The abbreviation "LS" in the product name characterises our shoes with a street-ready leather sole. These models give you an unrivalled dancing experience - both on the dance floor and on the street.
The best choice of shoes for a hallux valgus depends heavily on the individual characteristics and position of the hallux. It is therefore difficult to give a generalised answer. Nevertheless, there are some models that have proven to be beneficial:

We also have dance shoes for wider feet. For women, these are our comfort shoes, which are cut wider and have a large tread area. For men, these are our extra-wide shoes.

Yes, of course! We offer various models with removable insoles for both men and women. This means you can easily insert your individual insoles and enjoy the comfort of your shoes.

This is a heel with a very low heel height that provides exceptional heel cushioning with every step. A micro heel promises a soft stance and light cushioning for the heels.
The majority of our bridal shoes are not only available with a dance sole but also with a street-ready leather sole. These models have the abbreviation "LS" in the product name. With this sole, you can walk or dance on the street without hesitation. Click here for the bridal shoes with roadworthy leather soles (LS)
For women's shoes, our heels start at 1 cm and go up to 9 cm. For men's shoes, we also start at 1 cm heels and go up to 4 cm. The heel is measured vertically downwards in the centre of the heel. You will always find the exact information in the product description of each shoe.
That depends on many things. How long have you been dancing? Do you prefer black or brightly coloured shoes? Do you have narrow or wide feet? What heel height do you prefer?

It's important that the shoes fit snugly but don't pinch uncomfortably. After a few dances, our leather moulds to your feet like a glove and still gives a little. We would be happy to advise you personally. Write us an e-mail at info@werner-kern.de or call us on +49 6181 62076.
