Ballet Shoes
Which type to get (canvas or leather)
Ballet shoes come in two major materials, canvas and leather.
Leather will tend to last longer than canvas, however a heavier person
can cause leather ones to stick rather than slide on the floor. A shoe that sticks
will wear out much faster. Canvas shoes can be much cheaper as well, so even though
they wear out faster they can still be more economical.
Ballet shoes purchasing
Here is a list of places where you can get them:
Split sole or full sole
Ballet shoes come in two major forms, split sole or full sole.
Split or full tend to not make much difference. Full sole shoes tend to be
cheaper, but usually this comes down to personal prefrence.
Ballet shoe that fits
Most people when purchasing these shoes tend to get ones that are to small. Make sure they are
big enough for your toes to spead out. Try the shoes on and attempt to do some ballet
steps to make sure they are comfortable under real use. Your feet will tend to
change sizes during the day so attempt to be fitted for your shoes at the same time of
day that you plan on dancing.
