Brand Profile
Dance shoes aren't just about looking good; they must offer more. At Werner Kern, we believe that an appealing design is just one part of the equation. We understand that a dancer's feet have unique demands, and our commitment goes beyond aesthetics. Our dance shoes are the result of a harmonious blend of exclusive design, top-notch craftsmanship, and impeccable attention to detail. This combination, characteristic of Werner Kern, ensures that our dance shoes not only look great but also provide outstanding comfort and durability, even under extreme conditions.
Our dance shoes are designed to complement the natural movement of your feet. Drawing from decades of experience in leather selection, shoe last design, meticulous execution, and thoughtful design, our shoes hold the key to an unparalleled dance experience. We've tested and refined our fits over the years with input from thousands of dancers in real-world conditions, ensuring exceptional comfort and performance. Ultimately, our primary goal is to bring joy to your dancing experience.
We uphold the strictest quality standards throughout our manufacturing process, from our high-end Italian design to the careful selection of hand-picked materials and the predominantly handcrafted production, right up to worldwide shipping. We prioritize sourcing components regionally, maintaining short transport routes and collaborating with local suppliers. This commitment to quality and locality is our way of paying tribute to "Made in Italy."
Our dance shoes are crafted by highly skilled professionals at our factory in Italy, involving over 240 production steps, many of which are performed by hand. Each shoe undergoes a rigorous quality inspection before it receives the coveted "Werner Kern" seal of quality.
