?Box: the front, wide part of the pointe shoe
The box can be either wide or tapered. A tapered box is narrower toward the tip of the shoe and gets wider as it approaches the drawstring. Shoes with a tapered box are good for dancers whose toes decrease in length from the big toe to the pinky toe. Shoes with a wider box are great for dancers whose toes are all close to the same length.
?Vamp: the top part of the pointe shoe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which is a continuation of the box
Vamps can either be "V" shaped or "U" shaped. "V" shaped vamps are usually longer, which gives the foot a little extra support.
?Shank: the "spine" of the pointe shoe
The shank is the part of the shoe that must be "broken in." The shank provides arch support in the shoe. Shanks come in different strengths: hard,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], medium, and soft. Most beginner pointe dancers should get medium or hard shanks to build strength in their arches.
?Platform: the flat end of the box that you relevee onto
?Throat: the open area where the foot fits into the shoe
Find the Perfect Fit
Pointe shoes must have an exact fit on the foot,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], almost like a sock. In order to get the correct fit, consider the following tips:
?There are many different brands of pointe shoes to choose from; all are made differently to fit different types of feet. Do not buy a certain style of pointe shoe just because your friend has them. Try to find the style that is comfortable and fits your foot best.
?The sizing of pointe shoes is usually different from the sizing of street shoes. Some brands of pointe shoes run smaller than street shoes while other brands run larger than street shoes.
?If purchasing pointe shoes online, most websites offer size charts that compare the size of the pointe shoe to the size of a street shoe.
?If purchasing pointe shoes from a store,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is best to let the employee measure your foot, or tell the employee the size of your street shoe.
?When standing normally in pointe shoes, toes should reach the end of the shoe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but should not be crunched, bent, or overlapped. If toes are crunched or bent, try the next size up. If toes are overlapping each other,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], try a wider width or a shoe with a wider box.
?When standing in relevee,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there should only be a thumb's width of pinch at the heel of the shoe.
?Make sure to pull and tie the drawstring so that the shoe is as tight as it can be. This will help keep the shoe from slipping off.
