She wears custom Grishko pointe shoe. A prima ballerina of a company that well funded and large has custom shoes made. Hers have extra hard shanks and a longer vamp to accommodate her amazingly flexible feet. She’s one of the poster dancers for Grishko as well. In fact on their Russian website it says, “Svetlana Zakharova is our regular customer and has always danced in the GRISHKO ballet pointe…Our shoemakers have her individual last.” Hope that helped!

I think she switched to gaynors, look at what she's wearing in her most recent sleeping beauty videos. The performances with David Hallberg. Sad 🙁 she looked so good in grishkos, say goodbye to her rolling through ever again.
