Hard-to-find sizes are the point
Thrift racks are full of women's 8s and men's 10s. Men's 13, 14 and 15 — and wide toddler sizes — are another story. Those pairs often get thrown out because nobody nearby wears them. A national site fixes that: the one person in Ohio who needs a men's 14 can claim the pair from California and pay only shipping.
If you wear an unusual size, use the notify box on your size page so you hear about new pairs.

Shipping shoes: what it costs
A boxed pair of adult sneakers usually weighs 2–3 lb packed. Donors can ship without the shoebox in a poly mailer to cut the weight. You'll see the exact postage before paying; on top of it is a $2 packing buffer and the $2.99 fee. Kids' shoes are lighter and cheaper. Our shipping guide explains how donors pack to keep costs low.
Giving away shoes
Clean them, photograph the soles and the size tag inside the tongue, and list them at $0 under Shoes with the right gender and size. Worn-out pairs that nobody can wear belong in a textile or shoe recycling program, not on a listing.
