Antonio Pacelli Shoes

Hullachan Pro Shoes
Hullanchan pro shoes should not be fitted too small as they will not overstretch, and as Hullachan use a special method of pre-stretching to there leather which gives a 10% stretch latitude, if you buy too tight a fit then the shoes may split, and this will not be classed as a fault to the shoe. We recommend that you purchase the correct outdoor shoe size on this type of shoe. Please bear in mind that we must follow the manufacturers guarantee of 2 weeks from date of purchase .Shoes will be returned to manufacturer for assessment of fault and any out of warranty repairs will be charged to the customer.

  • Concorde Tip - The Concorde tip has a unique sound on any dance floor and is virtually unbreakable.
  • Leinster Heel - The Leinster Heel 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.
