Does your new pair of leather shoes hurt? Hello bulbs!
They squeeze and hurt you so much that you can't wear them all day.
It would still be a shame not to wear them anymore, wouldn't it?
Fortunately, there is a simple and effective trick to relax the leather and make your shoes comfortable.
The trick is to put a cotton ball soaked in 70° alcohol on the tight spot . Watch:
- 70% alcohol
- cotton
- thin sock
1. Find where the shoe hurts (heel, instep, toes.)
2. Soak the cotton in 70° alcohol
3. Place it on the painful place.
4. Put on the thin sock to hold the cotton.
5. Put on your shoe as normal.
6. Keep your shoes with the cotton for 30 min until the cotton dries.
And There you go ! Thanks to this trick, you have softened your too tight leather shoes :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
The leather is softened and no longer hurts you. And all this without going through the cobbler box.
Keep the shoe well until the cotton is dry. Me, I put it on in the morning and I keep it on all morning.
Do this 2 or 3 times, until the leather takes the shape of your foot. Afterwards, you will definitely be at peace.
This tip works for shoes, boots, pumps, strappy sandals, and safety shoes.
The alcohol moistens the leather without damaging it and relaxes it very slightly.
The cotton creates a small bump just where it hurts, much like the shoemaker's lasts that expand leather.
You'll never hurt this place again.
And it works on leather and faux leather.
