ABSTRACT:
A silicone rubber based custom toe cap for ballet pointe shoes which is molded to fit the tips of relatively shorter toes inside a ballet pointe shoe so as to provide more even weight-bearing across the tips of all toes. The toe cap is fabricated by molding a putty-like settable compound about the ends of the shorter toes utilizing the ballet pointe shoe in place over the toes and moldable compound as a mold resulting in a custom toe cap which conforms exactly to the three dimensional surface and topography of the dancer's toes, the shoe walls and toe platform.
