Description

Bleyer Hot Shot shoes are stunning three-tone shoes, using red, white and black materials.  On the standard shoe, you can opt for high-quality matt leather or shiny synthetic patent leather alternative. Ladies and gents alike love to wear Hot Shots lace-ups. Bleyer produces these shoes on a unisex last so they are an average width shoe.

Available with a red toe and heel section as standard, linked by white panels on either side of a black saddle section as standard, these shoes can also be customised with almost any colour options. Just take a look at the images in the product gallery to see several examples.

Bleyer Cell Rubber soles in black are the standard sole for this shoe, but you can pick an alternative. Cell Rubber is a harder-wearing option that allows the shoes to be worn outdoors as well as indoors. It’s also easy to wipe down if they do get mucky! You can pick an alternative sole option if you prefer, too. EVA, suede or the Spin Spot sole are all available via the custom sole selector.

Do You Need Insoles?

There is some built-in heel padding on the inner, but Bleyer does recommend fitting a Bleyer Leather Insole (code 4423) with these shoes. Some dancers prefer to ‘feel the floor’, but insoles will definitely soften the impact on your joints whilst dancing! Make sure to select “Select This Option if You’re Making a Custom Order” for the Bleyer size option to access the custom sole selector.

Bleyer Hot Shot is available as standard in Bleyer size 39 to 47 (covering UK5 to 11).

All returns must be sent back to us within 28 days of the goods being delivered. Payment for return postage is your responsibility. You are responsible for the item until it is received at our return address, to protect yourself against goods being mislaid during the return delivery we recommend that you used a tracked and signed service with sufficient insurance. When you request to exchange a product, once we have received your item we send out the replacement items at our own expense, to the original delivery destination.

Nov-Jan Holiday Period Returns For Standard Items:

Exclusions for Custom Orders:

All items ordered with customizations are produced on the strength of your order, using the exact specification supplied. Therefore, custom Order items cannot be cancelled, amended or returned, so it is essential that you are satisfied that all details such as size, colour, finish and sole selection are correct when placing your order. Custom Orders are normally subject to an additional charge and a delay of 4-8 weeks for production.

How They Fit...

Order At Least One Size Larger Than Standard Euro Sizes

Bleyer shoes are marked with European sizes but they always fit at least one size smaller than typical European sizes. So, for example, if you normally wear a European 38 you would probably want a Bleyer 39. This works for most people but a very small proportion of people require 2 sizes smaller than standard European. (Nobody ever requires their standard Euro size.)

International Shoe Size Conversions

These shoes are produced with whole Bleyer sizes, but we retail to purchasers across the globe so we have used our experience to translate the Bleyer sizes to different international sizing systems. This is by no means perfect and we welcome all feedback to improve our information. There are no Bleyer half sizes, in the translation approximations that means that there are half sizes in some, but not all, other international sizing systems.

This is simply as a result of the translations, so if your feet are a half size that is not listed, we would normally suggest that you select the next half size up. If you’re still not sure which size to select please call or email for advice. Although we are confident that these translations work for most people, this information is not a guarantee and should be used as a guide only.

Cell Rubber Sole

The Hep Cat (BS7500), Balboa (BS7500), Hotshots (BS8365/BS8366), Luigi (BS8375/BS8376) and Saddle (BS7139) are produced with the Cell Rubber Sole are available from size 38 and up. As an alternative for sizes where the Cell Rubber sole is not available, the EVA sole with a heel is normally used. If your sole choice is critical then please check with us before placing your order.

The Cell Rubber Sole

The material used is a high-tech innovation that gives you the ideal combination of a light yet hardwearing soles for dancing. The look and feel of this sole type is not what you would expect from rubber, to look and touch it seems like hard plastic. Dancing on this sole offers slightly more grip and a more sure-footed feel than the other Bleyer composite soles (except the non-slip sole) or leather soles. This sole will tolerate being worn outdoors and can be wiped down ready for dancing. These soles are Vegan friendly.

EVA Sole with Heel (when Cell Rubber option is unavailable)

The EVA Sole with heel is a popular sole for swing dancers. Of all the Bleyer synthetic soles, the white sole offers the most freedom of movement for sliding, swivelling and gliding easily across the floor, offering dancers a similar feel to suede. The addition of the heel makes the shoe feel more like a street shoe rather than the flat sole options. These soles are also Vegan friendly.

... Or Pick a Different Sole

***Sadly custom soles are no longer available, the content below is just for archive reference***  

Whilst most people love the standard sole with this shoe, some people have a particular favourite Bleyer sole. It’s possible to make a custom order, adding your favourite sole to the shoe style of your choice. Here is the list of sole types that could be available:

  • Cell Rubber Sole, all black
  • Spin Spot Sole, either all black or all white
  • EVA Sole, either flat or with a small heel, and with either a black or white visible edge
  • Suede sole, either flat or with a small heel, and with either a black or white visible edge

Purchase options will be shown on this listing. Please note that custom orders are subject of a delay of 4-8 weeks, there is an additional charge and we cannot accept cancellations, amendments or returns once the order is placed. If you are unsure of your Bleyer size, please order a standard order to test for size and then return it in line with our returns policy before proceeding with your custom order.

Custom Uppers

***Sadly custom uppers are no longer available, the content below is just for archive reference***  

Don’t fancy the standard colour or finish option? If you’re looking for a unique colour combination, we can help! You can make a special order with any colour combinations. Different material options are available too… so, for example, most colours are available in genuine matt leather as well as matt or patent finish synthetic leather alternatives, which makes some styles a vegan-friendly choice.

Custom orders are one-off productions so they take a little longer and there is a surcharge, get in touch to find out more!

As each custom order is produced to your specific requirements there are special terms that you need to agree before we proceed. 

  1. Each customisation carries an additional fee, the order must be paid in full prior to production commencing 
  2. There can be no cancellations, order amendments or refunds once the order has been placed. (If you are uncertain of your Bleyer you can order a standard product to test for size, return it for refund in line with our returns policy and then proceed with the custom order).
  3. There will be a delay for production, normally 4-8 weeks prior to dispatch, but this is for guidance, not a guarantee. If you have a deadline then please contact us to discuss whether it is achievable.

Please note that, generally, patent synthetic material is firmer and holds its shape better than matt leather. Within the range of matt leather colours, the black matt leather material tends to be firmer than the matt leathers used for other colour options, which are softer. This can mean that non-black leathers can feel very slightly roomier by comparison.
