EMBED PBrush.
All shoes are constructed over a wood or composite form called a last. At Capulet we have developed a Fit-Form System. The system is composed of 12 carefully crafted shoe form, each of which are engineered to provide a unique fit and size profile optimised for each dancer activity, level, and foot characteristics. For the first time, this set of anatomically correct forms provides a fit system that is perfect for any foot.
Fitting Tips
In Store
Rule of thumb for shoes: if they hurt in the store, don’t buy them
Your left and right foot may differ by as much as a full size. Measure both and fit the larger foot. Give your feet time to adjust to the new shoes.
The mid-foot - The area under your arch and over the instep – should fit snug and not tight.
Pre Store
Women’s feet may become a half size larger or more during and after p-m.
Specific shoes are designed to enhance performance for specific foot.
Feet swell during the day; try on shoes later in the day when your feet are largest.
Bring your old Pointe shoes to the store – tread areas and stress wear will help guide you to the next selection.
