How to choose Pole Dance shoes?
Complete guide on how to choose Pole Dance shoes
1. First, you need to decide on the height of the platform:
- 7-inch - heel 18 cm, platform 7 cm
- 8-inch - heel 20 cm, platform 10 cm (our recommendation)
- 9-inch - heel 23 cm, platform 13.5 cm
-
10-inch - heel 25.5 cm, platform 16 cm
If you are a complete beginner and it is extremely uncomfortable for you to walk or dance wearing heels, you should start with a lower platform (7-inch). If you feel comfortable when wearing heels, then you can quickly master dancing with 8-inch shoes. Well, for the most advanced girls there is always an opportunity to switch on 9-inch shoes.

Decide on the model: shoes or boots?
What style are you planning to dance?
- Pole Exotic Hard: boots are best choice. Your foot should be fixed and protected during difficult tricks and jumps.
- Pole Exotic Flow or Frame Up: both options are perfect, trust your taste.
Choose correct size
We highly recommend measuring your foot and choosing size according to our size chart (you can find it below).
It’s worth taking into account that any material will stretch with regular training, so we advise you to size down and choose shoes a half size smaller compared to your everyday footwear. You are always welcome to visit our Showroom in Tallinn and try on the shoes you are interested in.

Extend the life of the shoes
To extend the life of the shoes, we recommend using shoe protectors during your workouts. We are happy to assist you with choosing the right color and material of shoe protectors.

Enjoy your shopping and dancing!
