Most interesting fact learned here: deafness is a valuable characteristic in a Grishko pointe shoe cobbler! So cool!

does anyone else feel complete satisfaction when you hear pointe shoes thumping in unison and nice practice tutus flopping slightly when you echappe?

Lesson #1 never ever get on the bad side of anyone who is involved in the process of making your shoes!!! You be nice as pie to everyone and anyone with the company, shoe mistress at your company, everyone that has a hand with your shoes! Don't learn this lesson the hard way! Be nice and considerate and always tell them how much you appreciate all the hard work!!

I love how hard grishkos are. Before my hard shank freed of London’s lasted ONE day. I didn’t bend them, only did releves to break them in. And my hard Russian pointe rubins would last 2 weeks.
