I was wondering if anyone know of a brand of practice sneakers that have a leather sole?
thanks

Well, I usually use Bloch dance sneakers, and they seem to be frictionless enough. Is there a particular reason why you're looking for a leather bottom? I know that they sell suede bottoms that you can add to a shoe. There's probably a leather version too, I would think.

I doubt anyone makes sneakers with leather soles.

I had a shoe repair place put suede soles on the bottom of a pair of dance sneakers. They came out great. I'm sure you could have leather soles put on as well.

I travel to see my teacher. So, while I am there I take alot of lessons in a row and it can be a bit much with my regular shoes. Just thought that some dance sneakers with leather soles might work good. The regular kind doesn't allow enough movement for me.

I just bought these Aris Allen shoes for practice. They look like a retro running shoe, but with a suede bottom. The are very light, comfortable and inexpensive. I've only worn them once, so I can't speak about durability. But they seem well made.

Those are nice! They look a lot more suitable for dancing than the clunky dance sneakers.

Sure they make dancing sneakers with leather soles! Sansha makes a ton of them. Salsette is the style I have. check www.newyorkdancestore.com Killer prices, too. Check the clearance section.
