Introducing an all new shank strength to our revolutionary Etu pointe shoe. Fusing cutting-edge technology with the best of traditional craftsmanship, Etu Flex delivers all the advantages of modern technology in the toe box, while retaining the benefits of a traditional pointe shoe thanks to the design of its all-new flexible insole. Features Soft/Medium Insole - The Relevease™ design has been re-engineered to provide greater flexibility through its use of traditional materials, while still providing support en pointe. Extreme Comfort - A padded insole, toe protection and additional layers around the toe box make this our most comfortable pointe shoe yet. Long Lasting - The unique, non-traditional toe box provides long lasting support while still allowing for full articulation. PORON® Cushioning - The high quality PORON® in this shoe makes it quiet and shock absorbent both in the block and in the arch. Hybrid Design - The modern box is paired with traditional materials in the shank, allowing you to manipulate the shoe to perfectly match your instep. Spring-Loaded Sensation - The unique box offers a responsive and spring-loaded sensation onto pointe. Unmatched Stability - The ultra-flat design offers incredible stability on the supporting foot.
