WTB: Oldstyle Leather Road Shoes - size 36

My wife's old all-leather Duegi's are starting to crumble
beyond repair, and I can't get her to try any of the newer,
stiffer shoes with synthetic soles. She realy loves that
all-leather feel.

To make matters worse, she needs a really small shoe --a
36!

Any ideas of who/where? Surely there's a hidden stockpile,
somewhere, of obsolete, unpopular sized road shoes from the
70's/80's??

You can find odd sizes like that gathering dust in bike
shops, on eBay, and at swap meets. I might have a pair of
used Sidi Revolutions in that size but those have some mesh
in them. Highly recommend trying a swap meet if there's one
in your area.

You might want to call Cyclesport in Media, PA. I saw a few
pairs of old shoes as you describe. 610.565.9535

As long as we are talking about small old shoes, I have a
pair of Detto Pietros in size 33 that I modified to take SPD
cleats [included] they are used very little and in near
perfect condition. Also, Gearne size 34's SPD and Look
compatible in a similar state. I'm entertaining offers from
people with little feet. Dan.
