Shoe Stretcher Men 4-way Shoe Expander Widener Shoe Tree Shape for Wide Feet

I now know that my foot likes my correct length in Wide or E width, or else a half size longer in D. But the half size longer isn't exactly right either. I have the same shoe in, Santoni Brendan, in Black, 10D (which is comfy but slightly too long) and Brown, 9.5D, with is correct length but too narrow. Good leather. Worth saving. The black has always felt great, the Brown fit me better except for my little toe rubbing against it ... but not enough to make me throw them out, just enough to make me not wear them much anymore.. I am not trying to lengthen the shoe, just make room for my little toe. And this stretcher worked great fort that. How I did it: I added the black knob into the hole hole furthest from the front, and inserted the stretchers. First though, I took a cap full of rubbing alcohol and 3 capfulls of water into a little mixture... took a cotton ball and rubbed a little of that alcohol/water mix onto the spot on the shoe where my little toe rubbed. Both outside the shoe and inside. Then I inserted the stretcher... even without turning the widtch knob, that spot on the shoe was bulging out when I put the stretcher in. Still, I turned the width knob like 3 or 4 turns. I did not turn the length knob much at all, just enough to press the stretcher into my shoe as far as it could go. Next morning, these 9.5D are just as comfortable as my 10D, but also slightly better fitting in terms of length. I have read that all stretchers generallly do much better with width than length, and this makes sense ... you can't stretch a leather sole, and the upper is stitched to the sole, so yeah, the shoe isn't going to get longer, if at all, but width, yeah this brand of stretcher and I assume all stretchers are fantastic. PS I called my local shoe repair and they wanted $35 per pair of shoes (I live near the ocean, so everything is expenwsive relative the the middle of the country). I have two pairs needing more room for my little toe, so that would have been $70 plus the hassle of turning them in and picking them up. This was under $20, and would work for a lot of pairs of shoes. Holy cow anything needing manual labor these days costs and arm and a leg... almost cheaper to just buy something new that doesn't need labor. I bought on ebay some $300 wool charcoal slacks for $40, and just shortening the leg with cuffs was $28. Stuff is cheap nowadays, but labor is expensive. But this was a solution so the the manual labor was free (me), and the stretchers cost next to nothing.

Great product. Works amazingly

A good buy for the money. Works as it should. Fast shipping.

I wasn't too sure about being plastic but I do know years ago I had a wood shoe stretcher and it's split. This thing is heavy duty It works exceptionally well at widening the shoes. It does work better on leather than on synthetics. I can get a lot better stretch with these than I could with wooden. I actually inserted a Stick inside the handle to make it easier to turn but to really tighten it down. Would I buy again? Absolutely,But I have the feeling I'm not gonna need a new shoe stretcher for years. Buy them you won't regret it

There are so many options out there for stretching and widening your shoes. This is a solid piece that is easy to use with attachments I can use later should I need more adjustment. We used to have an old wooden one, but it became too clumsy to use. This is an easy-to-use, good-quality item. I have already stretched and widened two pairs of shoes that I purchased, specifically for this, and it has worked wonders—no more pain after wearing them for a short while. I am happy that it covers the advertised sizes.

They made a huge difference with my 11's and SB dunks. My picky toe would get raw from those particular pairs but after just a few hours with these in, no more pain.

Worked for a week and did stretch a pair of sneakers. Broke after a week and won’t tighten

This shoe stretcher is very durable. It has been used a TON and still looks and functions as new. Stretches the shoe as expected.

calzo grande para el promedio en méxico (30) por lo que me es difícil conseguir zapatos en las tiendas de por acá, aunque a veces encuentro modelos que me agradan y los compro aunque me lastimen, con este aparato ya no más. está increíble, tenía unos mocasines que sólo use una vez y que me dolieron mucho al usarlos y jamás los volví a usar, puse estos extensores en cada uno, los estirñe al máximo, coloquè los pequeños aditamentos para acomodar los dedos chiquitos y crecer el empeine y lo dejé por 24 horas... mágia, el zapato me quedó sin esfuerzo cuando antes me había costado muchísimo ponermelo. los compré originalmente para unos zapatos nuevos sin ninguna puesta, que también me apretaron al comprarlos pero como los necesitaba para una bodam no podía andar buscando mucho ya que no tenía tiempo. sin problemas ese día. voy a comprar otros dos pares, a mi mujer también le encantaron.

Au début j’étais sceptique, mais je l’ai utilisé sur mes chaussures et celles de ma conjointe, très efficace

Funcionan muy bien y son de materiales muy resistentes

MUY BUEN PRODUCTO Y COMO SOY DE DAMA PERO DE PIE GRANDE ME SIRVIO MUCHISIMO

I find it puts pressure on the toe but for the heal to only puts pressure at the top of my boots. I wish it would do both, I will have to find away on my own.
