Non heel pole shoes

Posted by Sinnamon on April 20, 2011 at 9:26 pm

I am sure you ladies already have a thread on this but I couldn’t find it!
I am wondering if anyone poles in shoes other than heels and what brand? I have been keeping my eyes open for something that would work but haven’t found anything yet.

RhiannanNichole danced in bloch jazz shoes. Like dance sneakers. I think they have a pointe box thingy in the tip but feel and look like archy sneakers.

You can buy ’em at any dance supply store.

Sinnamon…I think you may be talking about Vibrams

I have not tried these. If I am not in shoes I am usually barefoot. I know alot of girls are starting to wear the foot undies/paws which are lyrical "shoes"

To anyone who is trying to copy and paste the link above…

Remove the last quotation forward….otherwise it gives you a page error.

it should finish at.jpeg

Anyway–those are super freaky shoes!! Love them!!!

Kind of reminds me of the toe socks….My DD will fall in LOVE with those shoes when I show her! Maybe I shouldn't actually……….Then she will want a pair and they are likely expensive. LOL

Thanks for posting the links….

They are around $80. I was going to try on a friends pair yesterday but totally ran out of time.

I haven't been poling long enough to know whats good and whats not for pole stuff, but I've been dancing forever. I've been thinking about getting a pair of these things: http://www.zappos.com/multiview/7135568/3  They let your pivot and turn on the ball of your foot without sticking to the floor or getting rugburn, but leave your heal and toes free. Anyone tried them? Worth it to get a pair?

Foot undies ROCK!

I love them….

I also have a pair of nice jazz shoes that I wear…They only cost me 25 bucks or something cuz they were an earlier year model……..BUT, as I use them occassionally to practice in…….I don't need them to be the top of the line….newest trendy look~~no one else sees them but me.

OH…and the kids I coach gymnastics too~~I will wear them in the gym cuz we aren't allowed any outdoor footwear…..
