The Merlet Belle Pointe Shoe is hand-made in France. The pliable pre-arched shank helps develop foot muscles, making this shoe the perfect choice for young ballerinas or experienced dancers looking for a performance-ready shoe.
• Handmade in France
• The traditionally made box
• Adapted to help roll onto pointe with ease
• Pre-arched shape for stability
• Medium platform, slightly tapered shape
• Vamp 5.5cm
• S2 (4/4 Soft) Shank in natural fibers
• Eco-vegan tip
• Elastic contour for a perfect hold
• Soft, light pink cotton lining for comfort
*Sizing Information: This shoe runs small. Dancers may benefit from going up 1.5-2 sizes from regular shoe sizes. As with all pointe shoes, an in-person fitting should be done to determine the exact size.
