Question: I have freed Pointe shoes, and i read somewhere that wetting them increases the box strength!. !?
And i want to make sure i do not ruin them because i have a long foot and wide feet and my second toe is smaller then my first toe"big toe" and very hard to get shoes to fit my feet and i wanna make them last as long as possible without ruining them Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
What exactly do you have!? A Freed Classic or Studio!? I use Classics, and if i ever wet the box, it would get mushy and hard to dance on!. My feet are like yours bigger 2nd toe than first toe, I like my Classics just fine, but they DO tend to wear out quickly, just put ''jet glue'' on it whenever it feels mushy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I find with my wide feet that freed pointes are useless!. I have now moved over to bloch and they are excellent!. Use glue till these ones wear out then try bloch!. I have high instep and high bridge with width and strength and bloch have lasted 6-9 months with 2-4 hours every couple of days!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
