Aris Allen is known for making vintage style swing dance shoes and reproduction models that are more authentic equipment for dancing swing than ordinary ballroom shoes are. Their philosophy being that your dancing will look more authentic if you wear the same style of shoes the inventors of the dance were wearing. And if you can't do that then you'd better be in something comfortable because swing dancing is like running track :) Now you can dance in sneakers without the knee-injuring potential that spinning on rubber soles carries. Because the shoelaces are fairly high on the vamp these don't always work with wide feet.

Beware
Cute, but my ankles were killing me before I could even start dancing. No support of any kind in these shoes. I had to take them off and put real dance shoes on.
