Sizing Guidelines:
Women: 2.5-3 sizes down from street shoe size
Men: ½ -1 sizes down from street shoe size
Pointe shoes should be quite snug around the foot and are best fit by an experienced professional.
When you have a good fit, the sides of the shoe will lay flat against the foot when standing on flat and there won't be any twisting through the box.
You should be able to feel the end of the box with your toes but not have them crunched.
If it feels comfy, it's too big!

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Só Dança Claudia SD09 pointe shoe come in?
The Claudia SD09 is available in child size 1.0s through adult size 10.5L, making it suitable for young students just beginning pointe work as well as adult professional dancers.
What widths are available for the Só Dança Claudia SD09?
The Claudia SD09 is offered in B and C widths. B width suits a narrower foot, while C width provides a slightly roomier fit, accommodating a broad range of foot anatomies.
Which shank strength should I choose for the Só Dança Claudia SD09?
The Claudia SD09 offers eight shank options: 3/4 Soft, 3/4 Normal, 3/4 Reinforced, 3/4 Extra Reinforced, Full Soft, Full Normal, Full Reinforced, and Full Extra Reinforced. Beginning students typically start with a 3/4 Soft or Full Soft shank, while intermediate and professional dancers with stronger feet generally prefer Full Reinforced or Full Extra Reinforced options. A professional fitter or ballet teacher can help determine the right choice based on the dancer's foot strength and training level.
What toe shapes does the Claudia SD09 fit best?
The Claudia SD09 features a V-vamp with a U-shaped opening designed to accommodate tapered, square, and Egyptian toe profiles. This design makes it one of the more versatile pointe shoes in the Só Dança lineup for dancers with different toe length distributions.
Does the Só Dança Claudia SD09 come ready to wear out of the box?
Yes. Each pair of the Claudia SD09 includes internal foam pads, ribbons, elastics, and leather toe covers, so dancers and studio owners do not need to purchase these accessories separately.
How should the Só Dança Claudia SD09 be cared for to extend its lifespan?
After each use, remove the shoe from any bag and allow it to air dry fully in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Alternating between two pairs during intensive training periods helps each shoe dry completely and prolongs the life of the box and shank. Avoid submerging the shoe in water, as this will break down the materials in the box prematurely.
