Pointe shoe is exactly as described.

Every dancer breaks her/his own shoes to their own preferences, making it difficult to tell someone else what to expect. Capezio is a decent brand and this is a decent practice shoe. You need your own toe pads and silks. Again, as dancers have their own preferences you need to choose your own anyway.

Very low heel

I love the the tapered box and deep V throat and the (very) shallow heel looks absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately it’s described as a “full heel” but does not stay on my heel when rolling through to pointe (or even demi), and the cotton drawstring (as opposed to elastic in most shoes) wasn’t adequate for adjusting. I feel like this runs pretty wide, as my feet were sinking in anything beyond a normal width, and the shank (#2) is a medium strength but I found it to be very firm.I’m a size 8 in street shoes with Egyptian toes (and slightly narrow feet) and a 5.5 fit me best, even with toe pads. I may have been able to go down to a 5 but realized these were not going to work for my feet. They’re beautiful but I feel like you need a substantial heel width to to be able to hold on to these because they are cur so low. If you prefer a 3/4 shank and plan to cut them the heel issue would probably be even worse.

Capezio Pointé Shoe

I usually wear US 9, I bought 8.5 and runs larger than I thought. Quality is good, it's comfortable but now I can't use because it's too big. check your capezio size before buying it.

Fit me well, died quickly

I like these shoes a lot-- I ordered them on a whim (I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BEING PROFESSIONALLY FITTED) after my first two fittings went poorly. I did a lot of research on foot types, and these fit my feet very well. The main issue I have with them, is that Capezio doesn't offer different shank strengths. This shoe comes standard with a #2 shank, which is too weak for me. I have very strong feet and high arches, and the first time I practiced in these I could already tell that the shoes would die after only a practice or two.I had to jet glue the heck out of them immediately, or they would have lasted 2 classes. After I jet glued them, they lasted me about 2 months before I had to break down and buy another pair. I ended up with a different brand/model this time.My other main concern is that the box died quickly. It felt like my big toes were digging a hole in the box, which was uncomfortable. After 5-6 classes, I no longer trusted my left shoe.
