- Pointe shoes can be trendy, but it is important that the shoes are the right fit for your feet, not just the popular shoe. Pointe shoe needs to support/protect your feet, when dancing on toes. Amy first danced in Capezio Contempora pointe shoes. During Amy’s career with the Milwaukee ballet, she ordered a new pair of the trending pointe shoes.
- She wore the new shoes for six months to a year. The vamp length on her new pair of pointe shoes was not the right fit for her, resulting in her feet looking “sickled.” After the difficult switch, Amy returned to the Capezio Contempora pointe shoes. Amy learned the importance of being properly, professionally fitted, and wearing the right shoes for you!
