Bloch Serenade Ballet Dance Pointe Shoes - S0131L.
The Serenade pointe shoe has a similar shape to the Suprima and Sonata in that the heel is narrow and fits snugly. The platform is wider so is better suited to a dancer with square shaped toes. This also helps lateral balance and assists dancers who are inclined to "sickle" or fall off pointe sideways.
PLEASE NOTE - Pointe shoes can seriously damage your feet if not professionally fitted and it is advisable to have a professional fitting prior to purchase.
Colours: Pink Only Sizes: Small 1 to Large 9 including half sizes.
