No not really, you spent almost all the time talking about stretching width I needed to know how to stretch length. This particular stretcher and most others use PLASTIC heel and to me looks pretty weak, you mentioned stretching the heel out, is that how length is gained?

[@iperalta7777]

Yes worked perfectly!

[@bradfry5403]

Have just ordered that product ,so I'm glad to know it works , demonstration made it look easy to use.

[@DrTomBiernacki]

Hope your shoe works better!

Brad Fry did it work?

[@bradfry5403]

@@alexalopez8251 amazingly well , may need to use a spray on some materials.

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

A word of caution: do not overstretch these. They will break. Only stretch until you can't turn it anymore. Do not force it.

[@DrTomBiernacki]

Absolutely!

[@reeb9016]

I'd say that's basic advice for most things.

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

@@reeb9016 I'm talking about the stretchers. The shoes can handle it.

[@BobRooney290]

also, i think that spray is just rubbing alcohol and water.

How basketball shoes i had probem with 1 of myshoes.freak 5..it hurts may pinky toe

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

I have these exact ones. I keep my shoes stretched for at peast 6 months before wearing them. Because I need really wide shoes. But I like nice sneakers. Patience is key.

[@VictoriaVanderlinden]

6 months?????

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

@@VictoriaVanderlinden 6 months is not necessary. I'm just extra.

What are the ingredients, of the shoe stretcher spray? I wonder if it can be made at home? I think a 50-50 mix of isopropyl alcohol, and water will do the same thing. Just asking. Thanks for any response.

Does this work with soccer shoes ?

[@yassinetribak3609]

Hello Doctor . I'm from morocco . I want to consult you. I was injured 5 years ago in the middle of the plantar fascia and for that long it remained untreated. But now I examined the doctor and he saw that there were growths in the plantar fascia, which required surgical intervention. So what do you think? Is there a way to treat without surgery

[@DrTomBiernacki]

As much as we would love to be able to be able to do so, we are unable to provide individual advice without in person relationship. There are just too many risk factors on both ends to provide you the service you need. We will do our best to make videos for you in the future, but the advice cannot be individual. We hope you feel better in the future!

Will the effects be the same without the spray? I don’t have a the spray just the stretcher.

Alternative is use a spray with 50% alcohol and 50% water.

Wondering if I can use this on my knit yeezys and whether or not it will ruin it or leave stains?

[@DrTomBiernacki]

Probably not the greatest on knitted shoes, but I'm sure they might stretch a little, just be careful!

[@TheBoyAustin]

You can, I ordered them just for Yeezys specifically and they’re multiple videos on KZbin on how to use it properly. Happy I found this channel! Originally from Michigan too!

How do we stretch toe areas upward?

[@DrTomBiernacki]

There is a top piece that comes with the stretch device. Also simply changing and skipping using all lace holes can take pressure off of certain bumps on top

[@DrTomBiernacki]

Lastly the wet paper trick will stretch it upward as well.

Depends on the material but usually yes!

[@yanassi]

My hightop sneakers is about 4-4.5” tall, stretching the length from 11 to 11.5. The heel stretcher not looks like it it’s long enough to reach to the foot bed. Am i wrong?

[@lemagreengreen]

I'd say the max size for these are Size 10 UK (size 11 US) - in my experience, anyway. With size 10 (UK) starting you reach the very end of the screw length quite easily.

[@yanassi]

@@lemagreengreen thank you for the reply. I bought a Foot Fitter ML. It works nearly perfect. While it stretched my shoes excellently with a quality build, the problem i found was it’s poor design. For a half boot or high top sneaker i wished the mechanics was directed up the shoe stretcher ankle rather than out the back of the heel area. It effects the back of the shoe when it would not have if there was a vertical mechanism.

[@lemagreengreen]

@@yanassi Yeah I know exactly what you mean there, no good for boots really. I'm sure boot stretchers must exist but I've never seen one

So, why do SOOOO many Americans have a lisp when pronouncing 'sh' sounds and other 's' sounds? It's very, very common. Is it a learned thing or is it becusee of the American obsession with correcting people's tooth alignment even when not entirely necessary.
