mom would literally slap me left n right if she saw my shoes inside the freezer

Me: comes to see how to stretch shoes
Me: lost in the comments😂
Me too🤣
*walks into kroger* "Hi, do you have any size 11 potatoes?"
LMAO
😂😂😂😂😂
Joseph Brewington lol
IM DEAD!! 😂😂😂
Laughing so hard
a good bit of advice if you're going on a date is to remove the potato from your shoes. i've learned that women don't respect that. it's also super hard to walk.
yes. put the potato in your pants. the front. not the back.
Montel Killman this is one of my favorite UA-cam comments, ever. Happy Halloween 2017 :)
I keep forgetting 🤦
M Shef put in both
Really, all the girls love my potato and it is easy to walk around. You need to find better girls
I put two pairs of relatively thick socks on and then proceeded to use the blow dry method and it worked really well on my faux leather shoes. I recommend it.
do we need to repeat the process or do it just once?
you should only really need to do it once, but if your not happy with the result you can always do it again.
+XDLadyHydrangea thank u
Was looking for this since she said leather and was unsure if it'd work on faux ones :D
Sorry I paid 11$ to have my shoes stretched and dude did absolutely nothing on my shoes. They're still so tight! Do you think they'll work on Louboutins? Please thank you
I used the thick socks and hairdryer method and it really worked. I bought a brand new pair of heeled loafers on ebay but they felt really tight, especially around the toes, so much so that I could feel them curling in at the sides - very painful! The loafers are leather lined but the outer lining is a synthetic material and quite stiff so I was worried about using this method and unintentionally ruining them but I ensured the hairdryer (on full heat) was kept about 5cm away from the outer area of the shoe. I used this method about 2-3 times and walked around the house with the socks still on as the shoes cooled down, took the socks off and the shoes fit absolutely perfectly!
How long dod u do it for? I have pointy toe leather booties and i did 30 seconds on one foot then 30 second on the other. Each foot had total of 1.5 minutes

Did you have to repeat the process every time you wore the shoes?
To increase shoe size, I found that the following routine is successful: 1. Wet some paper towels; 2. Stuff the paper towels into the shoe(s) in question; 3. Tie the shoes securely in order to increase the freezing pressure; 4. Place the shoe(s) in the freezer over night; 5. Remove the shoes in the morning and allow the towels to defrost; 6. Remove the paper towels;7. Try on the shoe(s); and, finally; 8. Repeat as necessary (which most likely will be the case) until the shoe(s) fits. Freezing causes the water in the paper towels to expand putting great pressure on the inside of the shoe increasing it's size. By tying the shoe, this pressure is increased. I successfully used this technique on a new shoe which I bought which was too small.
Ik this is years later but I bought some basketball shoes that were tight and this helped me thank u
her voice is identical to Lindsay Lohan's
And they look alike
I thought she sounded like Drew Barrymore.😂
This chick is way more articulate😂 and minus the raspy smokiness LiLo has. But I love Lilo she needs to make a come back
I was totally trying to figure out why I recognized her voice thank you was driving me crazy, she just needs to smoke a carton a day to Match her rasp!! 💨💨💨💨😂😂😂😂
for those of you whose parents won't let you put your shoes in the freezer just put the shoes in a plastic bag first
Right I was thinking the same thing, and I use a soft brush w a lil soap especially on the soles sometimes wipe them down with alcohol after all clean. I’m super OCD though like do you guys leave your plates on the counter, in the sink or dishwasher after you cook and eat?? Well I have a way nice Bosch dishwasher but mostly hand wash and dry everything right after I’m done eating 🍽 it makes my wife laugh but she never has had to do dishes in 11 years! I own my own house and put whatever the hell I want in the damn freezer!😂😂🖕🖕
For those? Are there parents that allow it

Duuuuuuude!! The blow dryer and sock trick WORKS!! Mind blown 🤯
I bought two pairs of shoes and they said they were my size but when they arrive they were too tight. So... here I am.
Samee
Sameeeee
Did any of this "tricks" work?
I forgot about this but I used a hair dryer to loosen my leather heel shoes I bought and they fit like a dream now! I tried something with ice with other shoes but it didn’t do anything. It could be because they have fabric outside the leather so the fabric wouldn’t loosen.
Ahhhh sameee it’s so annoying
When I buy my shoes I take a lot of old newspaper and apply liquid shoe stretch. Then I form them into a ball, place them in a plastic bag (apply more shoe stretch in my shoes), stuff into my shoes for about three days or longer.
Quick and straight to the point. Good!
Thank you! Ice is STILL in them, but I've tried them on and they seem to be a whole half size bigger! I'm putting them back in till tomorrow when I must wear them! 💖
I tried the blow dryer trick with my Converse, and it worked really well!!!
Just did it rn on my converse play series and it's not working 🥺
I tried the hair dryer/sock thing and it worked brilliantly! I had my shoe in a shoe stretcher for days and it didn't do much. This method was fantastic. Thanks for the tip.
Did it work long term?
This is so useful! I got a pair of shoes from my nan but they were too small, they're so nice though so I'm glad this worked
omg the blow dryer one really worked with my shoes. thank u 😁
Kretel Kruze rttttrp
Does it work for suede shoes
Thick sock trick worked on my desert boots thank you so much !!
Most definitely trying the shoe stretching method on my leather loafers. It's the best option imo.
the blow drier one really worked! i'm so happyyyy! ty
The bag in the freezer worked for me... now I have cool toes and since I put koolaid in the water - ice pops for summertime. =D
do you know if this method works for leather shoes too? i mean would it damage them or is it safe?
Lika Aprilia Hey Lika: Seriously, if you want to stretch your leather shoes, best way is to go to walmart and buy a shoe stretcher for $9.97. That way you have control over how far they are stretched. Don't overstretch them... do a little at a time, and put some conditioner on them. The ice works for boots - uggs, bearpaws. Good luck! ♥
how long you put them in?
juliadennehy overnight
juliadennehy 😂
Don't use a hot blow dryer it melts the glue and the soles come off.
Yeah and after awhile it’ll just go back to how it was
I just love this so much
Needed this! Thank you!
SUCH great tips. I wore my tight leather loafers with very thick socks for a few hours around the house, and I didn't even have to use a blow dryer to get results. my shoes actually fit without hurting now. AMAZING HACK! THANKS so much.
trying this
I bet that was painful 😣 trying to walk around in the shoe that's already tight, so not doing that and don't have a blow-dryer either🤔👀🤔 Thanks anyhow.
@@jacquelynjones2932 nah not painful if it's about 1 size off. Really works.
Wow, i just bought a pair of five tens online and it was a half a size smaller and shipped from the UK. You just saved me a load of shipping costs! I used the thick socks and blow-dry method. Altho i used a heat gun in the lowest setting. Thanks for making this video!
I tried putting on the heavy sweat socks, with some shoes I ordered from Michael Kor... it worked!!!! Amazing these are some shoes I evidently didn’t want too return and I’m soooo glad I don’t have now!
Thank you!!!!
How did you do it? My shoes are precisely from MK
Will it work for sneakers Canvas?
it be nice if you could hear what she saying instead you hear that music.
+bobbie bateman Yes, and the music is horrible...
+bobbie bateman You can clearly hear her voice, the music's not even that loud..
+bobbie bateman the video wasn't even worth watching
soelawst s aww
such a weird music choice too
The blowdryer method really workd ...thank you so much
Great vid!!!!! Informative!!!!
OMG Thank you very much! I was skeptical when I buy shoes because I'm always around size 5 or 6 because the length of my feet is for size 6 but it is too thin that I sometimes wear a size 5. So when I tried the shoe in the store it was fine and a little too fit but when I tried the size 6, it was too big for my feet because of its width so I bought the size 5. But when I wore it at home, thats when I realize that it is too tiny it terms of length for my feet.... anyway, I just used the heat method with my newly bought leather shoes and it is awesome! thank you so so much!!
This is the same exact problem I have right now😁 (sometimes I'm a 5, sometimes a 5 and a half or a 6:/) I guess I'll definitely try out the technique then !👍
If you dint mind me asking what size are you now, just curious 2 years later
Will it be work for sneakers?
@@aresol6487 nd I'm curious 7 years later
Great vid thanks a lot!
Thank you!!
Great video!!!
I have got this leader 👡, i bought it quite tight as the sell person said it will get bigger after i wear it for sometime, but it was so painful to wear after one hour. Then next day i went to the shoe shop to stretch out, they stretched it out and it was comfortable but after awhile it became the original size again. Now i am going to try this dryer hack. I hope it will stretch out permanently.
The blowdryer method was the best for me.
I used the blow dryer and it worked. Thank you.
The blow-dryer really worked ..Thanks a bunch
very helpful, thanks
New leather shoes one was tight on top bridge foot did the blow dryer method , it works great thank you
Non leather shoes: put wet sand in a plastic bag(not soggy wet) and push it all the way to the toes area, leave overnight and they should widen if the toes area is the one you want widened
Hair dryer worked for me, thank you so much
Can you do the ice method also with cork wedges? Or will it damage them?
I will try the ice one on my converse!
i'll look into it! xx
it worked IMA subscribe thank uuuuu
Im hoping one of these tips is going to help, I bought an absolutely stunning pair of sparkly pumps but got the quite a bit too small, re ordered them in a bigger size but I think they are lost in the post so I'm left with this stunning pair of too small shoes so I'm trying the zip lock bag in the freezer tip tonight maybe it will help but I'm not sur cos they are litteraly like 2cm too small for my feet. Which isnt a problem I usually have as I have quite small feet (im a size 36 in french sizes). Anyways it would be amazing if your tips help cos I dont feel like buying the same pair of shoes 3 times lol
Great information! Music is slightly too much though. Thanks for putting this together!
Excellent
The bag and freezer worked for me Thank You 😃😃😃
***** the heat and thick sock worked on my football shoes
My left foot is a bit bigger than the right so my one new balance shoe hurts my foot a bit from the width of my foot, hopefully the method works! I just popped my shoe in the freezer, going to wait overnight and see the results!
i tried the blow dryer trick it really works Thanks 👍
Is it okay to remove the cushioning from running shoes if it is a bit tight ? Please reply ..
great tips. I am about to give away my Ecco brand new shoes cause too tight when reach home. At hte shop its fit. Now this video save me. Thanks a lot!
Thank you
The blow dry method worked! I can't believe it! good job
Anita Newton did you use leather conditioner on it afterward?
Will the blow dry method work on suede sandals too?
The Blow dryer and wearing thick socks worked to expand my jimmy choos leather ankle booties. I was scared the heat would ruin the leather but it didnt.
can i use the blowdrying thing on timberlands?
I wanna do the freezer one but my parents would be so confused and scream at my for putting my shoes in the freezer😂
Just tell them that you found a way to save the shoes/money and that’ll put them on your team.
how about running shoes with that zoom kinda thing, will it damage the thread inside the ultra-responsive zoom air?
wow Thank you
can you use the blowdrying technique on a pair of nmd?
Earlier i bought 2 leather shoes from same online shop and they fit well. Then recently bought a new one of same size but its a bit tight. As its leather hoping it will stretch
hi would this work on my firetrap boots leather. thanks
For the freezing trick should it be on top in the cooling part of the fridge or the freezer part
Wow this helped alot thanks
The hairdryer??
Which method would work best for faux saude ankle boots?
That's NOT a shoe stretcher but rather a SHOE TREE! A shoe tree helps keep the shape of the shoe when not worn. A shoe stretcher has a crank at the end that makes the shoe stretcher expand.
+Kevin P they clearly didnt do their homework because there are different stretchers for different types of shoes... smh
My thoughts exactly
Another couple of "pretty" talking heads. What a couple of morons. That is obviously a cedar shoe tree which has no mechanism to stretch a shoe.
I have some summer shoes that turned out a bit tight, I put a shoe stretcher and put them under the sun for a few hours, it gets really hot here, above 40, it works too.
does it work with heeellsss???
Awh I wish this channel uploaded videos every week or month. 😢 I would love to work with them 💖
Does the dryer method work on shoes main out of fabric
I'll deff. Try
I have done the freezer method but.. U want to put a freezer bag inside shoe first. Tilt the shoe upward and then fill half way. Then put shoe upright in your fridge. If u put water in bag first then put in shoe the water will spill out.
question Can it work with slipers
yes it does!
Hairdryer method really worked with my adidas!
It actually worked. Thanks💐🤩
Would these work for shoes that are one size smaller?
These seem like great tips for stretching out the toe area of shoe, but what about the back of the shoe? I've had too many shoes cause bleeding or blistered heels!
Would any of these work with huaraches ?
Plenty of shoe stretchers in women sizes. Both for flats and high heels. Isn't that a shoe tree you're holding there? Just clarifying. Usually shoe stretchers have handles and knobs.
Does that freeze method work for boots?
does the ice method work on this shoe called "foamposites", cause the material of the shoe is different from all these shoes
Your first stepped was the solution for my leather shoes thx
Do any of these methods work on converse?
Stephany S for converse, I found that loosening the laces will help.
My daughters show was too tight and now it’s perfect. Tysm!
Which method did u use?
Have a great day god love y’all
does it work on sandals?
I have done the water in bag in shoe in freezer method before and somehow the bags LEAKED and ruined my shoes.
Be sure to double bag and be sure of a good seal!
probably because you didn't make sure it was super sealed
Yep you messed up
Great great great information shoe buying is a hard time for me
Which one will work best for converse ( hight cut )
Why is the music so over bearing? Can hardly hear them talk at times.
cremilar headphones....
A strange choice for sure
Does it work to a memory foam shoes for example skechers shoe??
Well this work with skate shoes?
It took forever for my rollerskates to arrive in the mail and they feel a half a size too small so here I am😳 I’d have to take everything out of the freezer to do the “frozen water method” 😆
I got a nice pair of waterproof Timberland boots and I need these facts now. I've never wore them
Would this work on jordans
