The MDM Intrinsic Ballet Shoe hybrid sole canvas ballet slipper was created with the aim of surpassing the traditional full sole ballet slipper. Its split sole design gives it an outer appearance of a split sole, with the functional benefits of a full sole. This provides the wearer with sensory feedback, controlled resistance, and shock absorption. The Dance Base Support technology integrated into the slipper helps it become a viable option for students in training, defying the advice of teachers against split sole slippers for young dancers.
