Several Qs: Shoe Fixes
Permalink Closed


The below pairs either stretched after I wore them out and now they're too big.  The last pair is too snug.  Can y'all recommend any fixes to my shoe probs? Please help.


1. Steve Madden Peep Toe Pumps fit about 1 size too big.



2. BCBG Peep Toe Pumps fit about 1/2 size too big.



3. Steve Madden Closed Toe wedges, fit about 1/2 size too small.  I've tried breaking them in, only to end up w/killer blisters on my ankles.  Can shoes be stretched professionally?



TIA!

shoes can be stretched professionally, but i think it really depends on how soft the leather is. i've tried it with two pair of shoes. one came out nicely, the other didn't stretch a milimeter.

For the pairs that are too big, I'd recommend some Foot Petals.  I just put both of these in a pair that's a little too big and it's worked like a charm.


These will make the whole shoe fit tighter:



 
 
And these will help prevent the heel from sliding up and down:
