Rude customer service

I just rang to ask why the measurements that I had added to my order did not show at checkout and was told that there was nowhere on the website to do that - I had literally just done it and have done it again since to make sure that I wasn't going mad. The representative then asked what the width of my foot is and when I told her, she said that was really wide and I should try measuring again - as if to say that my foot width isn't possible, I do have really wide feet and apparently their extra wide is 1.5cm too narrow for my bizarre feet. I already don't feel great about my weird feet but this attitude was entirely unnecessary. Needless to say, I will not be buying from here. Also, I do feel that if you are offering 'made to order' and asking the customer to send their measurements, it does suggest 'made to measure'

The worst service

The worst service. Express delivery to Europe doesn't work (I paid 47 euros for it). The sender refused to help me find the package that was lost in transit. The sender also refused to refund the money for the missing order. The sender refused to provide me with any assistance related to the order. This is not a reliable seller for Europe. I strongly do not recommend them.

Beautiful shoes, awful aftercare if something goes wrong

We have been buying four pairs of shoes (2 Latin, 2 ballroom), every 6 months for almost 8 years. Originally they were around £100 per pair, although recently this has increased to £130. They are beautiful shoes and fit very well. However, the latest pair of Latin shoes which arrived on 14 October lasted less than 8 weeks. In practice last week one strap snapped. I contacted IDS and was asked for photos, then asked was I sure we hadn’t added an extra hole (we didn’t). Eventually after some back and forth they offered to repair them. This seems ridiculous to me, since Timpsons can repair a strap without incurring the cost of 2 way delivery. I was also underwhelmed with their offer of “a voucher” (no value mentioned) for money off my next purchase. As a loyal customer of some 8 years standing I felt a replacement pair was more appropriate. I have been flatly refused in this request, hence this review. Other brands available are Supadance, Ray Rose.

Edit: yes, they offered to repair them. I don’t think that’s good enough. When I spend £130 on a pair of shoes I expect them to last more than 2 months. The fact that they “usually” do I would say means there was a problem with this particular pair, and a faulty product should be replaced. I have literally spent THOUSANDS with this company, but that counts for nothing.

Further edit: the latest pair of shoes although claiming to be the same size are longer and narrower. My daughter has nationals next week and no shoes, thanks to IDS, despite my having spent £260 since October on them. I would post photos if I could.

Hi Sarah

Thanks for taking the time to review us and we're sorry for your recent experience with us. It's very unfortunate that the strap broke - it's quite unusual. Having looked back at the email thread, we've offered to collect, repair and re-send to you (our cost of course - you wouldn't incur a cost of 2 way delivery) rather than replace the shoes as they're still quite new. This means we remove the existing strap and stitch in a brand new one. This is normally the preferred option to taking to Timpsons as we'd stitch in the strap that matches the Satin of the shoe so that it is done properly.

We thoroughly appreciate the amount of shoes you've had of ours over the years - hopefully you've had enough to appreciate that this is a one-off moment and that our shoes tend to hold up very well!

Kind Regards,
International Dance Shoes

BEWARE OF HIDDEN PRICES, BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE, BAD FITTING

BEWARE OF HIDDEN PRICES! I was charged the full amount at checkout with no mention of customs or duty fees, WHICH OTHER COMPANIES LIKE RAY ROSE DO CLEARLY DISCLOSE. After the order shipped, DHL contacted me asking for an additional $44 in duties that were never disclosed at purchase. When I contacted IDS, they rudely blamed me for "not knowing my country's policies" and they quoted a line buried in their Terms & Conditions,but this was not visible or clearly stated before payment, I even looked at the FAQs and terms for this. I was under the impression that by paying the shipping fees at checkout, all costs were covered.
IDS refused to take responsibility or offer a reasonable solution, and even stated that if I refuse delivery, I’ll still be charged for return postage. This experience felt misleading and dishonest. Be aware that your final cost could be significantly higher than what you pay at checkout, and customer support will not help you resolve it.
In addition, prior to purchase, I contacted IDS for advice on fitting with my measurements. The shoes fit horribly, my toes are past the end of the shoe, and to return them I would have to eat the 38 euros + 44 dollar duty that I paid, plus the shipping to send them back. NEVER purchasing from IDS again.

Shipping

The company didn't notify me about a double shipping payment of $116 after I payed £38 for shipping on their site. They claimed to have put it in the fine print where no one can see it and screwed me over saying if I want a refund I would have to pay double the $116 to send them back. Do not recommend these shoes if you don't live in the UK. Horrible customer service and bad notification about shipping.

Hi Caleb,

Thanks for taking the time to post a review and we're sorry for your experience. Sadly in the period where the US transitioned away from the de minimis rule & charging tariffs, there were some orders that incurred charges - however these are not double shipping costs - these are taxes and duty.

Before the rule change - there was no taxes and duty charged, and after, those charges came in.

Since, we have now started charging in USD and also include these charges at the checkout, so that we can send goods DDP which means a smoother service, with couriers no longer requesting further payments before delivery - which we appreciate will have been very frustrating.

Many thanks,
International Dance Shoes

WORST buying experience I've ever had

WORST buying experience I've ever had. Did not deliver my package. Will not refund my money and I'm being charged hundreds of dollars extra because I live in the United States and they shipped it back to the United Kingdom so now I'm supposed to pay for those charges? Literally lost $500 and received nothing. What did customer service do to help me? Nothing.

Dear Natalie,

We're very sorry for your experience. The request for duty has been very frustrating for US based customers in the aftermath of the new tariffs. Anything that ends up coming back to us is refunded (the cost of the shoes). We have notices on our website to highlight the changes and the taxes/duties that may need to be paid on arrival.

An update as of the end of November 2025 - we collect these charges at the point of purchase, so that goods are send DDP which means no further payments are requested at the point of delivery - ensuring a smoother experience. We now accept payments in USD. We also always suggested looking at our list of stockists online as we work with a lot of stockists across the US which we love for dancers to support.

Many thanks and we apologise again for your experience.

Très déçu, je n'ai jamais reçu ma commande... Aucune solution n'a été apportée par ERMES DANCE

Je me permets de vous contacter au sujet de ma commande passée sur votre site, portant sur une paire de chaussures de danse FIERY RED BY SARA PANERO. Cette commande, selon les informations de suivi, aurait été livrée par FEDEX directement dans ma boîte aux lettres. Cependant, je tiens à vous informer qu’elle n’est jamais arrivée à mon domicile.
Malgré mes démarches auprès de FEDEX, aucune solution satisfaisante n’a été apportée. Je suis particulièrement déçue de constater que votre service client ne répond pas à mes sollicitations et ne propose ni remboursement ni alternative pour résoudre ce problème.
Je vous rappelle qu'il est de votre responsabilité en tant que vendeur de garantir la livraison des produits commandés par vos clients. À défaut de réception de cette commande, je vous demande un remboursement intégral du montant payé dans les plus brefs délais.

Je vous invite à revenir vers moi rapidement pour me confirmer la prise en charge de cette demande. Sans réponse de votre part, je serai contrainte d’envisager des démarches auprès des organismes compétents afin de faire valoir mes droits.

Dans l’attente de votre retour,

Hello,

We believe you are reviewing the wrong company, because we are not 'Sara Panero' and we don't offer a shoe of this type.. We will flag this review because it is not about us.

Many thanks,

Bonjour,

Nous pensons que vous évaluez la mauvaise entreprise, car nous ne sommes pas « Sara Panero » et nous ne proposons pas de chaussures de ce type. Nous signalerons cet avis car il ne nous concerne pas.

Merci beaucoup,

Received a pair with different sizes (have photographic proof) and they definitely felt different on the feet. One fit great, another one hurting as it was small. Contacted the team and all they did was argued that it’s the same size, sent me their photos that didn’t prove anything and later finally admitted that there was a few mm difference. And the end of the day, they didn’t want to refund the posting cost even though there was clearly a manufacturing fault on their side. One of the worst customer experiences.

recommendation with shoe incorrect

"Our dance team ordered 6 pairs of shoes from this brand. Due to shipping and import costs, each person is paying €170 for a pair of shoes. Given this high amount, it's especially important that the shoes fit well. We sought assistance in advance to ensure the right sizes. In the email, we were given measurements for the width of our feet and the width options for the shoes. To be safe, we even ordered a narrower size than recommended, but even that was too wide. Unfortunately, 4 out of the 6 pairs don’t fit. Be careful! Due to the special soles, the shoes cannot be returned."

The delivery was the worst I've ever experienced: it took 4 weeks and went via UPS. Eventhough I was home every single day UPS didn't ring the bell & send the parcel back. I've contacted Joheela beforehand for the right tracking number - never got an answer. I am beyond disappointed and won't consider ordering with them again.

Hi Jazmin,

We're concerned this review might be for the wrong website because it is not tied to an order number and we cannot see an order with your name on our history. We also don't have any staff member called Joheela.

We will flag this review because we don't believe that it is for us.

Many thanks,

Working as a professional dancer I’ve…

Working as a professional dancer I’ve worn a lot of different dance shoes and have to say I’ve never had more problems with a physical shoe or with customer service than I have with this brand. They are extremely rude when trying to get any sort of help from them and their shoes fall apart so quickly. I ordered a pair of standard shoes after my previous pairs suede had started to fall off and rip after 3 months of use. I got my new pair in and within a week of wearing them the suede started to rip and separate from the shoe. I reached out and they refused to offer any sort of help, saying that I should just glue the shoe back together. After spending more than $600 on shoes with this company (and the possibility of so many more orders through me and my students) you’d think they would want to keep a customer. I will never been wearing these again, I’d rather switch to EF or Aida as they are extremely helpful and have actual quality shoes.

I had the first available appointment this morning and way made to feel welcome by all staff from beginning to end. Lewis was super helpful, attentive and patient whilst advising me on the best shoe for my salsa lessons in the wide fitting that I needed. I was able to try on several different designs before making my decision and didn't feel rushed at any point. A very pleasant and effortless experience (and I love my shoes!). I would highly recommend a visit to International Dance Shoes. Thank you Lewis!

Hi Nigel,

Many thanks for taking the time to review us. We have a few different fittings available and even though you already ordered wide - there is also extra wide. Also, we have our Gibson and Oxford styles which are also available as a classic leather dance shoe and these styles are more suited for a comfort fit too. Useful to know for when you're ready for your next pair!

Many thanks,
International Dance Shoes
