Lightweight and flexible BLOCH: Hannah Pointe Shoes Size: 6 1/2 X (Regular Width) Retail Price: ¥12,100 I wore these once, but I feel like they don't fit my feet, so I'm selling them. The stretch ribbons and stretch elastics are still attached. I have attached suede non-slip pads to the tips of the pointe shoes. These pointe shoes can be used by a wide range of dancers, from beginners to advanced! They are easy to wear, even for beginners, so I recommend them♪ Standard vamp length Drawstring included U-cut I'm also selling other ballet items, so please take a look if you'd like♪ #ichigocafeballet Chacott stina eleve Delaro Milano class in yumiko sylphynes unoa alicia luckyleo rubia wear leotard tokyo For those who like Russian ballet, yoga, Pilates, conditioning, etc. ————————————— The platform is wide, providing good stability when standing, and the sole is very flexible, so it fits the arch of the foot perfectly. Because of the flat box shape, these pointe shoes are easy to dance in, even for those with wide feet but thin arches. They make it easy to roll up from demi-pointe, are lightweight, and quiet. They are similar to BLOCH's "AMERIE" pointe shoes, but the platform is slightly larger than the Amerie, and the vamp is slightly shorter, making them even more stable and easier to show off the instep. Those with weaker foot strength should choose these, while those with stronger feet should choose AMERIE! 【Comparison】 "Amerie" is really just a little more tapered than Hannah, and it bends slightly above the arch of the foot when standing. The vamp also feels a little longer. The initial shank (sole) flexibility is better with "Hannah", but with use, you can achieve truly soft pointe work. "Hannah" bends around the ball of the foot when standing. The flexibility when stepping into the shoe is softer with "Hannah". You can basically choose the same size and width for both pointe shoes.
