The Bloch S0232 Soft Satin Ballet Shoes offer a wonderfully soft interpretation of the traditional satin ballet shoe. Unlike many satin styles that feel structured and firm, the S0232 is crafted from exceptionally soft satin that gently follows the foot, creating a lighter, more natural feel while maintaining the elegant appearance expected for ballet examinations and performances.
Its flexible full sole provides reassuring support without feeling overly rigid, making it an excellent choice for dancers who appreciate the classical look of satin but prefer a softer, more forgiving feel. Beautifully balanced between presentation and comfort, the S0232 has become a favourite for examination students seeking a refined, close-fitting ballet shoe.

The Bloch S0232 is designed for dancers who love the timeless elegance of satin without the firmer feel traditionally associated with the fabric. Its exceptionally soft construction allows the shoe to move naturally with the foot while maintaining the beautifully polished appearance teachers often recommend for examinations and performances.

Dance World Expert Tip
The Bloch S0232 is one of the softest satin ballet shoes available, making it feel noticeably more comfortable and flexible than many traditional satin styles. The crossed elastics are supplied unattached, allowing dancers or teachers to position and sew them for a personalised fit. As the satin has virtually no natural stretch, we recommend choosing a close, accurate fit, particularly for examinations where a neat classical appearance is important.
Bloch S0232 Fit Advice
Advanced & Professional Dancers
For a close examination or performance fit, many dancers choose approximately their measured foot size or up to ½ UK size above, depending on personal preference.
Growing Students & Adult Beginners
Approximately 1 UK size above measured foot length provides a comfortable everyday ballet fit while maintaining the shoe's elegant classical appearance.
First Ballet Shoes & Young Dancers
Approximately 1–1½ UK sizes above measured foot length is usually sufficient. As the satin has virtually no stretch, aim for a neat, secure fit rather than excessive growing room.
Dance World Fit Advice is intended as a helpful starting point. For the most accurate fit, always measure the dancer's foot rather than using their everyday shoe size. Foot shape, width and personal preference all influence the ideal fit.
