  • 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.

Runs small. Order up a size.
Color: Black (001)/Jet Gray, Size: Small
I have small hands so I ordered a small. I even measured my hands to make sure. I couldn't even get the gloves on. They are cute though. They don't seem great for the snow, but I couldn't get them on to even try them out.

great cold weather wardrobe addition!
Color: (110) Summit White / Summit White / Khaki Base, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
So glad I got this. Got tired of trying to manage hats and ponytails in the Northeastern winter! Super well-made, very warm and soft, and so cute!!! I'm a sucker for a beige cable anything. sometimes I stick it around my neck too when I'm not feeling-scarf-y, and while it's not full coverage, I'm glad to have it.

Perfect everyday bag for men
Size: One Size Fits Most, Color: (025) Castlerock / Black / Black
It’s lightweight, attractive, and the perfect size for carrying the amount of things you want throughout the day. Can be casual or carried into a fine restaurant. The strap is long enough to wear cross body on a large man. Also, they provide a loop that allows you to fold up the strap and turn it into a short handled bag. Great price for the quality and usefulness.
