The Donatella pointe shoe has been thoughtfully designed with an array of features, such as the ability to roll to demi-pointe with ease due to the #1 shank board at the ball of the foot. The Donatella has a moderate, slightly tapered toe box and a medium, #2 leather board shank. It is lined with Capezio's rose colour plush inner lining for extra comfort as well as reduced slipping. The slight "U" shaped throat flatters the arch and creates an overall sleeker appearance while the wide platform assists with much-needed balance at the barre. Ideal for a moderate (Greek) foot.
