Review on 🩰 Capezio 176 Contempora Women's Pointe Shoe by Gonzalo Marshall

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best pointe shoes I've tried

I have a hard time adjusting my foot. I have a high arch, feet are fairly wide and tapered (big toe is longer). I've tried a few shoes from different manufacturers. I finally stumbled across the Capezio and tried the Tendu II. While the width was excellent, the shoes were too wide for my toes so they tended to slide down the box requiring me to use custom shims to fix this issue. I was advised to try the Capezio Contempora and it's the best shoe I've tried for my feet and has greatly reduced the need for extra cushioning. Now all I need is an Oouch Pouch Pro and a thin gel pad for the tip of my big toe. I love it and will continue to use it.

Pros
  • U-neck
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
