Grishkos are great pointe shoes, however, but they might not be right for you feet - go to a store and have yourself fitted for the right brand of pointe shoes if it's your first time.

The best way is do a little bit each day as they are very tough, so be patient as it may take afew weeks to be fully broken in. Good luck.
