Bloch Alpha – pointe shoes

The Alpha is a highly specialised pointe shoe, designed for dancers with well-developed leg and foot muscles who are able to perform work on pointe with minimal support. This model is ideal for advanced students and professionals, thanks to its construction which allows for maximum articulation and optimal support.

Features:

• Three-quarter sole: reduced under the instep for minimal resistance, allowing maximum foot articulation.
• Conventional last: suitable for most foot shapes.
• Pre-cut upper: can be cut to the desired length, with a soft leather panel offering comfort to the arch of the foot.
• Wide, high platform: ensures maximum balance and stability on the toes.
• Long upper: supports the foot without overriding it.
• Reduced sole: emphasises the contact point under the instep for optimal articulation.
• U-shaped upper: prevents the foot from overriding.
• Cotton drawstring: for a snug fit.
• Noise reduction: incorporated into the folds of the shoe to enhance the stage experience.

The Alpha is designed to offer maximum support and freedom of movement, combining elegance, comfort and durability for the most experienced dancers.
