The S0181L "Raffiné" Pointe Shoes are the perfect choice for both students and professionals alike. Their design features enhanced lines and minimalised noise, as well as the contoured heel construction and shorter outsole that enables a closer fit to the foot while en pointe. With two insoles available - classic and arch support - those seeking more support while en pointe are catered for. The reinforced satin provides durability and extra support, giving you even more stability while performing.
Features
- Excess material has been removed from the heel and a shorter outsole has been used to allow the shoe to follow the natural line of the heel more closely while en pointe
- The arch support insole option provides additional support in the arch of the foot while still allowing for the full articulation of a classic insole.
- Additional layering through the pleats and platform base provides up to 8 times more insulation from noise
- Reinforced satin material is stronger and longer lasting than traditional satins and helps to reduce wrinkles providing an overall smoother look.
- Removable internal gel cushions for the toe box for added comfort if the dancer chooses
- No heel cushion
- Cotton drawstring
- V shape vamp
- Medium platform
- Low sides
- Tapered last
- A-Paste
