Yep, this was a very good reason to buy new boots :smile: . The old boots looked like "stovepipes" :shock: and the soles were worn-out. I am all for donating but I think that those old musty boots were just plain household waste. Even my dog don´t want to chew on those old boots :lol: .
Old shoes contain multiple materials. This makes them less recycling-friendly. If they're already musty, it's very possible they're harboring mold. So I had chucked my 15!!!yrs:blush: old leather boots straight into the garbage:
