The stretch canvas split sole technique shoe is the first ballet shoe from Suffolk. The lightweight shoe is built on a last designed by Mark Suffolk to accommodate modern foot shapes. The elasticized arch and top line allow the shoe to hug the foot and prevents gaping. The elegant lines of the low vamp and sides show off the foot and arch, and are designed to mimic the lines of a pointe shoe. Fitting suggestion is 1/2 size down from American street size.
