Sending boots to Santiago

[Caligal]

I am planning my next Camino, CF Pamplona to Sarria, then train to Porto to do the CP. I am wearing my boots to Sarria. Having read about the Cobblestone in Portugal I want to wear trailrunner type shoes on the CP. After reaching Santiago I’m heading to Muxia so I’d want to have my boots, but I don’t want to carry them on the CP. I’ve seen posts about sending things to Casa Ivar, could i post my boots in Sarria and pick them up 2weeks later in Santiago? How would I go about doing that? What is Casa Ivars address? Is that where I would go to get them? Thanks

I would just skip the boots altogether. I haven't found boots to be necessary on the Francés, Norte or the walk to Finisterre/Muxia.

I muddled thru the whole boot/shoe debate last Camino went with boots, never regreted my decision. My ? Is strictly about mailing them.

Yes, you can either send them to Ivar. I mailed my trail runners to Ivar last year when I decided to switch to sandals only.
