Ballet Slipper

This was my first pair of ballet shoes every, and I loved the way that they fit. The bunching in the back actually gave the shoe more room. Some say to order down a size because they are cut small, but for me they were cut just like my normal shoe size. I gave them this rating because overall I liked the shoe. I would recommend this product to anyone taking dance classes.

Not as nice as the ones I bought 3 years ago

I have a pair of these slippers from January 2019. They fit perfectly until I foolishly put them into the washing machine recently. I repurchased a pair and went up a size with the plan to purposely shrink them in the wash. This worked pretty well, but for some reason the stitching in the heel is not as nice as on my previous pair, there's an unsightly bulge of fabric that sticks out from the heel. I was hoping this would improve with washing but it did not. The shoes are very comfortable, I just don't like the way they look. My first pair were better looking
