  • Sewing on the outside helps prevent blisters and is fine for use in class. Perhaps for stage one would sew them on the inside.

  • So you want to sew the ribbon on the outside of the shoe? No.

  • i have never sewn my elastics on the outside. always the inside.

  • i think the elastic is very ugly on the outside. i see the point that was made, but cosmetically...its very blah

  • Thanks for posting this,now i can sew my pointe shoes elastics and ribbons in a more correctly form

  • You can sew double elastics crossed. Some people would take class like that, but there's a long tradition of having ribbons sewn on pointe shoes, certainly for stage.

  • i just bought some pointe shoes and obviousvly i dont want the ribons on it , is just elastic safe? can i sew it crossed?

  • ?_?

  • You can sew ribbons on the inside through the lining without going through the satin with your needle.

  • how I sew the ribbons in the inside without that the stiches look on the outside??

  • Okay stop bad mouthing the video okay! You can sew it on the inside OR outside. If you sew it on the outside, it prevents blisters. It's the dancers decision on which way she likes it.

  • this is all wrong

  • Feel bad for the person who has those pointe shoes ..
