This hack actually does work I couldn’t believe it but it did work for me.

[giacomo]

Use hairdryer on the narrow part
Put feet with 2 pairs of thick socks inside
Stand up with your weight on the tip of the feet
Wait until shoes feel cold
Repeat 2 to 3 times
Works best with leather and eva sandals

I called 5 shoe repair shops who said fabric won't stretch. With a salsa class coming up & red marks on top of my toes just from trying on the shoes, I tried the steam method with socks jammed in the toes.
Helped, but not enough. I found this freezing method elsewhere so they're in the freezer now :) While waiting, I turned to YouTube. I have high hopes!
Dance shoes tight in the toes DON'T need that much water. Half fill a zip lock bag (expell the air), stuff the toes, put in plastic bag & freeze. PUT 2 zip lock bags in there in case of a leak!!
If this isn't enough, another method is to rub alcohol inside the tight parts & wear to stretch. Happy dancing!

I'm gonna try this. For some reason I only have problems with vans fitting tight. They feel good in the store and hope they'll stretch after a while but they don't. This is why I never but shoes online

Use a better bag. That’s a sandwich bag, get a freezer bag lol

[gaberoyalll]

[panikk]

damn did not expect kevin periera. i was just looking to stretch my new shoes a little wider and i got a AOTS throwback

[ziwhwvq]

wow 5 min meals mean 50 weeks on the treadmill

I need to try this! My new pair of leather keds has one heel area that digs into my heel and it is quite painful but the size is perfect!

[masaharumorimoto]

HAHAHA I didn't think me googling this would lead to Kevin but OK!!!

[Mel-qrob]

I'm imagining her bag of water being thrown onto expensive lighting/camera gear

[stig]

That laugh is why we don’t see Kevin perarra anymore on live TV. 😅😅😅

This hack actually does work!! Used it for a pair of cosplay heels that were too tight around my bunions (I have horrid dancer feet lol)!

My bags did leak in the freezer and I have to wait for them to melt completely, but I’ll try to update when I see what happens to the shoes after they dry!

Freezing artificialor natural leather can crack or spoil it. Better to use a shoe tree.

[aliciatillery]

Okay!! Note to self, don’t try this method.. 🧐

[series]

Piano man42 the master of common sense uses a water bottle squeeze out some water don’t pour it out put the top on very tight you’ll creates air pocket in the bottle jam the bottle into the show making sure the cap is down in the shoe at the heel then freeze

[xterra]

Sure, blame the shoe. Btw I dont think it's funny.

[joeo]

Throw it out and buy a new one
Broke ass me: 😢😢

[lady]

I had heard this method before.Unfortunately, it didn't my shoes got wet. 😭

[jujubee]

Unless you want wet shoes go for it. I double zipped locked with 1/2 cup water and it exploded .. wet Vans shoe soles not good!
