BL164 Silver Ballroom & Latin Dance Shoes • 2.5" Flared Heel
BL164 Silver Ballroom & Latin Dance Shoes • 2.5" Flared Heel
Simple, elegant and incredibly easy to dress up, the So Danca BL164 Silver Dance Shoes bring a polished finish to Ballroom, Latin and social dancing. Their bright metallic silver colour makes them particularly lovely for dancers who want one versatile pair that can move easily from lessons to parties, performances and special occasions.
So Danca BL164 Personality
Silver • Refined • Feminine • Light-Catching
BL164 proves that silver doesn't need glitter to make an impression. The smooth metallic finish catches the light naturally, while the fine straps keep the overall look delicate rather than flashy.
It's an especially versatile colour for performance and occasion wear: bright enough to stand out against black, jewel tones and darker costumes, yet neutral enough to work beautifully with softer colours too.
So Danca BL164 Ballroom & Latin Shoes – Design & Performance
BL164 combines an open-toe multi-strap front with slender crossing straps through the midfoot, creating a light, feminine silhouette while keeping the foot comfortably contained. An adjustable buckle allows the upper to be secured to the individual foot.
The 2.5" flared heel gives the shoe noticeably more height than So Danca's lower social styles while retaining a broader base beneath the heel. This creates a lovely middle ground for dancers ready for a more elegant ballroom profile without moving into the narrower, higher heels associated with more advanced Latin footwear.
Underfoot, the full suede dance sole provides the controlled combination of glide and traction required for turning, travelling and directional changes on suitable indoor dance floors. Só Dança identifies suede soles as a key feature of ballroom footwear because of this balance between grip and glide.

Dance World Notes
BL164 sits beautifully between social and more polished dance footwear.
The 2.5" heel gives it a noticeably dressier silhouette than a beginner low heel, but the flared shape keeps the overall feel approachable.
The silver is the star.
There are no crystals or heavy embellishments competing for attention. The metallic finish and fine strapwork do all the work, which is exactly why this shoe looks so clean.
Dance World Fit Advice
Overall Fit
BL164 is a medium-width dance sandal and fits true to size for most dancers.
Social & Recreational Dancers
Begin with your regular UK dance shoe size. The foot should feel comfortably contained without the straps cutting across the toes.
Open-Toe Fit
The toes should sit naturally close to the front edge of the sole without gripping or extending significantly beyond it.
Secure the Straps
Adjust the crossing strap so the heel remains comfortably anchored while walking, turning and transferring weight.
Dance World sizing recommendations are intended as a starting point. Dance shoe fit is individual and can vary with foot width, toe shape, instep height and personal preference.
