Ballet slippers (soft shoes) are typically made with a leather or canvas upper and a leather sole. Some slippers have a full sole (typically for younger students), and professionals tend to use a split soled shoe. Pointe shoes are made from a mold using many layers of burlap canvas and glue. The shank (covered by the sole) is traditionally made with a flexible leather board, but newer shoes are sometimes using synthetic materials in an effort to make shoes last longer. The shoe is covered by pink or peach satin (though other colors are made to match costumes, too)
