The shoe not well made. It looked like something from Walmart that should cost $12.99, but insead was $41.  Certainly overpriced....I guess you pay for the name.  There was no support whatsoever.  There was not even a heel...just a small flat tab in the middle where the heel should be. It was not comfortable...felt like you were falling backward when walking.  I wore it to a gala and had problems walking in them. I realize they call them ballet shoes, but there needed to be some kind of support.
