them, they are very sturdy and well made. They are easy to install, looks great and the size was perfect too. They are great and are worth every penny. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THEM and will be getting another pair.

Decent enough, but needs better anchors
Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 27.5"W x 6.5"D, 2Packs
The included wall anchors are brittle. One out of 8 would shatter just on screwing them into drywall. All of them shatter and strip from driving the screw in. That said, the bracket holds, and the shelves are nice for dry locations. Thin fiberboard with thin vinyl veneer, tilted very slightly towards the wall. Each kit comes with a magnetic level, and each shelf comes with an extra screw, anchor, and securing screw. Easy to intuit how to install, but includes easy instructions for those who do best with visual examples. I got 8 shelves and am content with them.
