Orza Pro® 2.0 runs true to street shoe size

ORZA sizing

If you’ve ever ordered ballet shoes online and had no idea what size to get — you’re not alone. Most ballet brands run 2 or more sizes smaller than a street shoe, making sizing confusing and frustrating. At ORZA, we kept it simple: we run true to your US street shoe size. If you wear a size 8 sneaker, you order a size 8 ORZA.

Choose your fit

Not sure how snug you want your shoe? Here’s a simple guide:
Street shoe size — a standard, true-to-size fit. This is where most dancers start.
Half size down — for dancers who prefer an exceptionally snug fit, with the shoe hugging every contour of the foot.
Half size up — a more relaxed, comfortable fit. Great for class, rehearsal, and longer days in the studio.

Width

The ORZA Pro® 2.0 comes in three
widths — narrow, medium, and wide. Width is independent of length size, so choose the
width that best reflects your foot shape.

Between sizes?

Order both — returns and exchanges
are always free. There’s no risk in trying.

Still not sure?

Sarah Orza — former principal
ballerina and co-founder of ORZA — is happy to help you find your perfect fit.

 Orza Pro® 2.0

The ORZA Pro 2.0 is a cushioned, split-sole ballet shoe built for dancers who want more support, comfort, and shock absorption than a traditional canvas slipper offers. Designed by a former professional ballet dancer, it features a patented cushioning system paired with a flexible split sole, making it the best ballet shoe for class, rehearsal, and performance.

I am absolutely in love with these shoes! They are the most comfortable ballet flats you could ever wear and support you while you’re dancing! And I haven’t seen anybody taking about this but they make your arches look 10x better! I am in love! Never going back!

João L, Pre-Pro Ballet Dancer

You know that feeling at the end of a long class — when your heels are screaming, and your feet just want a break? That’s not a you problem. That’s a shoe problem.

Ballet shoes haven’t changed in over a hundred years. Seth Orza danced through that reality at New York City Ballet — until a foot injury nearly ended his career. He couldn’t find a shoe that helped, so he built one.

The Orza Pro® 2.0 looks exactly like the ballet shoe you’ve always worn. Inside, everything is different.

Popular sizes and colorways sell out fast — if your size is showing, grab it. And if they’re not quite right, returns are free.

Reintroducing the ballet shoe. Finally done right.

Product Details

•      Better stability means cleaner turns.

•      Real cushioning means more explosive jumps.

•      Metatarsal support means you can push through a full day of rehearsal and still have something left.

•      A fit so precise it disappears — leaving nothing but beautiful lines.

Most dancers notice the difference in their first class. After that, there’s no going back.

    The white version is too narrow

    This is my 12th pair of Orza, so I know my Orza well. I have loved them all before.

    I normally get size 13 W. However, there is something off with the width of the white colorway. The width feels narrower compare to the other colors. So I bought the 13.5 W hoping it would feel better but still feels tight. So now this is my 3rd pair of white colorway I got in size 14 W (a whole size up). I still feel there's something off with the production batch of the white colorways in Orza Pro 2.0.

    Pain Free Dancing

    After hearing about Orza Pro for the past several years, I finally decided to give them a try for a full length production of Cinderella that I was performing .

    After the first performance, I realized that my usual aches and pains that I normally have in my hips and back weren’t present. With the role that I was dancing having a lot of jumping and partnering, all the while on a unsprung floor, I was perplexed as to how well my body was doing. It wasn’t until the fourth day in a row of running the full ballet that I realized that my well being was due to switching to these shoes with the shock absorption that they provided.

    On top of the physical benefits to my body of switching to these shoes full time, for both my rehearsals and performances, they are also some of the most well constructed. I have worn almost every brand of mens flat shoes over the course of my career and I can confirm that these are the most durable that I have ever worn.

    I don’t see myself using any other shoes for the remainder of my career and I couldn’t recommend the Orza Pro enough to any student or professional dancer. A true “five star” product and the most innovative piece of equipment to come to the ballet world in a long time.

    Hi Mark-David!

    Wow, what an absolutely incredible review! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the ORZA Pro 2.0 during your production of Cinderella. As a professional dancer, your feedback means everything to us. We are thrilled to hear that our shoes made such a significant difference in your physical well-being - to know that you didn't experience your usual aches and pains in your hips and back, especially while performing such a demanding role with lots of jumping and partnering on an unsprung floor, is exactly what we hoped to achieve with our shock absorption technology.

    It's wonderful to hear that you've found them to be the most durable men's flats you've worn throughout your career, and that you're planning to use them for both rehearsals and performances going forward. To be called "the most innovative piece of equipment to come to the ballet world in a long time" is truly the highest compliment we could receive!

    Happy Dancing! :)
