Bloch first developed the Demi-pointe shoe in the 1960s as a transitional shoe to help train dancers for pointe work. The Demi Pointe is more structured than a ballet flat and the sole and box provide resistance helping to build the necessary strength in the foot and leg muscles required for pointe work.

Product Features:

• The Tensus Demi has a leather outsole and is made on the same last as the Aspiration pointe shoe.
• The last shape supports the foot and creates a smooth surface and stability when running, walking or standing flat.
• The Demi-pointe shoe has a square shaped box, low cut sides and a narrow heel.
• These features combine to accentuate the profile of the foot and suit the dancer with a narrow heel.

  *NOT designed for work "en pointe"*

  We always recommend being fitted by a professional pointe shoe fitter, if that is not possible the manufacturer’s sizing suggestion for this style is street size minus 2.5 or 3 sizes.
  This is a recommendation only, actual sizing may vary.

  Remember to order ribbon, elastic, pads, a stitch kit and mesh bag.
