Bloch’s Balance European mimics the natural contours of the foot by having a curved last and significantly improves injury prevention because the shank remains in close contact with the instep. The low profile improves weight distribution and reduces pressure on the metatarsals. The heel seam cushion reduces material creasing and maintains the perfect line of the foot when on pointe, and the insole shape conforms to the arch. Dancers who choose this shoe often have even-length or square toes.

Thanks to its construction, this model offers a pliable yet consistent, supportive shank that forms perfectly to any dancer’s arch. The shank is 5 mm shorter in comparison to the Maya model which provides a perfect fit .

The sides are all 5 mm lower when compared to the Maya style. This improved design offers:
- a smooth appearance even en-pointe position, provided by the heel counter which securely hugs the heel,
- a more streamlined fit.

Our incredibly soft microfiber lining adds additional comfort and prevents the shoe from sliding off the foot.
The use of our Miracle glue in the box and wings, offers extreme flexibility and allows these parts to be easily adapted by hand. This innovative paste works equally well in cold, warm and humid climates.
Elasticated binding provides a snug, secure fit.

Bloch’s Balance European mimics the natural contours of the foot by having a curved last and significantly improves injury prevention because the shank remains in close contact with the instep. The low profile improves weight distribution and reduces pressure on the metatarsals. The heel seam cushion reduces material creasing and maintains the perfect line of the foot when on pointe, and the insole shape conforms to the arch. Dancers who choose this shoe often have even-length or square toes.
