Inspired by Eastern European pointe shoe design with a V-cut, the new Bloch Raffiné model takes inspiration from the Heritage pointe shoe and innovates further to offer a shoe with refined lines, integrated noise reduction, and enhanced arch support. The contoured heel construction and shorter sole of the Raffiné create an elegant line that closely follows the natural shape of the foot while on pointe. The reinforced satin provides durability and minimizes noise.

Enhanced Lines – Excess material has been removed from the heel, and a shorter sole has been used to allow the shoe to follow the natural line of the heel more closely while on pointe.
Arch Support – Provides additional support in the arch of the foot while still allowing for full articulation of a classic insole.
Noise Reduction – Additional layers through the pleats and platform base provide up to 8 times more noise insulation.
Long-lasting – The reinforced satin material is stronger and more durable than traditional satins and helps reduce wrinkles, providing an overall smoother appearance.
