For THE WHIP we have again succeeded in manufacturing a traditional full leather dance shoe of highest class. To this end we have retrieved a Portuguese shoemaker mastering the old craft of the “Longwing Brogue”, custom tailoring this elegant Derby style shoe for us, using fine Italian leather. A European shoe indeed!
We have refined a roughened leather sole with a rubber layer in the heel, and cushioned the removable footbed softly in order to combine well-tried floor performance with high impact absorption.
These shoes are adorned with the SAINT SAVOY eyelet, and come with a shoe bag and extra shoelaces in a contrasting colour for added variety.
Heel height: 2 cm
Sole: Roughened leather sole, rubber layer in the heel
Footbed: Removable padded leather insole
Upper: Fine oxhide
Special features: SAINT SAVOY eyelet, extra pair of shoelaces in a contrasting colour, shoe bag

How to Care for Your Dance Shoes:
The Ten Commandments for Spiffy and Comfy Shoes
Dance shoes undergo an array of very specific stresses. We see the signs of wear on our shoes as a sign of our love for dancing. However, by following a few simple tips for care, we can easily extend the life of our favourite shoes:- Care for your feet! A well-tended foot has short nails and soft skin free of callouses that may cause uncomfortable pressure.
- Should I waterproof my dance shoes?
- Always fully open your shoes before slipping into them, and use a shoehorn to help maintain their form.
- At Saint Savoy, we use high quality leather for the inside, too. If this lining should cause marks, we recommend a dash of hairspray. It really is surprising how well a thin layer sprayed into the interior of your shoe will makes this problem disappear.
- If your dance shoes are dusty or dirty after a long night out, rub them with a soft, moist cloth. Always remember to clean your shoes before applying polish.
- It'’s easy to make sure your Saint Savoy shoes keep on shining: try spit and a soft leather brush, or using an old nylon stocking to polish them. It works great, really!
- Our shoes are made of fine calf leather. It is important to use high-quality shoe polish to maintain the pliability of leather and seams. We recommend using products containing lanolin. We also advise that you use colourless care products – your clothing and your dance partner will thank you!
- Rub leather-covered heels and the shoe’s frame well with polish, too.
- Dirt can be washed off Saint Savoy’s special Sender Sole using a mild soap solution and a soft cloth.
- Put a shoetree or crumpled newspaper in your shoes after wearing them. This will smooth wrinkles from walking, as well as absorb moisture.
Size Guide
Trying On at Home
Please use a shoe horn and open the laces/straps all the way before trying our shoes; this will prevent unnecessary damage to the shoe. If the shoe is a bit too wide or too big, but a smaller size would be too tight, then try slipping in an extra insole. Or – if that proves to be too much – then try using a toe or heel pad. The insole gives your foot more hold, and thus optimizes the fit.TIP #1: MEASURE AT A TIME THAT FITS
Feet tend to swell in different circumstances and at different times of the day. We suggest you measure your feet during the midday or late afternoon after you have been on your feet for some time. However, also avoid trying on shoes when your feet are already over-tired and exhausted.TIP #2: WEAR SOCKS WHEN MEASURING
Wear the type of socks that you will likely be wearing with your new shoes, as the thickness of the socks may affect your measurements.TIP #3: STAND STRAIGHT AND BALANCED
When you do the measuring be sure both feet are on the ground and you’re balanced and straight to get the proper foot placement.TIP #4: GET SOMEONE TO HELP YOU
You need to have a friend help you take the measurements because if you were to try to take your measurements yourself, your sizing would be affected when you bend down to mark your length and width. Make sure your friend takes your measurements looking straight down at the Shoe Fit Guide. Even viewing it at a slight angle may affect the outcome.TIP #5: GIVE YOURSELF A BIT OF ROOM
If your measurement is on a length line, we recommend you go to the next half-size longer in order to give your toes a bit of room.TIP #6: ONE FOOT LARGER IS COMMON
Almost everyone has one foot larger than the other. The key is to determine your size from the measurement of the larger of your two feet. And obviously, be sure to measure both feet.Foot size in cm | Shoe size EU | Shoe size UK | Shoe size US |

Elara –
I got these as a Christmas present for my husband. They’re the quality we’ve come to expect from Saint Savoy and the lacquer-like finish on them is really beautiful!
Mike Strand –
These Whips (Mulled Wine) are my most recent Saint Savoy acquisitions. Great style for Latin as well as swing, and also for other dress-up occasions. I wear them often, and the fit is getting better as they get broken in, with storage using wooden inserts to help spread the leather.
Mikayla –
These shoes are absolutely incredible. I fell in love the second I laid my eyes on them. The color is absolutely stunning and the craftsmanship is undeniable. They are so well crafted and beautiful. I will also say that they are quite comfortable and the leather is such high quality. I absolutely love these shoes and would recommend them to anyone and everyone. For dancers or even just people that just love a good pair of gorgeous leather shoes.

First off, the shipping was insanely fast. I can’t guarantee it would be as fast for other people, but I live in the U.S. and these came to me in 3 days!!! I instantly tried them on at home and they were amazing, looked exactly like the picture, and worked perfectly on my hardwood floors. I have been using them to dance on various surfaces that have been too sticky for all other shoes that I have used, and they have been perfect. They don’t stick, and they’re not too slippery. They’re very comfortable, too. This specific shoe is perfect for someone who likes to change roles leading and following.
