These pointe shoe covers were lovely when I first got them. They kept my pointe shoes clean while using them. After a performance practice, the cover ripped horribly and I couldn't use them anymore. These covers are great to keep your shoes clean during practice before a performance, but they had no durability.

Robin06/27/2018GOOD FOR PRACTICE ON SLIPPERY FLOORS
I bought these to wear over my pointe shoes so I can practice on an otherwise slippery wooden floor on my own outside of class (I can't use resin as I am practicing in a private studio at a fitness center shared for other purposes). They fit nicely over both my Grishko Novas and Russian Pointe Rubins, but the heel comes off after a while. To remedy this situation, I safety pin the heel of the covers to the heel of my pointe shoes with small safety pins, and this works very well to keep them on while dancing. They serve the purpose I intended them for very well and I am satisfied after finding a solution to the heel issue. The tip of the cover stays in place very well while I turn and move in my pointe shoes, though any tighter and they would be too small.

When I got this in the mail i was very excited to try them out. they are great if you have Marley floors at your studio but have hard wood floors in your house because it makes it feel like you are dancing on Marley. I have not tried them out in the studio but the only problem i have is they are a bight pink color that doesn't really match my Russian pointe shoes. If they are going to be a weird color pink, i wish they would come in different colors too.

Anna205/19/2013DOES NOT STAY ON, REALLY WEIRD COLOR
The idea was good, but it doesn't stay on well at all and the color is bordering on neon pink. The suede on the bottom feels weird against the floor--I ended up taking them off just because of this. It also gets holes in it fairly quickly.

TNDancer102/11/2013GOOD BUT DOESN'T LAST
I loved these covers when I first got them. They kept my shoes looking clean and brand new while breaking them in and looked great when I performed onstage. After a few months though the seams ripped beyond repair and I couldn't use them anymore. These covers are great to keep your shoes clean for a performance, but the durability could be better
I ordered these in November and have not yet received them--I have received 9 notices from Discount Dance Supply stating they are on backorder and will be sent in 2-4 weeks, but they never get here! They did not charge my card for them, stating they will when they are actually shipped. I'd much rather receive the covers than the delay emails. Sounds like a manufacturer problem.

That's a wonderful product idea, but didn't really work for me. Way to small and I also had to add elastics so it wouldn't get off my hells. The platform keeps getting out of its place and they rip on in less than a week...

Meaghan08/06/2010I LIKE THEM
I got these for when I'm practicing in my room so my new shoes won't get dirty. Warning: these are really pink. They look alot pinker than in the picture.
I really like them because they are very stretchy.
I got the size 7, I am a street size 6, and my Grishko Miracles were sized 4xxxx and my Bloch Europeans were size 4xx.

Katy03/20/2009 Utah,COOL!
These are pretty cool, I got them today and tried them on with my pointe shoes and they actually looked really cool. They even stretched over my really wide platform, I was surprised. I can't wait to wear them for real! Worth the 4 bucks.
