The Alpha pointe shoe features a 3/4 sole, perfect for advanced students and professionals with well-developed legs and feet.

The Alpha model has an exclusive 3/4 outer sole, which provides minimal resistance under the foot's longitudinal arch, past the "break point." This makes it an ideal choice for most foot shapes
The supportive sole is pre-designed to be trimmed to the desired length. We recommend leaving the soft edge for comfort during the arch. With less resistance from the supportive sole right after the "break point," the dancer will feel well-supported and lifted when "en pointe."
The 2/3 of the outer sole cut accentuates the contact point under the foot's longitudinal arch, improving its articulation.
The long vamp supports the foot, preventing excessive arching.
The platform is wide and high, allowing maximum balance when "en pointe."
The upper sides are reduced, and the heel is contoured.
B glue is used to allow the shoe to mold quickly to the foot's shape and facilitate its articulation.
This highly specialized pointe shoe should only be worn by dancers with strong legs and muscular feet to easily achieve "en pointe" with minimal support.
