The Sonata Pointe Shoe is designed for students and professionals with flexible arches, and it's features combine to stabilize the foot en pointe. The Sonata has an unsecured heel and, with the design of the shank, works together to support and align the foot en pointe. With less resistance from the shank past the break point, the dancer will feel well supported and uplifted when en pointe.
A soft sponge cushion insert is inside the box at the platform, which gives extra comfort and protection when standing en pointe, acting as a shock absorber
Complete with removable internal gel toe cushions
For the dancer with very flexible arches, Sonata actively supports the foot under the metatarsals while still allowing the foot to arch at the 3⁄4 mark
Wide, rounded platform
Medium U-shaped vamp and high-cut sides give support
Full-length, medium strength shank is partially detached from the shoe past the break point, which gives less resistance while remaining supportive
Noise reduction under the pleats
Heel has a snug, narrow fit
A paste
Cotton drawstring
Removable internal gel toe cushions
