European Balance B31

Bloch / European Balance Pointe Shoe in B31 / ES0160L B31

The European Balance in B31 is a deep brown with rich red undertones, the darkest shade in Bloch’s tonal range, for a continuous line from leg to toe with no pancaking. It pairs that shade with Bloch’s bestselling curved-last fit for dancers with slightly tapered, shorter toes and a broad crown.

Features:

• B31 satin: deep brown with strong red undertones, no pancaking needed

• Curved last follows the natural contours of the foot, keeping the shank in close contact with the instep

• Slightly tapered box with a snug internal fit for the toes

• Shorter vamp, ideal for shorter toes

• Generous platform for balanced weight distribution and less pressure on individual metatarsals

• Streamlined exterior that keeps the full platform width

• Low profile, medium sides and open throat for a snug, streamlined fit

• Traditional paste box

• Diagonal side seam reduces satin creasing

• Noise-reducing construction under the pleats

• Heel cushion

• Elastic drawstring

Sizes:

• Lengths: 3–9

• Widths: 0X, X, XX, XXX, XXXX
