Only decent thing to do is pass them on to someone who will fit into them without resorting to crippling hinmself.

Well me feet must be shrinking cos they are actually a pretty close fit, so maybe just a little stretching and the continued use of very thin socks required.

In respect of getting the plate redone, I think it would be just to complex, as it has all the shoes displayed on them. I only actually did about a shoe and a half before realising, but I am afraid I think it is a case of 'whats done is done!'.

The plate already had dents over over it from when the brass knobs on the shoe trees supplied banged it during shipping anyway, so no real loss I guess. At least the shoe horn polished up well!

Bit crap that the pictures aren't even etched in.
That's fuckin' weak considering all the trouble they went to.

Well, I did the shoe horn first, which has a deep etching on it, and it was fine, so didnt even think to check if the back plate was etched. More fool me probably, but agreed, very fuckin weak.....

.... Brass tarishes, so needs cleaning, simple... But maybe they just expected people to throw the boxes away????

"Errr, yeah, hi, I've got these trainers, I won them in an auction from some guy who won them in an auction, from some guy you gave them to for standing around in the cold, after taking photos and answering a silly question. Yeah, well I kind of fucked the brass plate on the back of the box ! Errr, can I have some money back ? Eh ? Can I do what with the box ?"

Nice to see you are keeping track of trainer movements throughout the country.

What was the silly question?
