Brilliant shoe stretchers
I bought a pair of ECCO boots in a sale ( only but ECCO ) I take size 42, these were 41, and I loved the style etc; Ecco usually give a wide fit, and I felt comfortable in them, but as I have a bunion, this caused discomfort in the boot. Reading that these stretchers can even stretch up a size beyond your usual, I decided to give them a trial. After two days being stretched ( decided to do both boots, although only one needed stretching ) I was amazed at the results, The boots were indeed stretched and the bunion was just slightly painful after wearing boots all day. Decided to give them another stretch for two more days, one week later, absolute comfort all day, I bought a spray of leather softner as well, this I assume helped the stretching process. I have knocked off a 'star' rating because one of the wooden stretchers split. I glued it back together, and these stretchers are ready again for any more shoe/boots I might find on the tight side. A good buy at a VERY reasonable price. Must point out, the boots are only a little higher up the ankle than shoes, for 'high' boots, I think a pair designed for higher boots would be required.
