How to move shoes on fingers
How often, after buying a shoe, does it show a little jerky? Yeah, almost all the time. Human feet are not perfect and shoe pads are standard. What to do? How to carry shoes that are slightly tight on the fingers? Do not remove the same new shoes or boots in the closet.
general rules
It should be borne in mind that the stretch shoe, which is slightly narrow on the fingers, can only be half the size. If you really try, then greatness. Not anymore. And even then, it is impossible to name this process according to the rules. The shoe only takes the shape of your foot and eliminates discomfort in the area of your toe.
There are several common ways to correct the situation at home. However, it is not suitable for all materials. It is best to stretch the natural leather and fabric. The most “hard” materials are rubber and artificial leather. For stretch marks, consider all options in detail.
Alcohol and alcohol-containing liquids
A method known to our grandmothers. You will need:
alcohol (about 40-50 ml)
shoe
thick but not thick socks
legs
The procedure is very simple. It is necessary to pour half of the alcohol (or cologne) in the shoe. Second half soaked socks. Then you need to wear shoes, boots, shoes or anything you have and walk around the house for a while.
Council. Stretching time can be used wisely in the kitchen.
Usually, 1.5-2 hours is enough to cover your fingers with your fingers to achieve the desired shape and stop pressing. You just need to walk, not sit, or even reach out. Otherwise you will not be confused.
Some sources recommend using this method with caution. Allegedly, alcohol can damage materials and shoes may deteriorate. Dare agree. Because such an amount of liquid cannot cause any harm.
Meanwhile, the same sources strongly recommend the use of thick socks. Even 2 pairs. And here we do not agree. Just getting new shoes with thick socks is quite problematic. Because after such executions your shoes will turn into galoshes and clap your feet. Or worse, the material may simply explode due to excessive tension.
Council. There are also recommendations for moistening the outer surface of the shoe with alcohol. But for some reason, it doesn't. And really, what is the use of such a procedure? Especially if it is a pair of high-quality leather shoes without wetting. Or rubber boots, for example.
ice
Another option is to stretch the shoes with a little tight fingers. You will need:
Straight cold water (even tap free)
One pair of very dense packages (completely without holes or undamaged)
shoe
elastic or tight rope
Frost on the street (normal home refrigerator freezer fit)
What do you have to do to get your shoes back? It is necessary to push the bags onto the shoes or shoes. Then carefully straighten. Pour cold water into it. Not up to the package. And too much, the shoes, the packs, were filled to the middle of the pads. Or the ankle, the shoes or the boots.
Now packaged tightly in water. After all procedures, shoes are exposed to frost on the balcony. Or definitely put it in the freezer.
Council. For hygiene reasons, we recommend that you wrap a few newspapers, films or another bag.
In this position, the shoes are left from 18 hours to the day. What happens when this happens? The water freezes, the ice expands and stretches the skin.
After that, it will only be necessary to bring the steam to heat, to break the ice. And you can safely collect new clothes. Meanwhile, this method only works on natural materials. However, it should be borne in mind that patent leather cannot withstand such treatment at low temperatures.
How are rubber shoes distributed?
Rubber boots or sneakers are very tight on the fingers. This is not a problem. Popular wisdom has long discovered a way to stretch such shoes. You will need:
large pelvis to fit single width
hot water, about + 75-85 ° С
thick socks
A pair of thick film bags
legs
The procedure is as follows. They're wearing thick socks on their feet. This design is necessary to avoid burning the skin. Now very hot water is poured into the basin. And put your shoes on. The rubber boot is fully immersible. For sneakers, it is recommended to heat only the sole without affecting the fabric sole of the upper part.
Warm-up time is approximately 15-20 minutes. Now you need to take your shoes out of the water and put them on your feet without waiting for the rubber to cool. Then he continues to walk in boots or sneakers for only one hour. During this time, the shoes in the area of the fingers are slightly stretched, cool down and take the shape of a foot.
Council. Do not mix rubber with polyurethane foam. Shoes with a sole will not undergo high temperature testing. It'il become a galosh.
Helpful advice
Some sources recommend rinsing shoes with boiling water. Allegedly, it will come after that. Absolute nonsense. From this treatment the shoes only get wet. But the leg doesn't fit.
Another trick of fooling: Fill your shoes tightly with wet newspapers and let them dry, but don't heat up. And how dry will such a structure be? A week? Moon? If it's not hot. Also, the shoes are not stretched.
