Original, OpenToe 3, or OpenToe 4? Find the right design for your feet.
Every dancer's foot is unique. The key difference between our styles is the number of eyelets — which determines how much lace crosses the foot, how the leather can be pulled for fit, and how much foot and sock is visible. Getting this right makes a real difference to both performance and appearance.
