Virtisse Verve Soft Shank Pointe Shoe
Verve is a state of the art, handcrafted pointe shoe that incorporates stretch-satin in the heel’s upper to provide clean lines and incredible support. No more bunching. No more bagging. This resoundingly versatile shoe is suitable for all dancers, but is specifically designed for those with compressible, flexible feet, that are otherwise considered to be in the shape of a triangle. Created with an all-natural, resilient shank to minimize break-in time and to prolong the life of the shoe. Long wings and a pre-arched construction provide excellent balance, support, and greater contact with the floor. Lightweight, with exclusive noise absorption technology and a wider sole in the metatarsal area for additional stability.
