Tips and heels


Which combination of tip and heel should I go for?
We offer a range of different tips and heels to suit all styles and abilities. Here is a summary:

  • Leinster Tip - The Leinster tips has been around for many years and is still the preferred by dancers of most ages.
  • Concorde Tip - The Concorde tip has a unique sound on any dance floor and is virtually unbreakable.
  • C-2000 Tip - Our latest tip, the C-2000 has been designed and developed with the professional dancer in mind. Made from a high density material with a wonderful clarity of sound.
  • Capezio Tip - For show dancers only. A metal tip for dancer's in theatre productions, a light tip which offers excellent mic pick up. The Capezio is illegal in both the An Commission and Comhdhail and will lead to disqualification if worn in competition. If you require this tip, please indicate it under the special requirements section of the order form.
  • Leinster Heel - The Leinster comes as standard on all our jig shoes. It is a tapered heel, fitted with a composite heel piece to create a clean sound. Ideal for beginners or intermediates and still preferred by many more experienced dancers.
  • Concorde Heel - The Concorde heel has been designed for more experienced dancers. The slightly curved heel is made from the same material as our Concorde tip and gives a bright professional sound.
  • Bubble Heel - For Comhdhail dancers only as the bubble heel is illegal in the An Commission. If you require this heel, then please indicate it under the special requirements section of the order form.

There are several types of adjustments available, including changes to the height or heel and tip, half or full rubber soles, back-loops or longer straps.
