Do I have to have special shoes for squash? - Sport & Outdoor - Others

Freezing squash is a great way to preserve it for later use. Here are the steps to freeze squash:

1. Choose squash that is fresh and ripe, with no soft spots or blemishes.
2. Wash the squash thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris.
3. Cut the squash into slices or cubes of your desired size. You can also leave it whole, but it will take longer to freeze and thaw.
4. Blanch the squash in boiling water for 3-5 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces. This will help preserve the color, flavor, and texture of the squash.
5. Remove the squash from the boiling water and immediately plunge it into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
6. Drain the squash well and pat it dry with a paper towel.
7. Pack the squash into airtight containers or freezer bags, leaving some room at the top for expansion.
8. Label the containers with the date and contents, and place them in the freezer.

Frozen squash can be stored for up to 12 months in the freezer. When you're ready to use it, simply thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or use it directly from the freezer in soups, stews, or casseroles.

I would go to a shoe shop that says it deals with "special feet" and see what they have or can get you in your size. We don't have any shoe stores in our town that do this, so I have to go to another city to get shoes.

No special tool needed, the adjustment is on the inside of the back wheel drums, there is a little inspection hole usually plugged with a rubber grommet, remove the grommet and use a flat screwdriver to adjust the brake shoes, you might need a torch to get you started, I changed my brake shoes about two weeks ago on my 1996 ford explorer, I had no handbrake and when I stripped the back drums to get to the brake shoes it was virtually metal on metal, no brake shoe left at all. let me know if this helps, cheers Rockie

Cushioned shoes are usually very flexible. They are not the best type for support. If you have high arches or neutral feet that don't need any special type of support you can buy cushioned walking shoes.

Apparently there are special shoes for squash. you can simply google squash shoes, and you will land on many options like this one: http://www.tennisnuts.com/shop/squash/squash-shoes/adidas-badminton-squash-indoor-shoes/adidas-squash-shoes.html

Whether or not to buy hiking shoes really depends on what kind of walking you plan to do and how often.
Hiking boots are helpful for rougher terrain and for gripping. If you plan to mostly walk on flat ground, you can consider getting good walking shoes instead.

No there is no law that tells you that you must wear special skateboarding shoes; however, skateboarding shoes are more durable than regular shoes and can withstand the abuse that skaters give them.

Hi,

According to Calvin Klein's website (http://www.calvinklein.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=3134553) they don't go smaller than a 5.5.

Have you ever tried Pretty Smaal shoes? They are a London based site that specializes in smaller shoe sizes and have a nice selection some of which are similar in style to the Macie.
