This handmade Russian shoe suits a range of dancers - from beginner to advanced. The 2007 combines the best features of each Grishko pointe shoe. It features a ¾ shank (available in three strengths) which is designed to alleviate pressure on the first metatarsal, and a supportive u-shaped vamp. Flexible, lightweight and quiet, the Grishko 2007 is also very flattering on the foot.
