i have a pair of shoes that squeezes the foot bone; my shoe length is a 5.5 but width is a 6. will this be able to stretch it out?

Yes. Spray your shoes and walk around the house for a few minutes. Repeat this once a day for a couple of days; it should work.

I've only used this product to stretch out the width of the shoe. It will work if it is a leather shoe. You spray the inside get a thick pair of socks, put it on for a few minutes and it fits! It will stretch it out more than you can believe! It's a great product.

It really depends on the shoe. I have a pair of those "five finger" shoes and I had no problem getting it on. So if your shoe isn't bulky at the top or the sole, you should get it on easily.

I'm not sure if you could get it angled into a tennis shoe. I've used it on the toe part of flats, but those flats didn't come up very far on my foot. I think the tongue and lacing on a tennis shoe might get in the way of this stretcher since it is angled for heels.

As the others have said in response to this question; yes. You have the ability to stretch it one of the two ways (length and width) or both at the same time. These also come with little black plastic pieces that you can place in the holes on the wood of the stretcher; this enables you to target stretch tough leather parts on your shoe.

Yes with a bit of care you should be able to stretch any type of shoes, the Bravo-fit has some peg tools that will give you targeted stretching just where needed.

Absolutely. If the toe area of your shoes are already tight, this might be too much. But otherwise, this is fine for any shoes.

I can't answer that. I have a small foot, size 6.5 and it wasn't big, but I don't think it was actually a "compression" fit for me. It really didn't help the issue I was having.

reach down into your boot may need shoe stretcher stuff and flex your wrist and knuckles up to insert. Hope that helps.

It is meant primarily for the toe area of a woman's high heel shoe. It works wonderfully in that capacity. I don't think it will work well to stretch the body of a shoe.

I didn't. But it may depend on the shoes material. The ones I've stretched have been leather or synthetic. I'd try stretching w/o spray and see how it works first.

Hello J., I am sorry that your shoes are not remaining stretched. I have used my stretcher on several pairs of shoes without a problem. The only thing that I do differently is that I do not gradually stretch the shoes; I open it very wide from the onset and leave for a few days. If you try this & it works great, if not using a stretch liquid (also sold on Amazon) along with the shoe stretcher should definitely do the trick!

It fits most of my shoes/boots except for maybe 1 or 2. It really depends on the shoe. The insert will go in anything but will it be too tight of a fit after is the question

It stretches leather, so it should stretch straps too. Just immediately put the shoes on and wear them until they dry (from the spray). Good luck.

I would think so, as long as you put gradual pressure on it, to avoid tearing the shoe. I used it on an 8 wide athletic / hiking shoe with excellent results, but tightened some, let is sit for 10-12 hr, then tried it and tightened some more.

Probably depends on the shoe and how much length you need in the lace. I am size 13 and cut off a lot of length when installing them on athletic shoes. I have other footwear (boots) they wouldn't be near as long as what I need. You can probably measure how much lace you need to make your shoes tight, add four to six inches or whatever you want to make them loose (remember, they are elastic, so even when tight they might stretch enough to pull the shoes on/off), and then compare to the 48 inches.

The stretchers are ajustable. You can dial the doohicky on the back of the screw to make them wider, and then pull the smaller piece of wood back to make them longer. So you don't have to buy them in sizes, just adjust them inside the shoe.

I would buy women size 7.5, since the goal is to widen the shoes, just need to make sure that the stretcher would fit in your existing shoes. The "large" show stretcher may be too big to fit inside your 7.5 shoes. hope this help.
