Gaynor Minden 3+ Pointe Shoe Unboxing

[@brianne9]

I had the same sinking problem with the 4 box N width and have been curious about the 3+. I do want to try them on in person before ordering online but seeing the 3, 3+, and 4 side by side makes me hopeful that I may be able to go back to Gaynor's in the future! Thanks for sharing.

Hi, so I've been watching a few of your videos where you go up on pointe, and even though you have improved a lot, what I would recommend is getting a foot stretcher. You especially need to stretch the top of your feet. Strengthen your at as well. You have very slight biscuits, and need the flexibility to get over the box. I think you have the strength, but keep exersizing your feet. I think that once you get that flexibility in your ankle, you will be able to get over a lot. And remember, pointe shoes shouldn't be comfortable. For your feet, i think you should also get a width three, a lower vaml, and a soft shoe. Good luck with your pointe work!

Ashlyn Hatch Thanks! So I actually do have a foot stretcher that I use fairly often as well as theraband exercises. Unfortunately I took so much time off during prime stretching years that my feet really won’t improve much beyond this as an adult. I’ve always had really stiff ankles so no matter what I’ve done they don’t really improve. My feet are much better now than they were about 5 years ago before I restarted ballet but sadly I don’t think they’ll get much better than this. :( That’s unfortunately part of what makes finding good pointe shoes so hard for me 😅 I appreciate the advice though!

Ashlyn Hatch Hi just letting you know that the low vamp is the lowest vamp in the gaynors minden’s and that is what she got and also the feather flex is one of the softest gaynors minden shoes and she also mentioned that the 3 box was too narrow for her. Just helping you out so that you could give more accurate future tips for fittings.

I thought I was the only one when you mentioned that you didn’t have to work hard when you’re wearing your Heritage. I currently work with heritage and it does feel like you’re just sitting in the shoe. Very tempted to give Gaynors a go! Thanks for the review

[@AllieOnPointe]

Courtney Davies yes! I definitely find that Gaynors work my feet harder than a traditional shoe. Good luck!!

The 3+ box looks so good on you!

[@mewingmanda]

Yay! I hope these gaynors finally work for you!

[@themysticalrose1186]

[@hhutt6224]

I wish they had a 1 box. I can't use gaynors because the 2 is too wide
