AKA the grueling part. These shoes are very complicated, expensive, and require specialized personnel & equipment to make. But after a year of searching, we finally found an AMAZING factory who was properly equipped & up for the challenge!

We spent 3 more years prototyping various styles, ironing out the kinks, and getting the perfect fit! Winning styles went on to be tested for durability. We meticulously refined the ergonomic footbed for maximum comfort & support. (We seriously can't wait for you to try our plush & springy footbed!)

This style was designed to improve the classic clear-upper sandal by maintaining that feeling of stability, but with reinforcement straps which keep the vamp from ripping or overstretching after months of dancing. We switched out PVC for TPU, for its greater tear-strength, and resistance to discoloration & hardening over time.

We decided to develop our own platforms instead of using "open source" molds, so that we could have full control over the shape & construction. We honed in on a lightweight platform that not only supports dancers’ pointe with a comfortable slope, but also serves as the shoes' foundation of durability. The shoes were born!

We custom make many of our materials, which allows precise control over the strength, thickness, color, and effects. Finding the perfect materials for the other color-ways was a challenge, but after months of searching, we found them!

We're not chasing the fastest way to market. We're building the heels we always wished existed, and we're not done yet. We listen, test, tweak, and improve with every collection. Because building better heels isn't a finish line — it's a long, hard ride.
