Kelly Schmutte - Inventor of the PerfectFit Pointe Shoe Insert - 007

From dancing on pointe to inventing a pointe shoe insert worn by
dancers around the globe. Meet Kelly Schmutte, Founder of
PerfectFit Pointe Shoe Inserts!


When Kelly first when on pointe as a young ballet dancer, she
couldn’t help but think, “There’s got to be a better way to do
this!” 


“Dancers feet and toes are as different as their faces”. With
this realization, Kelly noticed a problem. Most toe pads on the
market were the same shape for all feet and are one uniform
thickness, which does nothing to improve weight distribution or
the fit of the shoe.


In 2015, after years of planning and processing, Kelly made a
solution. Her PerfectFit Pointe Shoe Inserts use a moldable
impression material to adapt each dancers unique foot to fit the
inside of their shoe like a glove.
