Childrens Performance Leather Ballet Shoes, Split Sole | BAE11
(0)
Flexible leather split sole ballet shoes designed for children starting ballet or moving into regular classes. Ideal for beginners through to early exams, with a soft leather upper, built-in arch support and adjustable elastics that can be sewn to suit your child’s foot for a more personalised fit.
So Danca BAE11 Children’s Performance Leather Ballet Shoes – Flexible Support with Custom Fit
These children’s ballet shoes are slightly more structured than basic beginner styles, with a hybrid split sole that supports the arch while still allowing flexibility. A key feature is the adjustable elastics, which are not pre-sewn, so they can be positioned for a more secure and comfortable fit as your child grows and develops.
Who Are These Ballet Shoes For?
- Young dancers who need more support than basic soft shoes
- Students preparing for exams or building technique
- Parents looking for a more adjustable, secure fit
Key Benefits
- Soft leather upper for comfort and durability
- Hybrid split sole supports both flexibility and arch control
- Built-in arch support helps with early technique
- Elastics can be sewn to fit your child’s foot properly
- Universal fit – no left or right shoe
Fit & Sizing
- Designed for a snug, supportive fit
- Elastic placement can be adjusted for a better hold
- Avoid excess growing room, as this style works best when fitted closely
Why Choose Hybrid Split Sole Ballet Shoes?
Hybrid split sole ballet shoes offer a balance between support and flexibility. They are a good option for children who are starting to develop strength and technique, as they provide more structure than basic soft shoes while still allowing natural movement.

Shoes Size Chart
Some of our dance shoes come in European or American sizes which we convert into English sizing. The size you ordered may not match the size on the box, but it is the correct converted size. Please try on both shoes to check the fit.
Dance shoes are designed to fit snugly and securely, supporting movement, balance, and articulation. If you’re new to dance shoes, keep in mind that they will feel more fitted than regular street shoes - and many styles stretch slightly with wear.
