Capezio Phoenix Strong Shank Pointe Shoe

Take your performance to the next level with the Capezio Phoenix Strong Shank Pointe Shoe—designed for dancers who love the Phoenix fit but need enhanced support and lift through the arch. Combining lightweight construction with a stronger, more structured build, this shoe delivers both elegance and control en pointe.

The Phoenix Strong features a slightly tapered toe box, low vamp, and sleek, pleat-free finish for a refined, streamlined line. Its standout innovation is the specialized heel design, which reduces pressure on the Achilles while allowing greater mobility—ideal for dancers seeking both comfort and deeper pliés.

Built with a #4 leather board shank that is three-quarter skived, this version offers moderate support with increased lift, making it a great choice for dancers who need more resistance under the arch without losing flexibility. Reinforced wings provide extra lateral stability, while the high and wide platform supports balanced weight distribution at the barre and on stage.

Inside, a plush microfiber lining helps minimize friction and moisture, while a removable surgical gel cushion adds targeted comfort at the platform.

Now available on clearance—perfect for dancers already familiar with the Phoenix fit.
