Do your shoes hurt your feet? My Tip for Widening Them.
Are your shoes hurting in the back? Do they hug you?
Do you have pain in your heels? Are your feet and toes more and more painful?
It often happens with new shoes ...
But don't leave your prettiest pumps in the back of a closet!
Here is my tip for widening your shoes without going through the shoemaker box!
My tip for turning them into slippers!
I can see your horrified gaze from here, and yet ... This dancer's trick was given to me by a friend who swears by this comfort reflex.
Since I use this trick, no more sore feet behind or on the side, I can take out some pumps that I was desperate to put on or put back on!
The first thing to point out is that we are talking about leather shoes. This is a grandmother's remedy for making leather shoes softer.
As the other materials have not been tested, I cannot guarantee the same result.
How to do
1. I need a plastic bag
Of course, you are not going to put your shoes directly in the freezer, a question of leather protection and hygiene. So use a plastic bag, large enough to store your pair of shoes, which you close tightly.
2. Limited time in the freezer
You only leave your shoes in the freezer for a limited time, just long enough for them to freeze. It can range from 30 minutes to 1 hour. No more no less.
3. Result: ice cube effect and relaxation of the leather
You take out your shoes and put them on immediately. The ice cube effect is guaranteed, which can relieve you in the face of the hot summer months and the heavy legs that go with it.
The hardest part is to resist this gripping cold which, fortunately, does not last long. Your own body temperature warms the leather, which gradually relaxes and takes the shape of your foot. You put on real slippers at the end!
Do not be afraid to repeat this technique regularly to enlarge and soften your shoes as much as possible.
Goodbye shoemaker fees!
This trick allows me to save the shoemaker (from 5 to 10 € on average to ask to widen your shoes), but above all, my new post-sales shoes no longer make me suffer.
