How long should one ribbon on a pointe shoes?
This depends purely on how large one's ankles are. Tie your ribbons around your ankle, ignoring any excess ribbon for the time being. If you do not know how to tie your ribbons, look it up at www.youtube.com. Once the ribbons are tied, cut them off at about two inches after the knot. Once taken off the foot, on ribbon should be longer than the other. Keep in mind that when you place the shoe on your foot with the ribbons untied, the longer ribbon should be on the inside.
