Chances are, your feet swelled on the way home from the store. Good news - a shoe stretcher can be used to stop the pain.
What is a shoe stretcher?
Do all stretchers work on all shoes?
You have trained consistently for months, achieved your season's goals and now your sights are set on winter training and next season. By this point, your running shoes (a loyal training buddy throughout the summer) should be looking fairly well-worn. They are super comfortable, they fit beautifully, but they just don't provide the levels of cushioning and support they did fresh out of the box. It's time for a change
ED Hardy Men Shoe!Choosing the best running shoes can be a tricky task though, even for the most experienced of athletes. Most likely, the manufacturers of your current shoes will have brought out a new version of your current model, possibly with vastly different characteristics. So, while it is not quite straight back to square one for the task of choosing a new pair, it is important to be discerning when choosing your winter pair.
A shoe stretcher is an object that can be used to stretch a portion of your shoe or the entire length and width of the shoe. Stretchers can be used to stretch the specific area of the shoe where you may have a corn or bunion or just the toe box to allow more height for your toes or even the instep to allow more height for the top of your foot. A two-way stretcher can be used to stretch both the length and width of the shoe. It cannot be used to take a size six to a size eight, but a stretcher can certainly give you enough room to make the shoes more comfortable if the correct size was chosen to begin with.
Not all shoe stretchers are created equally. Every type of shoe requires a different type of stretcher. For example, a boot stretcher is definitely not what you want to use on a pair of high heel shoes. You can find a shoe stretcher for every type of shoe. Stretchers are also made for men's sizes and women's sizes so make sure you choose the right one. You've done the hard part and located the perfect pair of shoes. You know they don't have to pinch when your feet swell because now you can fix them with your shoe stretcher.
In this article we will attempt to set out, in simple terms, the key factors to consider when choosing your new pair of shoes. If you choose the right pair, your shoes will help you to stay injury free over winter and lay the foundations for a successful season next year. However, if you make the wrong choice, you may suffer rubbing, black toenails or, worse still, long-term injury which will allay any hopes of a successful season next year.FACTOR 1: COMFORT
A running shoe should feel comfortable the moment you try it on.....the running shoe should feel 'right'. If the shoes feel uncomfortable, you should reject them. It doesn't matter whether the particular brand/shoe is endorsed by Chrissie Wellington

Natural materials work best with shoe stretchers. This includes materials such as leather and suede. You will most likely need a shoe stretching liquid to spray your shoes with to dampen them so that they will stretch. Materials such as vinyl do not work well because there is not enough give in the material to allow the stretcher to make a difference. You may want to practice stretching a pair of shoes in your chosen material that aren't as important to you as your new pair. This will let you see how much your material stretches so that you do not over stretch your shoes and will also allow you to ensure that the stretching liquid will not stain or damage your shoes. Make sure you allow up to 48 hours per shoe to complete the stretching process. This is definitely something you cannot wait to the last minute to start.
