BAROQUE Pointe Shoes - Flexible Standard Shank

Regular price €85,00 EUR

Wide, pleated platform = rock-solid turns

Color: PINK2
Shoe size

We don't advise purchasing pointe shoes for dancers who aren't professionally trained; wearing them could cause damage to the feet.

Size & Fit Advice

Best foot type: “Diamond” feet, even-length to slightly tapered toes with a clear narrow-down from metatarsals to heel.
Profile & support: Slightly tapered box, medium crown, wide pleated platform, and a streamlined heel for a snug, flattering wrap. Flexible standard shank + pre-arched construction = smoother roll-through and quicker break-in.
Vamp & cut: V2 (medium) vamp and U-cut with drawstring so you can micro-tune the topline.

Sizing tip: Pointe shoes are not street shoes, get a professional fitting when possible. If you’re between sizes or your heel slips, try the narrower width or tighten the drawstring slightly (never over-tighten). For compressible toes, consider light toe pads or spacers to keep weight evenly distributed across the platform.

Materials & Construction

Upper: Lustrous satin in RP Pink.
Lining: Soft, breathable lining crafted from ocean-bound recycled plastic (sustainability win!).
Outsole: Natural leather sole for quiet traction and durability.
Structure: Pre-arched box and shank designed to support articulation without excess bulk.

Care information

Break-in, not break-down: Warm the shoe with gentle roll-throughs and demi-plies; avoid crushing the box or sharply bending the shank.
Dry time matters: After class, air-dry 24–48 hours outside your bag; rotate pairs to extend life.
Keep the shape: Use mesh/cedar shapers.
Satin TLC: Spot-clean with a barely damp cloth or makeup sponge and mild soap; don’t soak.
Extra support: If approved by your teacher, reinforce box/wings with thin layers of pointe shoe hardener and allow to fully cure.

Balance Like a Boss

Description

Say hello to your new scene-stealer: RP, Baroque Pointe Shoes. Part of Sea of Pearls Collection, Baroque marries couture lines with clever engineering, and a planet-friendly heart. The flexible standard shank keeps your roll-through buttery, while the pre-arched build gives you that “already broken-in” look from the first plié. Inside, a soft lining made from ocean-bound plastic lets you dance greener without sacrificing a single fouetté.

If you’ve got “diamond” feet (even to slightly tapered toes) and a noticeable narrow-down from met to heel, this shoe is your match. The slightly tapered box, medium crown, and streamlined heel hug in all the right places, while a wide, pleated platform sets you up for no-drama balances. Love the Brava? Baroque is your glow-up: same confidence up front with a sleeker back and quicker stage-ready feel.
