Its 2022. Why have we not designed a shoe that let's ballerinas toe point without that insanity?

Surely that would have to be a 'boot' up to the knee. If the performers aren't mangling themselves, would the ballet attendants even care?

They're already tying all the way up the shin. We might aswell make a shoe to allow the same art without the pain and torture.

You'd think that community as a whole would get together and find a solution for this.

3 years ago | Likes 77 Dislikes 2

The solution to ballet dancers feet is to not stand like that. The solution is so obvious that doctors have stopped suggesting it

3 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

The hard part isn’t devising a medical solution - it’s convincing the ballerinas to let surgeons replace their toes with hooves

There are solutions... But the old guard demands the new suffer as they did. It's fucking sick.

Yeah you’d think they could do some sort of foam mold around the toes or something.

They have those. There are countless products out there. The more advance you get the tougher your feet and use less padding....

Don't they? I tried ballet shoes only once as a teenager, they came with a little pad for the toes. Maybe adults don't use those anymore?

It was decades ago, and from a medical library. But the article I read was about the 'Dread black line', a knee injury that would (1/x)
