Guest guest Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Louisa, Are they too wide? That's so weird that they're acting so different than her last pair. Check the heel to see if they have a different number than her old pair (where it says 1644). I think the narrows are marked N, standard is M and I think wide is W. I just got an idea, maybe you've tried it though. What if you laced the tongue in place and put the strap over the top of the boot? Also, if you tighten the strap with the tongue really super tight, then lace them up super tight maybe you can loosen the strap up under the laces and just let the laces hold her in? I used to do that a little with Darbi's shoes. Took like 6mo but the red mark on her foot nearly cleared entirely up. But her feet also stayed in the shoes very nicely at that point too. I think you'll have to see how she responds to loosening the strap like that. I will say however, if you don't find some way to stop those sores that the P/M's would be a good choice if you can afford them. With the insurance paying better now maybe they would be reasonable? Hope something works soon! Poor little Zoe feet :'( Kori hummm...At 08:12 AM 7/18/2005, you wrote: >Kori, > >Zoe always has red spots on the back of her heels.
