Incorporating Suffolk®'s patented design, the Stratford lifts and supports the dancer while assisting into proper placement. This low-profile shoe has the pasting method of our Corps de Ballet collection which molds beautifully to the foot. The broad platform is stable en pointe and the tapered toe box offers an elegant line. This turn shoe is handmade in our company owned factory from all-natural biodegradable, traditional materials; including satin, leather, hessian, and Suffolk's exclusive paste formula, made in house.
