At present, it is the biggest Russian manufacturer of ballet shoes and dancewear and one of the world leaders in the field. Its products won universal recognition and its owners, Mr. Nikolai Grishko, Mrs. Tamara Grishko and Ms. Irina Grishko, all are well-known for their charity work.

Grishko pointe shoes are designed and made by hand to give the dancer ultimate support and placement, which is why several styles are offered for fit perfection

The style you require is determined by the shape of the your foot, particularly the length of your toes, the strength of the foot and most importantly the manner in which the teacher instructs you to go en pointe.

Superb balance;

Easy transition from demi-pointe to pointe & back
Refined line of foot and arch;
Unique durability;
Lack of noise and
With proper fitting protection from dancer's occupational diseases and damage.
