Russian Pointe Vamp Elastic

Russian Pointe Vamp Elastic is used to further customize the length and functionality of a pointe shoe's vamp. It provides the perfect amount of additional support to the vamp area of your pointe shoes without restricting your movement.

Many dancers who choose vamp elastic have very mobile feet, high arches, long toes or arches that "break" high up the foot. These dancers might experience their metatarsal joints popping out of the vamp on pointe, or their feet rolling over too far, even in a shoe with a long/high vamp.

Vamp elastic can also provide a happy medium between two vamp lengths. For example, if a dancer thinks she "might" want to move from a Vamp 2 to a Vamp 3, sometimes a strip of vamp elastic can do the trick.

Made in a European Pink color which perfectly matches your Russian Pointe pointe shoes, ribbons, and tights.

The elastic is a generous four inches wide to cover the instep securely, and finely woven for both a sleek appearance and a flexibility that hugs your foot as you move.
