[quote=Anonymous]We went to Liesl's the first time. I don't think it was necessarily their fault (kids newly on pointe don't really know how the shoes are supposed to feel and can't give great feedback), but my daughter's first shoe made her lose a big toenail, which was a big pain literally and figuratively. She got a different shoe from Liesl's after that and went to several other stores just to see if they had some different options. Honestly, the best fitting she had by far was a virtual fitting with Josephine from the Pointe Shop in California. (She's an internet celebrity.) She asked the size of my daughter's current shoe, looked at her foot very briefly, and immediately suggested a different shoe that turned out to be the one she has stuck with. Supposedly they can do virtual fittings for first-timers as well (I have no idea how, and I'm not sure I'd recommend it), but if you feel like you're not finding what you need locally, I would give it a try.[/quote]
