Choosing the Right Pointe Shoe for Ballet Dancing
Pointe shoes, in many ways, can be viewed as an extension of the dancer. Designed for pleasing aesthetics in addition to function, these shoes typically have a brief lifespan, but enable the dancer to move with incredible grace and strength.
The most critical feature of any pointe shoe is how well they fit. Proper fit safeguards the dancer's feet, ankles and legs and makes en pointe work possible. This is especially essential for younger dancers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as proper bone development can be impaired by incorrectly fitting shoes. There are a variety of brands and styles available, and no single type is built for every dancer. A dancer's experience, form of the foot and strength should be thought about in finding the best shoe.
The Bloch pointe shoe is available in different styles including Sylphide, Sonata, Suprima, Serenade, Aspiration, Concerta, Triomphe, and Alpha ¾ Sole. Beginner dancers will be suitable for the Sylphide, Sonata, or Suprima. The Sylphide has broader widths than other Bloch pointe shoes helping beginners with untrained feet roll-up onto pointe more easily.
The Suprima will feel comfortable to beginners and advanced students because it provides good flexibility while keeping good arch support. Note that some Bloch pointe shoes have the narrower box shape and snug heel which isn't suited to a "fleshy" foot,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Shoes such as the Aspiration and Alpha pointe shoe are designed with the advanced student in your mind. These shoes offer better arch flexibility but shouldn't be worn if you don't have strong feet and ankles.
Capezio Pointe Shoes
Capezio Pointe Shoes includes several styles, each meant for specific needs. The original Glissé features a hard shank, broad toe-box along with a U-shaped vamp to permit dancers to roll up to pointe comfortably. The Glissé ES provides the same, however with a harder shank. The Glissé Pro and Pro ES are meant for more experienced dancers and have a lower side and back height, with a medium and difficult shank respectively. The shankless Demi Soft is dependant on the Glissé design, and intended for pre-pointe students.
The Plié style is best suited for dancers needing a vamp that extends beyond the toe. Plié I offers a medium shank, and Plié II features a harder #5 shank. The Tendu style offers a medium shank and has a quick break-in time. Tendu II includes a broader box and wider platform. Both Aerial and Pavlowa shoes feature a Russian-styled tapered box. The Aerial is better to support high arches, as the Pavlowa offers a harder shank, longer vamp and heel height. The Contempora is definitely an American-style wide-platform shoe having a longer vamp minimizing heel.
Freed Pointe Shoes
Freed Pointe shoes are obtainable in the Classic,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Studio and Studio Pro styles. The different line is designed for a specific degree of dancer, as well as their physical requirements. The handcrafted Classic is particularly designed for the needs of the experienced or ballerina. It provides a deep, round vamp, but those needing more support will favor the deep V-cut vamp and stronger insole from the Classic Wing Block.
The Studio line is meant for the younger dancer and offers extra support. The Studio II style features a wider platform minimizing profile compared to original. The Studio Pro is also designed for the younger dancer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however it includes a V-shaped vamp and ¾ shank for greater flexibility.
Grishko Pointe Shoes
The road of Grishko Pointe shoes features Eleve and Releve models. The Eleve range from the Ulanova I and II. These footwear are intended for dancers instructed to roll-up on pointe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Ulanova I has a medium height vamp and versatile box for dancers with toes of an even or slightly varied length,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Ulanova II includes a deep vamp and it is best suited for dancers with longer toes or narrow feet.
The Releve styles, Fouette and Vaganova, are made to accommodate the Russian-style of springing on point. The Vaganova has a deep vamp and tapered box. This style is particularly suited for dancers with a flexible arch, longer toes or narrow feet. The Fouette has a broad box and wide platform best suited for dancers with shorter toes or wider feet.
Gaynor Minden Pointe Shoes
Gaynor Mindon Pointe shoes vary from many brands. While manufacturers commonly feature a variety of styles, Gaynor Mindon instead designs shoes over six fitting options; shank,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], vamp,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], heel, regular fit,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sleek fit and size. So many variations can seem to be confusing, however the benefit of this brand is the fact that dancers essentially custom made their shoes. The entire lines are designed to minimize the shock of impact and comfortably fit every type of foot. Shank options run from flexible/little support to hard/ample support. In order from flexible to hard shanks, options are Pianissimo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Featherflex , Supple, Extraflex and difficult. Vamp options include Regular, Deep and Sleek.
A deep vamp is the best for dancers with pronounced arches, while the sleek vamp is the best for feet wider along the ball and narrower towards the heel. High, Regular, Low and Sleek heels are available. Choosing together is a mainly dependent on comfort. The standard and Narrow fit shoes differ only in width, but less heel and vamp options are provided with Narrow Fit shoes.
Suffolk Pointe Shoes
Suffolk Pointe shoes includes the Solo, which features a slightly tapered box and longer vamp. It is available with a variety of shoe types, Standard insole, Hard insole or Light insole. Basically Light have a standard box which supplies uniform support right for most dancers. The sunshine version is really a flexible choice designed to help dancers go on pointe more easily. Hard insoles can be found with whether full or ¾ shank, so dancers have the choice of greater flexibility together with ample support. No matter the variation, the Solo Pointe shoe features a low profile to provide comfort through the metatarsal area without having to sacrifice support or function.
How do you choose?
There is not one shoe that overall is considered much better than almost every other shoe. It truly is a matter of individually fitting the best shoe to your foot. Be skeptical of other dancers recommendations since your feet will differ from theirs, and their shoes may go through very uncomfortable you. At this point you be aware of major brands of pointe shoes as well as their different characteristics. You should have a good knowledge of which type of shoe and which brand will fit best on your feet. I recommend getting a good retail dance store with a good shoe fitter. Get them to take you through the entire process of fitting different shoes and working out which shoe will best match your feet.
