wow, thats a new one....
short of covering them with something transparent or, horror of horrors, removing them I don't know. perhaps you could replace them with something that looks similar but doesn't rub?
Yep, leave it to me to uncover yet another uncomfortable physical manisfestation of a seemingly harmless dance hobby. Gah.

I think I might end up removing them, I hadn't actually thought of that. It's not like anybody is really going to notice them, considering where they are.
Thanks!
