Where are these shoes made?

After an exhaustive web search, I can only come up with that those shoes are made by Fuzy. There are only two companies that I saw that make split-sole pointes: Fuzy and Leo's. Leo's' have a criss-cross pattern in the sole, while Fuzy has the wavy design in the front sole. The logo on the heel sole and in the insole is throwing me off, though.

Hi Eric,

Fuzi is a really good guess since the fore-sole does have a similar pattern. However, they aren’t Fuzi Shoes. Yes, the logo on the heel and to a lesser extent insole is key. I hope you will try again.

Well, there is a "Swize" on the heel and insole, but I couldn't find anything that matched.
