Gaynor Minden Pointe Shoes Sleek

• For a tapered, "V"-shaped foot: Sleek has a slim metatarsal and a truly narrow midfoot and heel
• Shanks and boxes made from flexible polymer, which never weakens (laboratory tested to withstand over 250,000 relevés!)
• Textured Poron sockliners for impact absorption, comfort, and grip
• Non-collapsing box promotes correct alignment with every relevé – so important for beginners
• Platform offers 38% greater usable surface for enhanced stability
• Side open drawstring – much more comfortable
• Pre-arched shank for better support and a prettier line – but you still have to work your feet
• Pleatless panel with genuine Poron to eliminate noise
• Suede tips, already sew on, for even more longevity!

We recommend that you have your pointe shoes professionally fitted. As trained and approved fitters for Gaynor Minden, to book your fitting appointment with Weston Dancewear, please call 01934 419818.
