What is the Bloch S0313L Jason Samuels Smith Limited Edition tap shoe?

The Bloch S0313L is a premium, limited-edition ladies tap shoe designed in collaboration with legendary tap dancer and choreographer Jason Samuels Smith. This special version features vibrant limited-edition colors (such as emerald smooth leather), full build-up out of the box, triple stacked heel, double stacked hard leather outsole, high-performance steel resonance plate for exceptional sound depth and pitch, secure metal bonding to prevent loose screws, Kashmir and canvas lining for comfort, and a shorter break-in time. It's built for professional-level performance, superior resonance, and ultimate comfort.

Is this the limited edition version, and what makes it different?

Yes, this is a limited-edition release of the iconic Jason Samuels Smith tap shoe (S0313L). It features exclusive colorways like emerald smooth leather, while maintaining the same professional specs as the standard model: triple stacked heel, full build-up, steel resonance plate, and secure tap bonding. Limited editions are produced in small quantities and are final sale with no returns or exchanges due to their rarity - perfect for collectors and serious tappers seeking unique style and sound.

What size should I order for the Bloch S0313L tap shoes?

These shoes run small. We recommend ordering 1 to 1.5 sizes up from your normal street shoe size (e.g., street size 7 → order 8–8.5). For tweens or youth transitioning to adult sizes, go up 1.5–2 sizes. Always try on carpet to avoid scratching the taps (taps are non-returnable if damaged). Refer to Bloch's official size chart for precise measurements based on foot length and width.

What taps are included, and how is the sound quality?

The Bloch S0313L comes with full build-up taps installed (triple stacked heel and double stacked forefoot for maximum resonance). The high-performance steel resonance plate delivers deep, rich tone and exceptional pitch clarity—often described as 'surreal sound' by Jason Samuels Smith himself. The secure metal bonding ensures taps stay tight without loosening during intense practice or performance.

What materials are used in these tap shoes?

The shoes feature luxurious soft grain leather (or smooth leather in limited editions like emerald), Kashmir lining for comfort, canvas accents, and a shorter break-in period. The outsole is hard leather with stacked heels/forefoot, and the resonance plate is high-grade steel. All materials prioritize durability, comfort, and superior sound production.

Are these tap shoes returnable or exchangeable?

Due to the limited-edition nature and hygiene/safety concerns (taps can scratch easily), these shoes are final sale with no returns or exchanges. Please review sizing guidance carefully and try on carpet only to protect the taps. Contact us before purchase if you have fit questions.

How do I care for my Bloch Jason Samuels Smith tap shoes?

Wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid moisture or harsh cleaners on the leather. For the taps, use a tap brush or cloth to clean after use. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Professional tap maintenance (e.g., tightening screws) may be needed over time.

Why choose the Jason Samuels Smith tap shoes from Bloch?

Designed, tested, and approved by tap icon Jason Samuels Smith, these shoes offer unmatched sound quality, comfort, and build quality. The full build-up, triple stacked heel, and secure resonance plate provide professional-grade performance right out of the box—no extra setup required. They're a favorite among pros and serious students for their durability and 'surreal' tone.
