WENDYWUBallet Dance Shoes Colorful Blue Red White Black Pink Pointe Shoes with Toe Pads

Be careful, they ask for american shoe size, but I've never purchased a pair of toe shoes that weren't 2 sizes smaller. Sure enough when I received them, they were to big. Company asked me to give them my foot size in centimeters, which I did & I told them all of this. I bet they'll be 2 sizes smaller when I get them. Out side of that they seem great. They also make all kinds of colors, including requests! This is great if you're as sick of pale pink as I am.

They are beautiful but slightly big but definitely good quality.

I purchased these from another website and the sizing is incredibly off. They're at least 2 sizes larger than similar shoes and much, much wider. These are probably going to be great for men who are going on pointe but the sizing needs to be much clearer. If you don't know your foot size in cm, you're in for disappointment.I added pictures. The hot pink ones are these shoes, the light pink shoes are Leo's Inspiration in 10C, which is also a 43. The profile of this shoe is incredibly low by comparison and you can see where the wing ends in this shoe. Unfortunately I tightened the drawstrings too much so it's hard to see how much I can pinch but it's a lot! This model runs large!

please note that this is a review based on little to no experience with professional pointe shoe fitting. I am going off of how they feel on my feet alone. I purchased these because I want to work towards getting back into ballet again after years of not practicing, which is a long story, but my love of ballet has stayed through thick and thin, literally and metaphorically. I thought that it would be fun to get a general idea of how pointe shoes fit on me now vs the first time I practiced (self taught at the time) and I am glad I purchased these first. they also looked very pretty on the listing, and when I received them, I also received some nice, natural feeling toe pads and a cute pink satin bag to carry them in. they really are very pretty for the price, and feet decently sturdy, but I certainly think the toe box needs more space and customization to accommodate my tailors bunions, one which is more pronounced on my left foot. I am reading other reviews from more experienced dancers here, and I agree that these do not feel like the type of pointe shoes you want to practice long hours in, they are more for photo shoots and shorter sessions. also as I work towards reaching my health and fitness goals, I did notice that the ribbons are kind of short for my larger calves, which I know will change, but even so it would be nice if the company could have thrown in an extra pair of ribbons or offered the option of longer ribbons on the shoe, which I know may not be needed by many dancers but still it would be nice to have that option. overall these are very nice, I love the look of them, but if you have unique features to your feet such as mine it is definitely best to have a professional fitter take a look at them and give you some advice, which I plan to do.
