Bloch ES0160 European Balance pointe shoes have a shank remain that will significantly improve injury protection. There is a tapered box with less internal space for the toes which creates a snug and secure fit. The exterior of the shoe has a more streamlined appearance. The platform reduces pressure on individual metatarsals. The European Balance has a diagonal side seam which reduces satin creasing. The low profile of the shoe, open throat line of the vamp shape, and the elastic drawstring, creates a streamlined, snug fit.
