Which juniors have feet that are only size 3 or 3.5? :-)

JanetT:

That's why they're on sale! They're the only ones left in that model, and they want to get a little money for them, so they're priced really low.

I suspect they wouldn't be comfortable for long outside of track conditions.

size 3 is a boy's size

i bet these would make a decent pair of o-shoes....
perhaps too hot in warm weather...
too bad no adult sizes

Not at that price, anyway...

I bet they'd fall apart really fast if used in the woods. Just a guess.

Try these! I have two pairs and they're really good.

I will second that! Those are great for sprints, but don't have thick soles, so be careful for rocks.
