EzraWhen you are picking out pointe shoes, it doesn't always need to be about the brand that they are. It doesn't matter how much they cost either. As long as they are not too big (it is better for them to be too small than too big) and as long as they feel good and your toes aren't crowded, they are a "good brand"! For me, I love Russian Pointe Shoes the most-- but that is only because they fit well!
I think that capizio or bloch are the best. Bloch is more fore starters like ages 10 to maybe 14. If you get capizios for first ones they are problebly going to be uncomfortable. Bloch is more comfortable for the starting shoes.

"En pointe" refers to dancing in pointe shoes. Non-pointe ballet shoes are demi-pointe shoes, and the dancing is "en demi-pointe".
Where is the best place to buy pointe shoes?
Hi - You want to buy pointe shoes anywhere there are professional fitters. The fitters are necessary if its your first pair, and if you want to try a different brand, they're also very handy. To find a store in your area, just Google or Bing it.
How much are pointe shoes?
Pointe shoes are quite expensive. They can reach from $50 up to $130. I am a dancer/ballerina myself and mine is $115😅 But it is worth it considering the excitement you feel when you get your pointe shoes (especially your first ones). But remember, you have to get permission from your ballet teacher/coach to go on pointe as pointework is pretty dangerous for inexperienced dancers and dancers with weak ankles.
What are ballet shoes?
Ballet shoes are either slippers for practising or pointe shoes. Which, after a girl goes through pre-pointe possibly for one year, they can get pointe shoes then perform pointe! Guys do where ballet slippers but they do not go on pointe
