Could you elaborate on that? I'm looking for a few better quality sneakers and have been considering CP's as well.

Sorry to resurrect a long dead thread, but I was planning on putting my geobaskets and common projects in long-term storage for a while and I'm not sure how exactly to care for them.
I was thinking of placing them in dustbags, putting them in their respective boxes box and chucking them into my closet for about 6 months but I'm not sure if shoe trees are appropriate for controlling the moisture content that would affect the leather and to help them keep their shape.

For 6 months, I think you'd be fine simply stuffing the sneakers with the paper that originally came inside them. I don't think shoe trees will do much for your sneakers. They don't necessarily need to keep their shape like a dress shoes do.
