The shape of a pointe shoe is determined by the last. This is the form that a shoe is made on. It determines the internal fit and shape of the pointe shoe. A different last is used for each size and width within a given style. The strength of the pointe shoe comes from the shank – the “spine” of the shoe. Crafted from either leather board or red fibre board, the shank provides support to the arch and is located beneath the sock-lining. Capezio stock shanks range from #1 (light) to #7.5 (strong/supportive). Shanks may be “skived” (the thickness is reduced to provide flexibility) at the heel and or the ball of the foot. A dancer’s strength, technical ability and the flexibility of their arch will determine the appropriate shank required.
