Capezio Student Footlight Ballet Shoes Black Leather

Description

Product Overview

The Capezio Student Footlight ballet shoe is crafted for serious dancers who demand both elegance and durability. Each pair features a premium full‑grain leather upper that molds to the foot over time, providing a custom‑fit feel. The scored leather sole offers a balance of flexibility and support, while the 2‑inch plastic heel topped with leather adds height without sacrificing stability. Inside, a moisture‑absorbent microfiber lining works with a foam‑padded footbed and an Achilles notch to reduce friction and keep the foot dry during intense practice sessions. The tapered toe box, closed toe and sides, and a refined leather buckle complete the classic silhouette.
