New, refurbished sandals!

Old sandals with baby Izzy.
I bought a pair of orange Chaco sandals when I still lived in Minnesota. I felt bad about purchasing them for weeks because they were so expensive. But, I love, love, loved them and I wore them everyday all summer long for almost 3 summers. I wore them shopping, hiking, swimming, and in the garden. I threw them in the washing machine when they got dirty (or stinky). All was great until one day a strap broke.
I was upset. Very upset. I needed a another pair, but I really didn't want to buy a brand new, expensive pair of shoes. I stalked eBay Chaco sandals all winter with no luck. I thought about buying a different kind of sandals, but I really didn't want to. On a desperate whim I checked out the company's website and found that they repair their sandals! Yeh!!! I shipped my beloved orange sandals off to Colorado and they fixed them for me. My sandals got their groove back--new pink webbing and new soles. I am very excited (can you tell?). My new/ old sandals cost me $36 plus shipping.
Now, if only Dansko would do repairs.

A real cobbler's shop can fix most ANY shoes, but they most especially can fix ones that are of good quality to begin with. I'm sure a cobbler could fix Danskos.
There's a little shop in nearby Collegetown that resoles my Birkenstocks for only $30, and a 1/2 heel resole is only about $12. That's alot cheaper than what Birkenstock charges!
(Email me for the name of a shoe shop that will know where to send you.)
Cool sandals, nice toes, GREAT deal! I'm so happy for you!

Cute sandals and toes! Where are they in CO? Maybe they have outlet sales. I could go for you sometime. Or you could just come out here and visit. :)
Danskos are dangerous. They have an outlet site, but I think they are still expensive there too. I got a pair on eBay for $15 bucks and they still looked brand new. I felt pretty good about that one.
So, for $36 you basically got a brand new pair of sandals?! Plus they're already broken in for you-- very cool.
i like all these awesome sandals
can you share with me any online shoe shop from where I could buy all these shoes online
I wanna buy that sandal any online shoes shop to buy that shoes?
