The soft leather upper gradually adapts to the shape of the foot while the traditional full sole provides reassuring support for developing muscles and correct ballet technique. The result is a comfortable, dependable ballet shoe that encourages strength, balance and confidence throughout every lesson.

Available in Pink, White and Black, the SD69 allows dancers to choose the colour that best suits their ballet uniform. Many dancers select ballet shoes that closely match their tights or ballet socks to create a longer, uninterrupted leg line. The Pink colour is available in A (Narrow), B (Medium) and C (Wide) widths to suit a wider range of foot shapes, while White and Black are offered in the standard B (Medium) width, recommended for most dancers.

Dance World Expert Tip

The Pink SD69 is available in three width fittings: A (Narrow), B (Medium) and C (Wide). We recommend starting with B (Medium), as it comfortably fits most dancers. Choose A for particularly narrow feet or C if extra width is needed.
