Bloch Girl's Split Sole Laceless Jazz Dance Shoe is made of full grain, soft leather and a strong elastic top piece. The rubber outsole is designed to be strong, yet flexible, and has passed the Bloch spin test. The strong heel counter prevents collapsing and the lining, made of 100% cotton, adds strength that helps the shoe breathe. The shoe is light, soft and flexible, yet tough in all the right places.

Bloch is well a renowned name in the dance world. It was 1932 when the first Bloch ballet shoes were made in a candle lit workshop in Paddington, Sydney by Jacob Bloch, a shomaker by trade. Due to innovative design and unparalleled quality, Bloch shoes quickly gained reputation, and became favorites of world class ballerinas, such as Olga Spessitzava, Tamara Toumanova, Irina Baranova, David Lichine, Tatiana Riabouchinskaya and Helene Kirsova.

Today, Bloch makes not only pointe shoes, but the full dance range, becoming a leader in the technical dance market.

Bloch family, now in its third generation, continues to lead the company, and promote Bloch dance DNA around the world. The company recently added a dance inspired fashion line, which has also been a success.
