You could add a period after shoes and then capitalize the, yes.
Some dancers wear special shoes. The toes (of the shoes) are stiff.
Or you could change the sentence in various ways, or add more information in another sentence, depending on what you wanted to say.
Some dancers wear special shoes with stiff toes. This is particularly frequent
