Whether you dream of dancing "Swan Lake" with the Royal Ballet or are taking ballet classes simply for fun and exercise, you'll need ballet slippers. It's important that you find the best brand and fit for your needs.
A slipper is flexible, while pointe shoes are box-toed, made of shiny satin and used by advanced ballet dancers for pointework, or dance moves that require balancing on the tips of one's toes. Pointe shoes, also called toe shoes, are normally worn only by female dancers, though male dancers will occasionally wear them. Ballet slippers come in leather and in canvas. Leather lasts longer and is warmer, something to consider if you'll be spending hours practicing in a drafty dance studio. Canvas slippers are less expensive, are washable and can be dyed to match any costume. They tend not to stick to the floor as much as leather slippers do.
I found this Bloch Elastosplit X Leather Split Sole. It is designed to enhance the level of comfort and aesthetic for dancers. Elastic system contours to the natural lines of the foot to perfection and uses symmetrical force to provide excellent support and security. Neoprene insert provides room for the metatarsal joints when going through demi pointe. Shoe molds to the sole of the foot, hugging the arch and enhancing the line.
