Merlet Badras

The Badras from Merlet is a ballroom shoe built around a metallized strap that keeps its shape rather than stretching out over a season of wear. Its buckle and snap hybrid closure fastens quickly, so the shoe goes on and off between rounds without fighting a traditional buckle, and it sits on a 4.5 cm heel.

It suits social and competitive ballroom and Latin dancers who want a secure strap and a moderate heel height for lessons, practice parties and competition floors.
