Bloch's Aspiration is designed for the advanced student dancer with highly flexible insteps and ankles. It is designed to give the dancer when 'en pointe' the feeling of being elevated up out of the shoe and held away from the floor.The shank has an extra board shortened under the metatarsal which provides stability and support however this extra strength in the shank does not extend to the heel. This allows the foot to arch at the ¾ point with the heel being able to bend away from the foot.The platform is both high and wide to allow maximum balance when 'en pointe'.Ribbons and elastic sold separately
Hi there,
So I'm doing a little personal project which requires me gathering reference images of pointe shoes. would it be possible to get these in a size 9? Do they also come with the ribbons?

Good morning Duncan,
Thank you for contacting IDS
BL105L-PNK-C-8UK size is the biggest one we do. Also, for your information, ribbons and elastic sold separately.
Is there a specific way how to make the pointe shoe a little more flexible? Or as and when you use it it will get better and more “easy” to use and do the steps?

We would advise you to contact the manufacturer for advice on breaking in pointe shoes.
