One of the biggest issues today when buying new shoes is the adjustment process the foot has to make to the shoes, and vice versa.
There are several home remedies often used to soften shoes and conform them to the shape of your feet. Some of the most common methods include soaking shoes in alcohol with a cotton ball or placing them in a bag and freezing them for 24 to 48 hours. However, all of these methods can actually damage your shoes—especially when dealing with suede, nubuck, high-quality leather, patent leather, or satin—causing material deformation, cracks, or torn seams.
To safely soften and stretch any type of footwear, boots, ankle boots, sneakers, or hiking boots that cause foot pain, it is recommended to anticipate potential rubbing areas to avoid blisters.
The ideal solution for gradually adjusting shoes to your feet is Tarrago Shoe Stretch—a shoe-softening foam that helps footwear mold to the shape of your foot!
How to use: In the afternoon or evening, when your feet are more swollen, put on your new shoes for about 30 minutes. Simply spray a small amount of product inside the shoes, put them on immediately, and walk around for a few minutes so they conform to your foot.
Tarrago Shoe Stretch expands and softens leather, allowing the shoe to comfortably fit your foot. It is designed for all types of leather, suede, and nubuck. Since the product is colorless, there is no need to worry about stains or marks after application. It leaves no odor, feels very fresh, and is safe for your skin. It can be used on all kinds of leather, suede, and nubuck shoes, sneakers, or casual footwear.
