Frequently asked questions about tango shoes

Which heel height is suitable for tango beginners?
For beginners, we recommend a heel of 5-6 cm. This provides sufficient stability while you learn the basic steps. As your technique improves, you can switch to 7-8 cm for more elegance.

What is the difference between tango and salsa shoes?
Tango shoes often have a closed toe and a wider heel for more stability during slow, controlled movements. Salsa shoes are more likely to have an open toe and a slimmer heel for faster footwork.

Can I also wear tango shoes outside?
No, the suede sole is only suitable for indoor floors. Wearing them outside will damage the sole and reduce the glide. Use heel protectors when walking to the dance venue.
