HopelessMummy Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Does anyone know where I can recycle pointe and soft ballet shoes please? The amount of resources used... There must be a demand for these to be recycled somewhere? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I've found this article: https://pointemagazine.com/petit-pas/#:~:text=It seems wasteful to throw,want to hang onto them. It would seem that because of the materials and the way they are constructed they are not currently recyclable. I've got a feeling we had a thread about repurposing pointe shoes some years ago where a number of members were saying how they decorated them and perhaps gave the decorated items as presents. Does anyone else remember this? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
