Hello! I am a dancer of 15 years and I am doing a school project on pointe shoe wear. I was wondering how long your capezio pointe shoes lasted and how often you wore them. Thanks so much!

See your question re: Bloch for the full answer.
Depends upon the style, again, but I had a pair of Capezio Glisses and they’re still ok for performances. They’re ‘dead’ for classroom work, but I wouldn’t think twice about wearing them for a show. I’ve probably had them for 4 or 5 years (though I nearly never wore them).
My experience with Capezio is that they make decent pointe shoes for beginners, but professionals and strong students are better in another brand of shoe. Artemis
well i started pointe 1 1/2 years ago and my shoes have lasted this long and i dont plan on getting rid of them anytime soon i wore them twice a week for an hour each class….they are still in great condition La La Lover
