Rubin®

For relevés that sparkle like a gem, discover Rubin®.

Its wide toe platform is exquisitely suited to feet with

even-length to slightly tapered toes. Meanwhile, its

pre-arched construction mimics the shape of the foot

en pointe, allowing dancers with lower arches to more

easily reach their fullest pointe and alleviating pressure

on the front of the foot in those with higher arches.

Regardless of foot architecture, pre-arching minimizes

break-in time and extends the life of the shoe.

ClassicCollection

ClassicCollection

The Classic Collection is a tribute to Russia’s legacy as the foremost producer of modern-day pointe

shoes. Classic models are masterfully crafted for feet that taper from metatarsal to heel and feature a high

crown for feet that are fuller from the floor to the top of the arch.

Choose from the traditional V-cut without drawstring or the more contemporary U-cut with drawstring.

The traditional V-cut without drawstring enhances the elegant lines of the foot.

Entrada®

Going en pointe is a rite of passage for young ballerinas.

Take that step with distinction in Entrada®. Its medium toe

platform is a superior fit for tapered toes, and its pre-arched

construction mimics the shape of the foot en pointe.

Pre-arched contruction allows dancers with lower arches

to more easily reach their fullest pointe and alleviates

pressure on the front of the foot in those with higher arches.

Regardless of foot architecture, pre-arching minimizes

break-in time and extends the life of the shoe.

Demi-pointes ease young dancers’ transition from slippers to

pointe shoes, giving them a taste of the limelight until they are

strong enough for pointework. More resistant than a slipper –

yet not supportive enough for pointework – demi-pointes allow

aspiring dancers to build strength while discovering the sensation

of working through a pointe shoe.
