How to break in new shoes with just one common appliance

Who doesn’t love buying new shoes?! They can feel great in the shop, but often when you get them home, it’s a whole other story – they’re sometimes too tight and give you blisters!

Instead of taking them back or just living with the pain, there’s a very cheap and easy way to stretch your new shoes.

Simply grab out your hairdryer and a pair of super thick socks.

Steps

1. Place on the thick socks and pry on the shoes.
2. Aim a hot hairdryer at the tight areas whilst flexing and stretching as it blows.
3. Keep the shoes on while they cool down, then go for a walk.
4. If the shoes are still tight without the socks, keep going with the hairdryer!

Do you have any other ways to stretch your shoes?
