Pulse Dance Shoes Flow 2 Black Sneaker Review

Dance-specific footwear needs to handle pivots and turns that regular sneakers aren't built for, so I looked into Pulse Dance Shoes' Women's Flow 2 Black low-top dance sneaker.

What You Get

The Flow 2 is priced at $140 and currently available as a pre-order. It uses a premium microfiber upper under Pulse's AIRDANCE+® branding, combining tumbled and smooth finishes, paired with a SPYNFLEX® composite polyurethane sole that includes dedicated pivot zones and flex grooves specifically for turning movements.

How It Holds Up

The removable GROOVECLOUD® dual-density memory-foam insole is a detail that matters for dancers doing repeated impact over long sessions, and the 10mm heel-to-toe drop keeps the shoe's platform low and stable rather than elevated like a running shoe. At 10.3oz for a women's US10, it stays lightweight enough not to slow footwork down. Pulse's site-wide rating sits at 4.78/5 across 342 verified reviews.
