On the one hand, buying new shoes is always a joy. But on the other hand, the need to wear out shoes for an indefinite amount of time is terrifying. Novate.ru offers to ease the pain by applying an effective method that will help to stretch shoes at home quickly and effortlessly.
The beautiful shoes that you bought from the store just a few hours ago are not as comfortable at first as you thought when you tried them on. It can be not only a little tight, but it can also rub a lot, which causes serious inconvenience while walking. To wear your shoes without feeling discomfort, you need to spread them. And, as you know, this procedure is very long, unpleasant, tiring, and sometimes painful.
However, it is not at all necessary to put on several socks and walk in new shoes around the house, trying to stretch them at least a little, or to carry the shoes to the master so that he does it with the help of special tools. Our method is much cheaper, more convenient and more practical.
How to stretch shoes at home?
All you need is clean shoes, water, and two whole plastic bags (check for holes before using them). The first step is to take a shoe or boot and place a bag in it so that it occupies the entire area of the shoe from the inside. Next, you need to pour water into each bag so that it fills to the brim (when it freezes, the water expands and gradually stretches the shoes). Take your shoes carefully and place them in the freezer for 24 hours.
Advice: After the shoes are in the refrigerator, place a towel or any other object that will slightly lift the shoes under your heels under your heels. This is necessary so that the water in the bags drains into the sock and stretches this area as much as possible.
After the set time has elapsed, remove the boots from the freezer and wait 20-30 minutes until the ice melts. After that, remove the package (this shouldn't give you any trouble) and check if the given method worked.
If you find that the procedure did not bring the desired result, do not be discouraged. It is better to repeat it several times until the shoes stretch to the desired size. Don't worry - the time spent in the freezer will in no way affect the quality and durability of the boots, no matter what material they are made of: leather or leatherette. Only the size will change.
