Shipping took forever for me too but they're good for the deal. Still, I prefer the woodlore shoe trees from shoezen for all my shoes. The front part of the rochester shoe trees are not sufficiently big for anything but my smallest loafers.

Cedarville still has the "forum special" link on ask andy front page. The Woodlore Epic shoe trees are the nicest I've seen for $20/pair, by far. I got a box of 10 pairs of shoe trees from grapevinehill and I don't like them. The heels are too narrow and sharp.

The Ebay Allen Edmonds auction store has them with reasonable shipping charges. Slightly imperfect seconds without the Woodlore plate, if that matters to you.

Anyone know if the Woodlore Epic shoetree has a high vamp? At least higher than the standard combination shoe tree?

FWIW, the Bass outlet stores sell trees two for $30. I don't know their quality though, I've never tried them.

I get them from Wallmart for $7, and the plastic ones are $3.

I've bought online from Bexley. If you buy multiple pairs, the cost starts to come down nicely.

bump. I am looking for shoe trees too. I bought a pair from the Johnston & Murphy store here at the local mall here for $26. I need to find a better deal online for my 2nd pair of nice shoes. I have the split ones, which I think work best since they can be used as one-size fits all kinda deal? How long does shipping normally take if i order one from ebay?

I've been buying Woodlore products and I'm happy with them. I've got a local retailer here I buy from. I even bought one of those shoe valet boxes to store my products and to polish my shoes on.

Does anyone know dealers in the US that carries shoe tree by specific sizes?

I am kinda in an awkward position where my shoe size (10 to 10.5 US) falls right in between Large and Medium.

I get mine from Johnston & Murphy at 2 for $45.

They seem to be on sale perpetually at this price for I've purchased them now for several years. I picked up two yesterday and the salesman noted that the only purchases I've made from them over the last couple of years has been shoe trees.
