  3. Unfortunately, I can't access any of the usual suspects anymore to get that answer. One of the sources that Paul D suggested to me is no longer available, and another is inaccessible.

  6. Hmmmm, Jill, anymore clues with this? A thought : 'new European maker'... established business outside Europe? or are we looking at a completely new outfit?

    I like the site you linked too. :)

  7. Jill You know I love a good quiz and this one was great!

    The maker is Aloart the shoe shown in the picture is called
    Punta in raso con suola intera medio forte [CLONE] which translated is
    Shaved tip in with medium entire sole hard [CLONE]
    It fustrated me that in the even though you was giving good clues in pointeshoes.net there was something I was over looking.
    Then today it came to me use the tags in pointeshoe blogs to find my answer. when I used Italian pointe shoes . At first it did not hit me . Then I started to clue in when I scrolled into Italian brands there was a name missing ...I saw reart,angelo luzio,porselli,anniel,and freddy. Then I went back to the tag Italian pointe shoe. There it was the missing name Aloart. I clicked on the link...went to products and there was the logo as plain as day found the shoe in the picture . Pointeshoe .net blogs dated 7-26-10 and 7-22-10... As they say elementary Jill ..Yes elementary..quite right jill
