Re: thank you and what about used shoes for DBB?

[Guest guest]

I have sent off all of our shoes to others who have used them just

fine. Well, all except the last pair of 4's and her first pair with

the hole. In fact... Jenni here is talking about one of Darbi's old

pairs of shoes. The fact that they only are worn somewhere around 3

mo's before they need new ones means they're usually in pretty good

shape structurally, if not a little dirty looking but they also clean

up well. I would take a pair of used shoes over a new pair any day

actually... already broke in and soft lol.

I just wanted to add that I don't think it is a problem using used

shoes, we have always sent Collin's to who ever needed them and I

don't believe anyone ever had a problem. we actually have a red 12 "

bar right now if anyone needs it, I'll have to go check what size

shoes we have if any left.
