Siell\u00e4 sattuikin olemaan t\u00f6iss\u00e4 tuttu kasvo balettitunneilta. Niinp\u00e4 sitten p\u00e4\u00e4dyinkin ostamaan <a href=\"http:\/\/pienibalettiblogi.blogspot.fi\/\" target=\"_blank\">Helin\u00e4n<\/a> suosituksesta Merletin Stellat. Ne istuvat paremmin kuin SoDancat, eik\u00e4 ole kiristysnauhan solmua hiert\u00e4m\u00e4ss\u00e4. Kuminauhatkin oli valmiiksi ommeltu joten sit\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4n vaivaa ei tarvinnut n\u00e4hd\u00e4. Koko tosin on kaksi numeroa suurempi kuin SoDancan tossuissa. Ainoa mik\u00e4 pehmeiss\u00e4 tossuissa itse\u00e4ni v\u00e4h\u00e4n \u00e4rsytt\u00e4\u00e4 on hirve\u00e4n paksut kohdat p\u00e4ki\u00e4n ja kantap\u00e4\u00e4n alla. Etenkin p\u00e4ki\u00e4ll\u00e4 seistess\u00e4 tossu tuntuu ep\u00e4mukavan muhkuraiselta pohjasta. Tosin tossun rakenteen vuoksi p\u00e4ki\u00e4n alla on aina paksumpi kohta, kangas on siin\u00e4 laskostettu antamaan tossulle oikean muodon, valmistajasta riippumatta.<\/p>\n<p>K\u00e4rkitossuissakin on ilmennyt v\u00e4h\u00e4n ongelmaa. L\u00e4pin\u00e4kyv\u00e4t kuminauhat tuntuvat l\u00f6ystyv\u00e4n hirmuisen nopeasti k\u00e4yt\u00f6ss\u00e4, josta syyst\u00e4 kantap\u00e4\u00e4 tahtoo luiskahtaa tossuista ulos. Olen kirist\u00e4nyt kummankin tossun kuminauhoja jo kertaalleen ja toisen tossun kuminauha tuntuu edelleen tarvitsevan kiristyst\u00e4. Vaikka tossut ovat jo pehmenneet ihan mukavasti niin demipointe tuottaa edelleen hankaluuksia kun tuntuu ett\u00e4 kotelon etureuna est\u00e4\u00e4 nousemasta p\u00e4ki\u00e4lle. Varpailla seisten tuntuu ett\u00e4 paino p\u00e4\u00e4see putoamaan kokonaan isovarpaalle. T\u00e4m\u00e4 on ilmennyt ihan viimeaikoina ja pist\u00e4\u00e4 isovarpaan aikamoiselle rasitukselle. Olen pist\u00e4nyt silikonipehmusteen sis\u00e4\u00e4n lis\u00e4\u00e4 fyllinki\u00e4 <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(lampaanvillaa)<\/strong><\/span> pikkuvarpeiden kohdalle mutta se ei ole aivan kokonaan poistanut ongelmaa. Mietin ett\u00e4 voiko\u00a0kotelo olla antamassa periksi leveyssuunnassa? Aiemmin paino jakautui tasaisemmin jalkater\u00e4lle. Voi olla ett\u00e4 joudun hommaamaan vuoden vaihteessa uusia tossuja jos en keksi t\u00e4h\u00e4n mit\u00e4\u00e4n ratkaisua.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7004\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif?resize=214%2C100\" alt=\"inenglish\" width=\"214\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I have managed almost four years with one pair of soft baller slippers. I decided to launch the new season with new slippers. There isn&#8217;t really that much wrong with SoDanca slippers, but the drawstring elastic <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(the knot to be precise)<\/strong><\/span> rubs my feet quite annoyingly. I was going to order Bloch Pro Elastic slippers with wide solid elastic. Then I popped in local ballet shop, Piruetti, to check what they have to offer. Familiar face from my ballet class happened to work there. So I ended up buying Merlet Stella slippers, on <a href=\"http:\/\/pienibalettiblogi.blogspot.fi\/\" target=\"_blank\">Helin\u00e4&#8217;s <\/a>recommendation. They fit better than SoDanca slippers and there is no draw string to rub my feet. Even the elastics were already sewn on. Size is two sizes larger than SoDanca, but that doesn&#8217;t really matter. Only thing I don&#8217;t like on soft slippers is the uneven and lumpy sole. Especially when standing on releve the sole feels very uncomfortably uneven. There is always thicker area under the ball of the foot, due to the construction of the slipper, but it still nags me.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also been some problems with pointe shoes. Invisible elastics seem to get loose very easily, which causes the heel to come out of the shoe. I have already resewn them once, but the right shoe seems to need another sewing already. Even though pointe shoes are quite soft already, demipointe still gives me grief. It feels like the edge of the box is preventing me to go demipointe. Even though I have tried to soften the edge. When on pointe, I feel the weight is now completely on my big toes. This issue occurred recently and it really gives rough time for\u00a0the big toe. I have added more filling\u00a0<span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(lambs wool)<\/strong><\/span> over the smaller toes inside my silicone padding, but that hasn&#8217;t completely removed the pain. I was wondering, is it possible that\u00a0the box is going to give in the width support? Earlier the weight was distributed more evenly on the whole ball of the foot. I might have to buy new pointe shoes at the end of the year if I can&#8217;t find solution.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12110\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers1.jpg?resize=600%2C1012\" alt=\"balletslippers1\" width=\"600\" height=\"1012\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers1.jpg?w=600 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers1.jpg?resize=119%2C200 119w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers1.jpg?resize=178%2C300 178w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12111\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers2.jpg?resize=600%2C920\" alt=\"balletslippers2\" width=\"600\" height=\"920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers2.jpg?w=600 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers2.jpg?resize=130%2C200 130w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers2.jpg?resize=196%2C300 196w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers3.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12112\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers3.jpg?resize=600%2C971\" alt=\"balletslippers3\" width=\"600\" height=\"971\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers3.jpg?w=600 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers3.jpg?resize=124%2C200 124w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/balletslippers3.jpg?resize=185%2C300 185w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Olen kituutellut melkein nelj\u00e4 vuotta yksill\u00e4 pehmeill\u00e4 baletin harjoitustossuilla.
