Ballet Slippers?

I have a pair of split-sole canvas slippers and I was wondering if I should get other kinds.


Why Leather?


Why Canvas?


Why split-soled?


Why full soled?


What kind do you use and why?

Ballet Slippers?
I love my leather split soled baby%26#039;s. They%26#039;ve just always worked for me. Leather gives more support than canvas and split sole lets your feet move easier. Stick with your canvas ones though, there%26#039;s no point in returning them now unless they are uncomfortable. Its really up to you and you%26#039;re opinion, I%26#039;ve tried many kinds and landed on my favorite, but other people might completely disagree. Hopefully(unlike one of my dance studios) you%26#039;re studio won%26#039;t care what kind they are so its basically up to you. Try going to a dance store and trying the different kinds on and actually dancing in them. Ask for the people%26#039;s opinion who work there also. Well, I hope this helped and best of luck!
Reply:split-sole canvas shoes are a good choice!
Reply:use the kind that makes you feel nice and make you look stylish and who cares what kind you pick. Any way pick the kind that makes you feel relaxed and happy! i hope that helps =)
Reply:split sole is best for me, because its easier to point in and looks better.


i like canvas over leather, because ur feet can breathe in canvas, but leather is also good because it forms to ur feet easier.


i use the same kind as u
Reply:Why Leather? Because it will last longer and won%26#039;t smell as badly.





Why Canvas? Easier to wear, lighter.





Why split-soled? Shows off your arch better.





Why full soled? Makes you work through your foot more, but won%26#039;t flatter your arch.





What kind do you use and why? Bloch Pump Canvas and Capezio Juliette. The Pump makes my non-arched feet look good. Capezio is comfortable.





Good Luck
Reply:Canvas Split Sole is the way to go. that is what i have and everybody at my studio says that i have beautiful feet (nice arch, etc.) and they are just much more easier to sew. never get full sole because your feet will appear to b crappy! lol.
Reply:canvas split soles are a great choice. leather doesnt look good to me. i like split soled as it seems easier to point and shows off your arch better.





however, i dont use any of those. i have ballet shoes that cover the front of your foot and the heel. elastics cross from the right side of the front piece to the left side of the back piece and vice versa. i tried to find a picture but i couldn%26#039;t. i%26#039;m not sure of the actual name but i really like them. the plus side? you dont have to sew on any elastics
Reply:leather split-soled are the best I think cus leather lasts longer and split-soled cus it gives you more of an arch and is easier for advanced dancers. You can do more pointing and it will look great. full-soled slippers are for beginners and more for little girls!!
Reply:i personally dont like canvas because its slippery on marley and my feet just look bad in them. i FINALLY had to bite it and buy new slippers this year (first pair since 8th grade, and I turned 25 yesterday...) The pair i was using were old school capezio leather full-soles, like older than the capezio daisies, but if I hadn%26#039;t been so used to them and reglued the sole 56 times, I would certainly have gone with a leather split sole, like the bloch SO2. thats what im using now, and i really like them. they make my flat arches look decent...theres really no saving ym crummy feet...and i personally think theyre much more comfortable than canvas.
Reply:It depends on what kind you want. Here%26#039;s the list of different materials and characteristic each shoes offer:





Materials:


Leather: Commonly used because is cheaper compared to satin. It is also quite lasting as compared to canvas and satin





Canvas: Cheapest of the 3 options. Can be washed by washing machine in gentle cycle. Apperance is not that appealing.





Satin: Shiny cloth-like material. Very pretty and often used in exams or performances. Dirty more easily and stains are hard to remove.





Characterics:


Full-sole: The leather sole covers the foot without any breaking. The sole is thus harder and requires the dancer to pointe harder to see the arch. This helps to strengthen the foot.





Split-sole: sole is divided into 2 parts, with the centre arch being soleless, and replaced by the outer leather/satin/canvas. Without the sole, is easier to pointe, hence giving nicer arch.
Reply:The best kind to get are leather with a canvas arch. The leather is good because it doesn%26#039;t get dirty as easily as canvas, but the canvas arch hugs your arch and makes your foot look even more pointed. Split sole is definitely better than full soled because full soled doesn%26#039;t compliment anyone%26#039;s feet. Split soled shows the curve of your foot where the too soles split. I love my leather, split soled, canvas arch. Leather with mesh arches work really well too. Look for the mesh under the Leo%26#039;s brand and the Leather/canvas ones under Sansha. Good luck!!!
Reply:I use canvas split sole. Leather lasts longer but it is less breathable. I like the split sole because I think it gives the foot a better line.
Reply:If you want to work your feet more, go with the leather full soled. Even though it doesn%26#039;t seem like it would be different, you have to work your feet harder to create a nice line in the full soled. However, most studios these days use split soled. So, if you want the popular shoe, go with the split soled. If you want a shoe that is going to benefit your feet more in the long run, go with the full soled and maybe wear the splits in performances. Good luck with your dancing!
