POINTE SHOE RIBBON AND ELASTIC

Our pre-packaged pointe shoe elastic is two pieces of 14 inch elastic. This is the standard length for sewing one pair of pointe shoes. This is also enough to have a single strap or to criss cross the elastic around the ankle.

*Stretch and Satin Ribbon sold separately.

• Pre-packaged 7/8" wide, single-faced satin ribbon and elastic cut to the length needed for a pair of pointe shoes
• 2.5 yards of 7/8" rehearsal ribbon and 18" of 3/4" elastic per set

Available only from Russian Pointe, this classic elastic is soft and long-lasting, for dancers looking for secure support. Russian Pointe Woven Elastic is 7/8-inch wide and comes in a length of 18 inches, typically enough to provide single elastics on two pairs of pointe shoes or double elastics on one pair.

1514 Set of 1 inch wide elastic

Suffolk’s Set of Elastic is an 18-inch piece of elastic. It is woven elastic that has a high quality look and feel, which is the best for sewing pointe shoes. The woven elastic is made from dense interlocking threads that produce a premium product. Our elastic can be identified by the crosswise and parallel ribs that create a windowpane effect. Premium woven elastic does not narrow and cannot be seen through when stretched. However, it is easily stitched through without affecting the integrity of the elastic. Woven elastic also resists curling and is the softest elastic made. The elastic solidly secures the shoe to the foot of the dancer.

 

Typically, this 18 inch piece is enough to provide single elastics on two pairs of pointe shoes or double elastics on one pair. Buy two if you wish to criss cross.
