Pointe Shoes digging in at heel
by: Anonymous

Hello,

I have been doing pointe for several years and dance almost everyday. I dance en pointe at least two hours a week. I. found a pair pointe shoes that fitted my feet nicely and have been wearing them for a while but they break in way too easily, so I went on the search for a stronger pair. I went and got some fitted and in the shop my chosen shoes felt really nice and not tight at all. When I got home I. sewed on ribbons then put them on to break them in and they were suddenly super tight at my heels. Walking in them was really painful.
They were a lovely fit in the shop, and as you know pointe shoes are expensive so I was careful when I picked. Any idea why they are suddenly digging in so much?

THANK YOU!
