all of the sizing stuff I had pretty much known - how do you go about doing the special makeup order stuff though - do you get to try them on before using them? How much does it generally cost, I actually dance ballet, I stumbled across this site, but I've been told that I can learn to dance on pointe if I can find the shoes (supposed to make me a better partner because of a better understanding of balance points . . .) I thank everyone for their helpful responses thus far . . .
