Beaking in ballet slippers!?

I just got new NEW new leather full soled Bloch leather slippers and I used to wear canvas ones and I don't think that I really needed to break them in.

They are pretty tight and hard so I need to break them in because I don't want to go to class on monday with shoes that are hard to dance in

DONT COMMENT ON MY CHOICE OF BALLET SLIPPERS. I GOT FULL SOLED GET OVER IT

Are these pointes or flats? I'm assuming flats since you don't usually get leather pointes, so I'll give you advice for them.

I usually just wear mine about the house a bit to get them adjusted to the shape of my foot, and maybe do some pratice in them. If you're sitting down, be sure to flex your feet as well so that they get broken in that way as well.

And far from insulting full soles, I think they're good, since they make you work harder to get a proper arch, therefore strengthening your foot more.

Here is what my sister used to do. She would put on her toe shoes, step into a bath of warm water and wait until they were soaked through. Then she would get out and wear them until they dried. She said it made the shoes conform to her feet better and they were not as stiff afterward.
I would just sit and bend them with your hands, while you do it you could also sit in front of the TV or listen to the radio to keep you occupied. Also, I wore my full soled ballet shoes to class and they were broken in by the fifth class. I hope you break in your shoes!! :)

PS (dont put them in water, thats what a lot of people say, but it makes them soggy, they dont support your foot and then sometimes the color fades) just a suggestion.
well, i wear canvas slippers now, but i used to have leather, and pretty much you just have to wear them to class until they break in. your feet might start to hurt after a while during class, so i would switch them out with your old slippers until they are comfy to wear during the entire class.
