How To Break In Your Shoes With NO PAIN!

[@LivingInTheShade]

Now this a great hack. Also, if anyone is breaking in shoes if you rub the inside of the back of the shoe with a dry bar of soap it forms a barrier so the shoe does not rub against your heel and prevents blisters.

I’ve never heard of rubbing the shoe with a bar of soap - but if it works for you, that’s great 👍🏾

​@@FashionWizardry Definitely works an ex colleague told me, an older woman, I was so shocked it worked.

That flap on the laces is usually stiched almost halfway, try cutting both sides all the way down, the tongue of the shoe will be looser making the shoe fit better, that's what I did with mine, never had a blister since

Thanks for this tip!🫶🏽

I was going to get some but after the cost of the shoes, I needed to save *some* money 🥹🥹

I officially gave up trying to break in these boots I got off clearance online. I really want to wear them but they won't zip up my calf. Any thoughts? 😅😅😅 Loved the relationship comment. I definitely dealt with that some years ago.

I hesitated for a long time in getting the boots because of all the horror stories I heard about breaking them in so I heavily researched on how to do it and I swear the silicone sleeve has been a life saver! I went out in the boots once for about an hour without the sleeve and I was already blistering 😭😭 they’re hard af to break in but they’re worth it once broken in 🫶🏽🫶🏽 I hope you give yours a chance again (especially with this hack) and that you’re able to wear them out :) On the relationship comment, same girl. Same 🥹 Been there, done that and I now consciously choose and seek peace in most aspects of my life 🤌🏽❤️

There's adjustable wood blocks you can purchase to loosen shoes up, you can buy them, but shoemakers have them! You can go to a local shoe maker and ask them. They really are the experts and it's usually done for very cheap!

We ride Harleys so for boots run hot water in bathtub and stand in it till leather is satutated well and wear till leather is dry . BOOM 💥 BROKE IN LIKE THEY ARE YEARS OLD

[@FashionWizardry]

Oh wow! Thanks for sharing this. I’ve never heard of it/ tried it but it sounds like it would work 😄

[@AndreaKing-z7w]

What about the toes

[@FashionWizardry]

The thick socks help with that
