Ellie Shoes builds performance heels and platforms for dancers since 2000. California-engineered with inner zippers and heights to 8 inches.

Since 2000, Ellie Shoes has engineered heels that dancers actually live in. From clear competition platforms to towering 8-inch fetish stilettos, this California brand builds footwear that performs as hard as you do. Inner zippers, reinforced platforms, sizing that fits real bodies—they've earned loyalty across pole studios, competition stages, and bedrooms worldwide.

Why Ellie Shoes Stands Out

  1. Built for Movement: Platform construction and reinforced bases reduce strain during pole work and extended performance, letting you focus on execution rather than foot pain or instability.
  2. Quick-Change Engineering: Inner side zippers enable rapid costume changes between acts—critical for performers juggling multiple looks in a single evening without fumbling with straps.
  3. Authentic Vintage Partnerships: Licensed Bettie Page designs capture genuine 1950s aesthetics through authentic styling rather than generic retro knockoffs, appealing to enthusiasts who know the difference.

Ellie Shoes Product Lines

Exotic Dancer Collection

Purpose-built for stage and pole work, this line features clear platforms and patent leather stilettos ranging from 5 to 8 inches. The Brook series delivers the iconic transparent sandal style pole dancers demand—durable, fast-drying, and engineered to handle friction from spinning and climbing. Glossy finishes catch stage lighting while platform bases distribute weight during extended performances, reducing foot fatigue across multi-hour shifts.

Bettie Page Collection

Licensed vintage-inspired footwear celebrating 1950s pin-up and burlesque aesthetics through authentic design rather than superficial throwback styling. T-straps, slingbacks, and peep-toe pumps pair with rockabilly dresses and swing skirts while modest 3 to 5-inch heel heights prioritize comfortable wear during burlesque choreography. Modern construction meets historical silhouettes, delivering both aesthetic accuracy and contemporary support for extended performances. Explore our full bondage and fetish gear collection to complete your vintage performance aesthetic.

Go-Go Boot Collection

1960s-inspired knee and thigh-high boots featuring inner side zippers for effortless on-and-off access during rapid costume transitions. The signature 3-inch heel delivers classic mod styling in white, black, and bold statement colours with approximately 13-inch boot openings accommodating varied calf sizes. Glitter finishes add sparkle for party and performance contexts while stable construction supports extended wear during club nights and themed dance events.

Competition Collection

Purpose-engineered for NPC, IFBB, WBFF, and OCB bikini and figure competitors, this collection prioritizes minimal distraction from athletic conditioning. Clear materials and thin heel profiles keep judge focus on physique rather than footwear while the M-Brook 5-inch sandal remains the preferred choice among amateur and professional competitors. These heels complete the stage presentation without competing for attention.

Fetish and Boudoir Collection

Designed for intimate play and private performance, this line explores extreme styling through 8-inch heels, dramatic 2.75-inch platforms, and seductive details like marabou feathers and spike embellishments. The Flirt style combines towering height with architectural platforms while Vanity clear mules deliver peep-toe visual appeal. These bedroom shoes transform intimate moments through uncompromising drama and visual impact.

1031 Halloween and Costume Collection

Character-specific footwear completing Halloween, cosplay, and themed event costumes for adults and children. Superhero boots, Victorian styles, dominatrix platforms, military designs, and 80s retro options match manufactured costumes while specialty steampunk and maid styles add authentic finishing touches. Heel heights from 2 to 6 inches suit various costume concepts and wearer comfort levels across diverse character interpretations.

Who Chooses Ellie Shoes

Exotic Dancers and Pole Performers: They need footwear engineered for friction, spinning, and climbing without sacrificing dramatic height. Ellie's platforms reduce effective heel angles while maintaining visual impact, solving the core tension between safety and aesthetic that generic dance heels ignore.

Competition Athletes: Bikini and figure competitors demand clear minimal-profile footwear meeting strict judging guidelines while projecting confidence on stage. Ellie's competition line removes the distraction factor entirely, letting physique-building efforts shine without competing visual elements.

Boudoir and Fetish Enthusiasts: They value footwear communicating intentionality and visual drama during intimate moments. Ellie's extreme heel heights, spike embellishments, and theatrical styling create psychological impact beyond basic footwear, transforming private scenes through uncompromising aesthetic commitment.

Ellie Shoes Manufacturing Standards

  • Platform Engineering: Reinforced base construction distributes weight across extended wear periods while maintaining dramatic heel heights through architectural support beneath the foot.
  • Quick-Access Design: Inner side zippers eliminate struggle during rapid costume changes, critical for performers managing multiple looks between acts without backstage assistance.
  • Extended Sizing Options: Accommodating diverse foot sizes ensures performers of all proportions access appropriate heel heights and styles without settling for compromised fit.
  • Material Durability: Patent leather, vinyl, and clear plastics withstand repeated pole contact, floor work, and high-friction performance environments where ordinary heels deteriorate rapidly.
  • Licensed Vintage Authenticity: Official Bettie Page partnership ensures historically accurate 1950s styling through genuine silhouettes rather than superficial design references.

Why Ellie Shoes Delivers

Ellie emerged from California's exotic dance studios, not a generic footwear factory. This origin shaped every design decision: inner zippers address real costume-change problems dancers face, clear platforms solve the stability-versus-height contradiction that kills other brands, and extreme sizing reflects actual performer bodies rather than idealized samples. When a pole dancer trusts their grip and weight distribution to Ellie heels through eight-hour club nights, that's earned loyalty, not marketing. The Bettie Page partnership proves commitment to authentic vintage aesthetics beyond surface-level styling. Competition athletes choose M-Brook sandals because judges see athlete, not shoes—clarity matters when scoring physiques.

Using Ellie Shoes

Ellie heels work best with water-based lubricants on skin; avoid silicone-based products on patent leather finishes. Clear plastic materials benefit from gentle soap and water cleaning to prevent cloudiness, while patent leather responds to leather conditioner for shine maintenance. Store boots and heels with shoe trees or newspaper stuffing to maintain shape between uses. Inner zippers should be worked smoothly before performances to prevent catching during costume transitions. Platform bases grip most surfaces effectively, but practice walking in new heights before extended performances to build ankle conditioning and confidence.
