Toe-tally Fresh
Helping your pointe shoes last longer
After we found a way to help our Earth and create usable art, we decided to venture into helping dancers keep their pointe shoes alive just a little longer.
Our “Toe-tally Fresh” pointe shoe inserts are made of activated charcoal, baking soda, and essential oils to make your shoes last. The activated charcoal and baking soda pull moisture created from sweat out of your shoe, allowing them to harden up and dry out, while keeping them in your dance bag!
Gone are the days of having to leave your pointe shoes out of your dance bag all night long, only to forget them the next day!
The essential oils that are mixed in add a fresh smell, combatting the typical smell of pointe shoes. And guess what… these inserts work for any dance shoe! Tap, jazz, demi pointes, ballet flats, even half-soles!

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do Toe-tally Fresh™ pointe shoe inserts work?
- Slip the inserts into your shoes after class and toss them back in your dance bag. The activated charcoal and baking soda pull sweat and moisture out of the shoe so it dries and hardens back up, while natural essential oils keep it smelling fresh.
- Do the inserts work for shoes other than pointe shoes?
- Yes. They are made for pointe shoes but work in any dance shoe — tap, jazz, demi-pointes, ballet flats, and half-soles — as well as everyday and athletic shoes.
- How do the inserts help pointe shoes last longer?
- Sweat and moisture soften and break down pointe shoes. By drawing that moisture out between wears, the inserts let the shoe dry and harden back up, so each pair lasts longer.
- What are the inserts made of?
- A natural blend of activated charcoal, baking soda, and essential oils — so you never have to leave your shoes out to air overnight.
- What scents are available?
- Vanilla, lavender, peppermint, and unscented. The scent comes from all-natural essential oils.
- Do I have to take my shoes out of my bag to dry them?
- No — that is the whole point. The inserts dry your shoes right inside your dance bag, so you will never forget them out overnight again.
