Get your perfect fit in 90 seconds

Because our pairs are custom-crafted to your unique feet, taking 90 seconds to measure accurately ensures a glove-like fit with zero pinching and prevents the hassle of exchanges and returns.

What you need

  • A blank sheet of paper (A4 or larger)
  • A flat wall & hard floor (no thick carpets)
  • A pencil & a standard ruler (with cm)

Part 1 Foot length

  1. Step 01

    Position

    Place the paper on the floor against a flat wall. Stand upright on the paper with your heel lightly touching the wall. Put your full weight on your feet.

  2. Step 02

    Mark

    Hold the pencil straight up (strictly 90° vertical) and mark a dot right at the tip of your longest toe.

  3. Step 03

    Measure

    Step off. Measure the straight distance from the edge of the paper (the wall line) to your dot in centimetres (cm).

Part 2 Foot width

  1. Step 01

    Locate

    Stand on the paper and find the widest bone-to-bone points on the ball of your foot (just below the big toe joint and the pinkie toe joint).

  2. Step 02

    Mark

    Hold the pencil vertical and mark a dot directly beside each joint on the paper.

  3. Step 03

    Measure

    Step off. Measure the straight horizontal distance between these two dots in centimetres (cm).

Quick rules to avoid sizing errors

  • Do not slant the pencil: tilting it inward or outward will add or subtract up to 1 cm.
  • Stand while measuring: feet naturally expand when supporting your body weight.
  • Measure both feet: always use the numbers from your larger foot.

How your Natya pair should fit

Dance shoes are designed to fit snugly. They will naturally stretch, up to half a size wider, with use, depending on the material. Even after breaking them in, they should feel secure and supportive. A short break-in period is normal. The shoes will soften and mould to your feet after a few uses.

Unlike street footwear, dance shoes offer minimal extra space beyond the toes. For open-toe heels, it is completely normal for the toes to slightly extend beyond the sole when pointing. In fact, if you can see the tip of the insole while pointing your toes, the length is ideal.

Choosing the right heel height

At Natya, comfort meets performance. While all our heels are designed for superior comfort, choosing the right height depends on your usage:

  • Beginners & long practice sessions: flats or heels up to 2.5 inches
  • Intermediate to advanced dancers: higher heels based on comfort and experience
