Wearing new or uncomfortable heels can make an evening out feel like a real struggle, but there are ways to stretch them out and make them more comfortable, even if you bought them right before an event. Follow these simple tricks, and you’ll be able to dance all night without worrying about sore feet, blisters, or tightness.
1. Use a Blow Dryer to Stretch the Material:
How to Do It:
Put on a pair of thick socks and slide them on before wearing your new heels.
Use a blow dryer on the hottest setting and direct the heat onto the areas of your heels that feel tight.
Move your feet around as you apply the heat to loosen up the material.
Keep the heat on the shoes for 2-3 minutes, then remove the socks and let the shoes cool off while still on your feet. The heat helps soften the material, stretching it just enough to fit comfortably.
Why It Works: Heat softens leather, suede, and synthetic materials, making it more pliable and easier to stretch.
