To answer your question,
the difference between the classic Ballet shoe and a pointe shoe is their overall apperance. As you may see (if you have seen them) a standard ballet shoe is rounded, and used by dancers that are trying to achieve stronger muscles in there feet. A pointe shoe has a flat tip so you are able to stand on your "tippy toes", these shoes are for dancers, who have proved they have good arch support,and muscle ability.
