Dance Laines currently sells only GRISHKO shoes, which are made in Russia.

GRISHKO undertook five years of medical research into how and why dancers' feet get injured then designed their Pointe shoe.

This shoe is available in three different shapes, 5 different shank strengths, and 5 different widths, making a fitting possible in almost all cases.

Pointe Shoes are from £32.00      Demi-Pointe Shoes are from £24.00

PLEASE NOTE shoes will be sent by post only if previously fitted

The specially designed extra light model with a suede machine-stitched sole provides an easy transition from the demi-pointe to the pointe and back. The shoe is distinguished by its perfect balance and placement, outstanding durability, lack of noise and perfect comfort.

DEMI POINTE/SOFT BLOCKS/EXAM 
The Demi Pointe/soft blocks/Exam shoes are made specially for the beginners. These are strongly recommended for use in preparation for Pointe work to strengthen the foot and ankles and get the foot used to working in the confined space of a Pointe shoe. It will make the fitting of actual pointe shoes easier. It is highly recommended that dancers use these shoes for 6 months before going onto pointe. They are of course also used in some exams. These shoes have a V-shaped medium vamp, and 1/2 box which provide no pressure on the forefoot. The medium toe platform provides perfect balance and placement. The shoe is all handmade and fits standard feet. It is made of pale salmon satin with a glued smooth leather sole.
