... Read more
Gaynor Minden pointe shoes are wonderfully different. Gaynor Minden pioneered the use of high-tech impact reduction in pointe shoes and their shock absorbing design is now doctor-recommended. Their unbreakable shank flatters the foot while ensuring buoyant support and a durability unattainable in conventional pointe shoe construction. All of our Gaynor Minden's fitting and sizing are different too. Because they are made from advanced materials that do not deteriorate or lose their shape, they must never be fitted too tight, too wide, or too stiff. When ordering your Gaynor Minden shoes, Discount Dance Supply allows the dancer to not only specify the size and width but also the shank and box shape of her shoe without a costly special order. This lets the dancer customize her pointe shoes to best serve her own individual needs. All or our Gaynor Minden shoes have a deep vamp, high heel and either the unbreakable ExtraFlex, Supple or Hard shank. If you have not been professionally fitted in a pair of Gaynor Minden shoes, we suggest you visit the retailer nearest you and purchase your first pair of shoes from them. Ribbons not included

The Mirella Elegance Pointe Shoe has a lowered profile and very streamline aesthetic. The cushioned pleating and pasting method all combine together to create an extremely quiet shoe. Delicate and lightweight, this shoe has an oval shaped platform for ease of balancing and turning en pointe. The sides and heel of the shoe have been lowered, complimenting the "Open U" shaped vamp to truly highlight any dancers' instep and arch. The shank of the MS138 is pliable yet sturdy to hold up in long classes or rehearsals. The shank is glued down to the newly designed leather outsole thus eliminating the need for a tack. The flat leather outsole will act as the perfect guide; bending with the electrical board and shank at the correct 3/4 position of the dancers foot. The dancer will have the utmost control and articulation and as a result the dancer will feel as though she is "lifted", able to remain en pointe all day!

The Synergy by Bloch is constructed on the Y-Last. This last has been developed for the more advanced dancer. The Y-Last is wider around the metatarsals and their joints to accommodate bunions. The box is constructed with a special pasting method, using paste that is designed to shape itself to the dancer's foot when moist. This combination of paste and pasting method promotes fast and easy break-in and is also responsible for a large reduction of noise on the floor. The box also has a very solid toe for support and longevity shank has a red board body and a leatherboard centerpiece. This full shank contains no tack or glue on the heel. This allows the shank to bend easier at 3/4, reducing the pressure on itself and the shoe. This results in the dancer being supported height and straight under the arch without having to fight to get there.

Bloch's "Axis" pointe shoe with ThermoMorph Technology (TMT) has a "U" shaped vamp, medium shank, flat streamlined toe and lowered sides and angled seaming to minimize bagginess. This quiet shoe also features a curved last. Ribbons not included.About TMT: Your shoes are labeled 'left' and 'right'. Once you have activated TMT with each shoe, they will be molded to the form of either your left or right foot. Until now, the process of breaking in pointe shoes has been long and painful. It is not until a pointe shoe is 3/4 of the way through its lifespan that it reaches optimal performance and comfort. To redress this imbalance Bloch has developed TMT, an advanced formula, heat activated paste. TMT enables you to drastically accelerate the breaking-in process by molding your pointe shoes to the unique contours of your feet from the very first wear.
