Women, you can indulge in Argentina Tango footwear if you are so inclined. Look for black suede Tango shoes, red Tango shoes, shoes made in Argentina or Urrguay, shoes with a 1940s heel, stilettos from Argentina or shoes from Buenos Aires made just for walking backward! Some think that the more a woman spends on her Tango shoes, the more serious dancer she is…silly! But some Tango shoes may be hard to resist, and watch out, they cost a bunch. Arika Nerguiz makes some gorgeous Tango shoes. The smooth soles are specially designed to pivot easily, and the suede feels like butter around your feet. Straps keep them falling off your feet, which is classic. There really is a sort of cult built up around Tango shoes, because they are so gorgeous. Tango shoes imported from Argentina have waiting lists, and designers like Manono Blahnik and Comme il Faut make Tango shoes. The basic elements of Tango shoes are:
- stiletto heels
- center strap down the foot
- suede, possibly
- red, possibly
Some designers from Buenos Aires to keep in mind when shopping for Tango shoes are: Neo Tango and Flabellas. Happy shopping, and Happy Dancing!
