Elly Art. 101 - Caribbean - 8HR Spool Heel - Cipria Lamar Fabric - Criss-cross Ankle Strap | Nicole Dance Shoes

The dance shoe starts from the bottom: the buffalo suede sole of Elly art. 101 — soft, brushed, and made of buffed leather — ensures the perfect glide on indoor floors, allowing for fluid pivots without sticking or losing contact with the ground. It is the technical foundation that makes every figure precise; use a specialized wire brush to maintain its properties over time.

The crisscross ankle strap is designed to securely lock the ankle while distributing pressure evenly: maximum security during rotational movements, without constriction. The crossover also adds a sophisticated, feminine aesthetic, with a decorative effect that gives the shoe character and personality. The 8HR flared heel completes the system with smooth weight distribution, ideal for sensual pivots in bachata sensual and for those seeking stability on a medium-height heel.

The powder pink Lamar fabric upper is the choice for those with a wide foot: the model is designed to be particularly enveloping, adapting to the shape of the foot without squeezing. The semi-rounded open toe lightens the profile and lets the toes breathe. Inside, the 4mm anti-shock and antibacterial memory gel insole absorbs impact and reduces fatigue in the ball of the foot, while the non-slip genuine leather footbed keeps the foot steady and dry for the duration of the dance.

Elly art. 101 is a handcrafted Nicole dance shoe, made in Italy, for those looking for an enveloping, technical model suitable for salsa, bachata, kizomba, and ballroom dancing.
