Does anyone have grishkos pointe shoes?

Question

i've always worn sansha's, but i got fitted for a pair of grishkos last week. i've been trying to break them in, and just wondering, do they tend to stretch out?

this is my first pair of grishkos, but my 5th pair of pointe shoes altogether, if that helps. :D

Answer 1

I have a pair as well.  I bought mine with a hard shank because my foot overarches a lot.  The way my foot is makes the shoe stretch in the back a little bit, but it wasn't a lot.  Overall it wasn't much of a difference from when I first bought the shoes.

Answer 2

I break in my pointe shoes by burning it to make it softer. There are videos on YouTube that tell you how to break in pointe shoes.
