Schedule your next complimentary fittings
Your’re perfect pair of pointe shoes are as unique as your fingerprint!
To ensure the perfect fit our fittings are by appointment only. Fittings are free of charge with the sale of pointe shoes. We do not offer fittings outside the sale of pointe shoes. We recommend getting a professional fitting for at least your first 4 or 5 pairs or until you are 100% happy with your model and size.

Safety check
Before you step into your pointe shoes, let’s make sure you’re good to go. A quick check-in with your teacher or health pro will tell us you’re ready to rise (literally). Once you’re cleared, the magic begins!

You’ve found your perfect shoes – now it’s time to sew on the ribbons and start dancing! This is where your pointe journey truly begins.

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR A FITTING?
HOW DO I PREPARE FOR A FITTING?
Please wear convertible ballet tights or socks. When we fit pointe shoes we want to fit them in whatever you will actually wear them with to get the perfect fit.
Please bring any old pointes you have, your toe pads and any other accessories you use. It is important that we fit you in the most accurate way possible.
For first time fittings please talk to your teacher in advance and find out which toepads you need and whether they have any other requirements or preferences.
Try to cut your toenails before your appointment: you’d be surprised how painful it is to dance on too-long toe-nails. Ouch!

CAN I RETURN POINTE SHOES?
CAN I RETURN POINTE SHOES?
Please ensure that all pointe shoes are checked by your teacher before you sew on ribbons and elastics.
We are more than happy to re-fit and exchange pointe shoes once they are un-worn and ribbons have not been sewn on. Pointe shoes cannot be returned once ribbon and elastic has been sewn.
