> But from a global resource consumption perspective, it's far preferable to re-use good shoes

But they were not good shoes. They had tracking devices put into them. Full stop.

Imagine putting tracking devices into children's shoes and then having them "reused" like this.

Yes, reuse is great. And if that's what they said they were going to do, awesome. But that's not what happened here, and exposes a very real problem.

You can put a tracking device in anything and give it to a goodwill right now. This feels like a very strange angle to take. Especially when these shoes traveled accross countries.
