These shoes were good for a while, but as someone with flexible ankles and feet the shank wasn't enough. I would heavily jet glue them heavily, but they would still die very quickly. As they they died the box would tend to widen out and create too much space and make my feet look almost very fat. They were also very loud in comparison to my other shoes. However, I could still dance and perform in them, not too slippery.

My daughter’s favorite pointe shoes.

These are my favorite shoes. I feel like I am floating the whole time, and it isn't a struggle to get over the box. Great shoes for dancers who are spending a lot of time on pointe.

So I have been purchasing my daughters pointe shoes at a dance store outside of this one and have not been happy
After calling and talking to a representative from DanceSupplies and placing my order I was pleasantly surprised all the way around.
I found them to be attentive, responsive, and kind!
I have ordered other items since my order of point shoes and I am impressed by the fact that customer service is as good as the first time I called. This is the customer service that I’ve been looking for throughout my daughters 12 years of dancing, and even though we are not in the I will continue to order from you all as my daughter continues dancing
thank you

they last a bit longer than the 2.5s so I use them for rehersals and longer pointe classes!
