Gaynor Minden Pianissimo Classic (Purple)

Gaynor Minden Pianissimo Classic (Purple) retains the timeless style of lustrous pink satin and elegant tapered lines, while incorporating a modern interior to meet the demands of today's athletic dancers. Handcrafted in Europe with superior materials and extensive knowledge of ballet, these shoes are designed by former dancers and provide unparalleled durability, lasting 3-5 times longer than traditional pointe shoes. Unlike other brands, Gaynor Mindens use flexible molded inserts in the shank and toe box for reliable support that will not soften with use. Made from a synthetic material known for its pliability, strength, and resilience, these inserts can withstand hundreds of thousands of relevés without weakening or deforming. In fact, they can even help promote correct alignment and are pre-arched for improved support and a more graceful line.
