Maribell Black

Practice, Social & Performance worthy

The Maribell shoe has been a part of my repertoire since 2021! From dancing it’s 1st debut without break-in for 7 -8 hours straight (and as ‘comfy as could be’ till the last moment)...through zillions of hours in classes, worn in performances and hundreds of Socials - these little numbers stand up to the hard labor! Did I also mention a huge bonus is their breathable design? Video attached from demo at Parx Casino (Aug 2026).

Meh. Not a fan of these.

The shoes deliver the comfort and beautiful style typical of Yami, which I truly love, but their design lacks the structural support to securely fit the foot. The “open shoe” style requires tying the two sides together around the foot, and even then, the flaps may not stay firmly in place. I also had to create multiple secure knots at the tips of the laces to prevent them from pulling wide at the toe area.

I like that it’s comfortable even with a 3 inch heel. I don’t wear 3-inch heels but this shoe brand made it very easy for me to wear this heel height.
