used dance shoes?

jenn1981

Does anyone have kids in dance who might know if any place around here would buy back used dance shoes? I was a dancer pretty much my whole life up until college but still have a ton of my old dance shoes and most are in good condition. They are of course adult sizes (8-9) so i'd assume no one here would want them. I hate to just throw them away  but I need to get them out of my house and was hoping maybe some of the local studios or stores might buy back/sell them as used. I have a couple pairs of black tap shoes (heels and flats), one pair of black character shoes, one black pair of jazz shoes and a white pair of jazz boots. Can anyone help me!

What part of town are you in?  You could probably call studios around you and see if they have a collection of used shoes to offer their students who can't afford to buy new.  I can't remember if my old studio does or not.....it's on the east side.  But I'll ask a friend who still teaches there and get back to you.  Otherwise....good will???

OK....they will sell them.  It's Just Off Broadway in Mt. Carmel.  Let me know if you want more info.
