Medora

$120.00

We recommend getting fitted by our professional fitters before you buy a new pair of pointe shoes.

SKU: N/A Categories: , Tag: Brand:

Medora is a premium pointe shoe made on a classical last. The durable, unbreakable non-plastic shank minimizes break in and prolongs the lifespan of the shoe making it perfect for dancers of any level, including professionals. A reinforced, machine-stitched recycled leather sole with non-slip surface, longer wings and a pre-arched construction provide excellent balance, support and stability for greater contact with the floor. Lightweight construction with a protective pad inside the platform and exclusive noise absorption technology in the platform and pleats due to the innovative direct stitching method, Medora is recommended for dancers with a low to medium arch and features a side tie drawstring which elongates the vamp to enhance the shape of the arch.

  • Slightly tapered, flat
  • Platform: Larger platform, moderately wide
  • Vamp: U-shaped, medium length
  • Shanks: Available in Soft (S) and Medium (M), which are more flexible due to its length, Hard (H), a full-length shank recommended for dancers with strong feet and Double Hard (HH), a reinforced full-length shank.
  • Drawstring: Elastic

Each new pair of dance shoes, especially pointe shoes, should always be fitted by an experienced dance shoe specialist. The correct shoe choice is vital to the health of a dancer’s foot. In order for a shoe to fulfill its function, it must fit properly. An ill-fitting shoe can contribute to the misuse or injury of a dancer’s muscles and tendons. As a dancer becomes stronger and more knowledgeable in her technique, her feet can change. For this reason, the fitting process remains necessary with each new pair of shoes.
