R-Class, world-renowned makers of hand-crafted pointe shoes for more than thirty years, is now offering their shoes directly in the U.S. Crafted with precision and passion, these pointe shoes are designed to elevate your performance and provide dancers with unparalleled comfort and support.

The R-Class Arpeggia Pointe Shoes are part of the R-Class Classic Symphony Collection. These are pleated shoes that have higher crowns due to the traditional turn-shoe method used to construct them. The shanks and soles are attached using nails and glue. Both of these processes make the pointe shoes more pliable and allow the dancer to go further over the platform.

Arpeggia features a large, very square box, a medium crown, arch, and heel, and is made for dancers with less tapered feet and a fuller instep. It is designed with a U-Cut vamp, and includes an elastic drawstring.

The standard shank in Arpeggia is a Medium, which strikes the most popular balance between flexibility and support. It also has a unique space removed in the demi-pointe area to allow for smooth roll-throughs without sacrificing the strength in the arch area where it's needed most.

Elevate your dance experience with the R-Class Arpeggia Pointe Shoes, where tradition meets innovation for the ultimate expression of artistry and performance!
