Difference between professional and semi-professional shoes
The primary difference between semi-professional and professional flamenco shoes lies in the sole construction and material quality: professional shoes have a double, higher-quality sole that is hand-stitched, while semi-professional shoes have a glued-on-sole.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
- Sole: Have a single, glued-on sole, which is less durable and produces a less resonant sound.
- Material Quality: Made with good quality leather, but not as high as professional shoes, suitable for practice and learning.
- Tapping Sound: May have a less perfect tapping sound during the zapateado.
- Construction: Soles are glued on, making them less durable than professional shoes.
- Sole: Feature a double sole, often reinforced with stitching for durability and a more resonant sound.
- Material Quality: Made with higher quality leather and materials, resulting in a better fit and overall performance.
- Tapping Sound: Produce a clear, crisp tapping sound during the zapateado.
- Construction: Hand-stitched soles for greater durability and a more professional sound.
- Nails: Often have nails hammered into the toe and heel to enhance the tapping sound.
