Shoes are one of the most important parts of the wardrobe, if only because without it it is simply impossible to walk down the street. Surely every woman has a couple of shoes in her wardrobe, which are very beautiful and fit with your favorite blouse, but as for putting them on your foot, this is already a test, and even going somewhere is a real torture. However, it makes no sense to throw out a new thing or sell it to someone who has a smaller foot size. Today we will tell you how to stretch even the most tight shoes! There are several ways.

First of all, you need to soak everything inside the shoes with alcohol or, in extreme cases, with vodka. After you do this procedure, put on your shoes and try to stay in them for at least an hour. Yes, you will be uncomfortable and your feet will smell disgusting, but you will be able to make the hardest parts of your shoes softer and more pliable.

Another way is warm socks and a hair dryer. Put on winter socks, stick (even with force) your feet into the shoes, plug in the hair dryer and blow hot air on the shoes for ten to fifteen minutes. It will be hot for you, but for the sake of such beautiful shoes you can endure, isn't it?

By the way, if the shoes are made of leather, you can try to rub it with castor oil and leave it like that for several hours. Do not forget to wipe the oil thoroughly afterwards so that there are no streaks and greasy stains left!

Another way is candles. An ordinary candle, or rather, its main substance is paraffin. Rub your shoes with paraffin inside and leave like this overnight, preferably on the balcony. Then rinse everything thoroughly so that no wax remains on the walls of the shoes. Now your shoes will most likely never hurt you!

There is also a method that was used by our grandfathers, who served in the army. To do this, you need to cram wet paper into shoes or shoes and leave it there to dry until completely dry. After that, take out the swollen pieces (old newspapers are best) of paper and discard, and the shoes will become half a size larger.

Well, and, perhaps, the last of the simple ways: draw water into sealed bags, put it in shoes and ... put it in the freezer. Yes, it sounds (and looks) very extravagant, but it absolutely works. After a day in the freezer, your shoes will definitely be a size larger!

With the help of these simple life hacks, you will no longer have to regret wasting money on new shoes, because now you know how, in which case, to make them more comfortable and bigger. Tell your friends so they know too!
