Pointe Shoe Tips: Pointe Shoe Envy

Hoping that the pointe shoes (or padding, or ribbon/elastic combo....) that work and look amazing on your dance bestie’s feet are going to work for you? 👯‍♀️

Sorry, girlie. That hardly ever happens. 😢

Against all odds, I fit two dancers with identical shoe and toe pad combinations last week. Twins. Same shaped foot, same shaped heel, same left foot a half size bigger than the right. One twin had feet a half size larger than her sister, but otherwise exactly the same. 👯‍♀️

For everyone else in the world, we’ll spend lots of time, perhaps across several shoe styles over the the years, to tweek and customize the options that work best for your feet. ⏰ Sometimes, we even have to customize the padding options for your individual feet!! 😳

Sure, we can try the pointe shoes that your friend is wearing. But, for best results, don’t get your heart set on it being the best option for you. ❤️❤️❤️Even these twins chose two different pointe shoe styles for their very first pair of pointe shoes!
