- The superb Alfa pointe shoe from Wear Moi is handmade in a classic technique by craftsmen trained in the best traditions of European shoe making. Using the latest material and design, this beautiful pointe shoe features a range of unique and unrivalled features and is suitable for both students and professional dancers.
• Pre-Arched Last - created espcially to follow the dancer's foot shape, following the arch with precision to provide optimum support and comfort.
• Elastic Drawstring - traditional look and feel of a drawstring, whilst eleasticity relieves pressure on the heel.
• Full Medium Shank - traditional look and feel to provide a beautiful foot aesthetic en-pointe
• U-Shaped Vamp and Universal Box - the box shape is square with a slight taper which fits a wide range of foot shapes.
• Flexible Paste - allows superb roll through the demi-pointe and full foot articulation
• Reinforced Toe Box - provides enhanced durability and balance. The slightly rounded reinforced platform is designed to flatten and morph to the dancer's unique balance pointe within approx. 2x hours of wear.
• High Wings - built up gradually to support the foot to ensure all toes are held within the box and creating a beautiful, clean aesthetic.
• Microfibre Insole and Heel Lining - prevents sliding in the shoe and wicks away moisture for optimum comfort
• Light Weight Design - creating a 'barely-there' feel
• Embossed Outsole - providing enhanced traction
