Pointe Shoes for Egyptian Feet
You have Egyptian feet if your big toe is longer than all your other toes. Choosing a tapered shoe that holds the forefoot snugly is very important for this type of foot, otherwise the big toe suffers! Unfortunately, there's not a huge range of pointe shoes for Egyptian feet.
Note: vamp height in brackets. l = long, m = medium, s = short, c = custom (i.e. shoe can be ordered in a choice of three vamp heights)

Although not designed for Egyptian feet, many dancers find the Grishko 2007 work wells for Egyptian toes, especially the Pro Quiet model
