<p>My D is a high school senior. She has the 2.5" Bloch SplitFlex T-straps in Tan and loves them. She needs new black character shoes for the show she is in, but we hate to buy the same style just to be told she will be required to buy a different style for college in less than a year. Do most college programs require a specific shoe or style? (I saw something on CC that a school is now requiring all girls to have LaDucas). My D would prefer 3" shoes but the only split sole model I can find besides LaDucas (not ready to spend the money) are Stephanie's which are not leather upper.</p>
<p>I do not know of any schools that require women to purchase La Ducas or any other specific brand of dance shoe.</p>
<p>Suggest 2.5 or 3 inch heels.</p>

<p>My daughter is a senior and bought her first pairs of La Ducas. As a MT major, not a Dance major, it is less important to have any pair but one that is comfortable for you. At La Ducas they suggested as a MT not Dance person a 2.5" heel is fine so that’s my 2 cents!</p>
