Women should start 2 - 2.5 sizes smaller than their regular street shoe size. Pointe shoes should be an exact fit to ensure the shoes are properly supportive of your foot and ankle. Your toes should feel flat and touching the end the of shoes when in a plie at the barre. Enpointe, your foot should feel supported in the box of the shoe with limited sliding. The wings of the shoe should cover and support the toe joints, and the shank should not twist on the foot. The shoe will mold to your foot with wear.
Women should go an additional half size smaller and consider one size narrower if they intend wear the pointe shoes without padding.
For style Miracle, women should start 1.5 - 2 sizes smaller than their regular street shoe size.

I first started point with the Grishko 2007 medium shank and I continued to dance in them, but the pro flex 2007 allows me to get over onto my toe box properly and still provide me proper support. I have a very tapered foot so most Pointe shoes do not fit properly at all. However, these Grishko's feel like they were custom made for my feet!!! Thank you Grishko for making the Cinderella shoe of point shoes for tapered feet!!!
