The long vamp and wider toe box will keep you more comfortable, while the #3 shank helps you to roll up on your toes more easily. Salvatore Capezio was born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy. Uninterested in following in his father's footsteps as a construction engineer, he became an artist of his own right, a cobbler. In 1887, at the age of 17, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street, diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. Soon, the shop became a meeting place for dancers who would stop by to discuss their needs and to get a pair of his shoes. As Capezio's popularity grew, dancers from around the world made it a point to visit him and purchase his shoes. The innovation of the products that Salvatore Capezio created and the camaraderie he shared with the dancers molded the direction that his company would follow. In this image, the Capezio brand was established to promote and recognize ongoing achievements and participation in dance. Capezio products remain in the forefront in quality and in technological advances with innovations like the split-sole, the stretch-insert, the Dansneaker and the Tapsneaker. Capezio believes that their success is dependent upon the individual commitment of each customer to continually set new standards of creativity and performance, while preserving a reputation for dependability and distinction. Capezio pledges their support and dedication to the advancement of dance, theater and recreation in communities worldwide. ## Features - Satin - Leather sole - Ballet pointe shoe with U-throat, wide platform, and #3 shank - This shoe runs 1/2 size smaller than street shoe size ## Images ![Capezio Women's 102 Glisse Pointe Shoe - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cB7sVCtQS.jpg) ![Capezio Women's 102 Glisse Pointe Shoe - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wwrn2zkUS.jpg) ![Capezio Women's 102 Glisse Pointe Shoe - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712ueKn3x7L.jpg) ![Capezio Women's 102 Glisse Pointe Shoe - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81QdVvWk7GL.jpg) ![Capezio Women's 102 Glisse Pointe Shoe - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819b9OqdoiS.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good pointe shoe but with limits *by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2012* This is a great pointe shoe for the price. The fit chart was very accurate, making it much easier to order online. I saved over $25 buying online with free shipping. The only problem we have with this shoe is it's durability. As my daughter's pointe skills improved and her workouts intensified, these shoes failed to hold up for more than 3 months, approximately 14 classes. That can get expensive. However, we've not found another shoe that holds up better AND fits and feels so well on her feet. These are really easy for her to break in and don't leave blisters or in-grown toenails. Other brands we've tried have hurt her feet. We purchased the Capezio "ballet pink" ribbon in 3 yard length which matches these shoes perfectly. I also found some Gaynor Minden elastic in the same color that also matches these shoes and the ribbon, all purchased from Amazon. See my reviews for these products. ### ⭐⭐ Beware Sizing! *by D***3 on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2012* I didn't actually get a chance to dance on these shoes as the sizing on Amazon.com was horribly off! As a dancer who usually dances solely in Bloch shoes, I thought I'd take advantage of the wonderful sale Amazon was having on Capezio pointe shoes to try another brand and see what I thought. Unfortunately, the recommendation to purchase shoes 1/2 size smaller than street shoe sizing was terribly off and I had to return the shoes. When I checked on the Discount Dance website (those who had actually shipped the product to me), I found that they recommend sizing the Capezio pointe shoes 1 size *larger* than your street shoe size, which is a much more accurate recommendation. I attempted to do an exchange, only to find that the shipper was unable to exchange the too-small shoes for a pair that fit correctly because the inventory had been depleted. Had I received accurate information as to sizing in the first place, I could have taken advantage of the sale pricing to try out a new shoe. I notice that this inaccuracy still hasn't been corrected on Amazon's website, so I would recommend the buyer beware when relying on the sizing information provided on this website if you have never tried this particular shoe before. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Quality varies from pair to pair *by M***P on Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2014* I bought these for my girlfriend who dances several times. She likes them and they are sturdy enough. Her one complaint is that she never knows what to expect in the shoes. She says the way they feel is completely different from time to time. Sometimes she gets a really excellent pair and sometimes she gets a pair that is super uncomfortable. I guess that's the danger of getting a hand-made product online.She wears a size 8.5. With the silicone toe protector, she gets a size 9.5 and the fit is good. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2119916-capezio-womens-102-glisse-pointe-shoe](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2119916-capezio-womens-102-glisse-pointe-shoe) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
