Any-one any idea on how to stretch/widen a pair of womens shoes? I have done the paper one (putting in wet n/paper & letting dry naturally) but to no avail.
Thanks anyway.

    Purchase a professional quality shoe stretcher from your local shoe repair shop or a high quality shoe store. For ladies’ shoes, the stretchers go by shoe size and are designed for both low heel and high heel shoes, with bunion attachments. Get a bottle of liquid shoe stretch to spray on your shoes while using the wooden shoe stretcher. If your shoes are leather, you’ll have greater success. Consider taking the shoes to a professional shoe repair shop. They often use a stretching machine to apply specific pressure and heat precisely where the shoe hurts ‘ including length, toe raise, instep stretching and so on. On occasion, they’ll speed up the process with a leather softening agent.
