I'm allergic to it and it drove my feet crazy. I ended up just doing without, but since I have stubby, short toes of even length (no long middle toe) I generally got away with it. I can recall eking out a few extra classes from my shoes by using Future floor wax. Pour a capful into the box, swish to coat evenly, and leave in open air to dry. (Unless you felt like killing off a few brain cells.) Of course, that's been years ago. Wonder what the kids do now? I could never use lambswool. I’m allergic to it and it drove my feet crazy.
