FREDERICK FREED,

Father of all ballet shoes, He still makes the shoes by an Inside and out Technique which was commonly done or the standard of production in the 1870's.

Currently if im not mistaken 40 % of the shoes distributed around the world is made by Freed's company.

-----> Every ballerina sticks to their own maker in their dance career lifetime.
