Question

Why do you think that each pointe shoe made will not be exactly alike, even though they may be constructed by the same cobbler (shoe maker)?

Answer 1

Nothing is ever exactly the same especially when hand made. And when they are made by a shoe maker they could be made to fit the dancers foot exactly so it if their feet were a little different the pointe shoes would be different.

Answer 2

I would say that anything being hand-made will never have two of the same, simply because of it being hand-made things can't be perfectly replicated. Also, many ballerinas like to do things to the shoes to make them fit/work better. For example, they'll sew the arches or ankles to provide more support, and will bend the shoe in half so it isn't as stiff.
