How to be if rubs footwear?

The rubbing footwear – the most real scourge of a modern civilization! And, it seems, during fitting of a new pair of shoes in shop everything was normal, however, as soon as this footwear appears at our place and we decide it to update at last, at many of us difficult tests begin. Paying for pleasure poshchegolyat in new shoes with painful callosities and scrapes, we hurry to set aside them away and to return to old, but such comfortable footwear! And why not to try to get on also with a new pair of shoes?

Whether it is worth hurrying to put on new footwear?

If during fitting footwear does not press at all, it does not say at all that it will not occur also in the course of her socks. Besides, new footwear can "please" also with such "pleasant things" as the rubbing or too rigid heels which are fairly sticking out sharp details or strongly squeezing stones of fingers various decorative elements. So you should not hurry to put on svezhepriobretenny footwear long walk just next day, or on an appointment – at first it needs to be tested for a cheerful party in house conditions! For this purpose quite enough several days will put on new boots, sandals or shoes of the house and to sport them at least on one or one and a half hours. Footwear gradually will begin to take the form of legs, and will be during this time quite real to reveal all problem places where there can be scrapes or callosities. And at detection of the sticking-out elements of finishing or threads they need to be cut off accurately. If it suddenly is found out that footwear rubs because it was small, then it should try to be carried, however at the same time you should not forget that it will manage to be made only when the difference in sizes does not exceed the half-size!

How to carry footwear?

To carry footwear, it is quite admissible to use also the "grandmother's" methods tested for many decades. The first and, perhaps, the most popular method is raznashivany footwear by means of thick socks, that is at first put on quite thick socks legs, and then over them put on new pair of shoes. By the way, it is the safest of all possible options as it will not allow to do much harm to either legs, or footwear!

The next way – alcohol use. The way is quite effective, however not absolutely safe as under the influence of alcohol footwear from thin skin can stretch too strongly or even to be deformed, besides, on multi-colored, textile or suede footwear there can be very unpleasant spots. And still alcohol rather strongly dries up feet and skin of legs and quite often leads to their coloring by shoe dye. You should not forget also that the footwear stretched thus can "be painted" still long enough.


And one more very risky method – extension of footwear by means of wetting by its water from within. This way can lead to quite strong deformation of a new pair of shoes and to emergence hardly removed or even at all not removed spots too and also to provoke unsticking of various elements of finishing. So it is the best of all to resort to such method only if suddenly it becomes clear that an inconvenience is given by only some certain part of footwear (a tinder or press side parts, etc.) – in this case slightly moisten it with water and carry two-three of hours before achievement of the necessary results.

And those to whom "grandmother's" methods did not attract can safely use the best and reliable option for extension of footwear – special factory foam or spray which cannot be got in almost any shop. Similar means are made on the basis of the checked formulas and are absolutely safe also for human health, and for recently acquired footwear!

Polished heels – how to be?

To prevent possible rubbing of heels, will not prevent to rub footwear backs with a rosin piece, wax or a candle from within – they perfectly help to smooth surfaces of backs, doing them more sliding and smooth.


If heels rub rough seams or small ledges on backs, then backs need to be probed properly fingers then to remove all speakers of a detail and the sticking-out threads, and then with small effort to properly iron all rough seams the volume handle of an ordinary table knife: such approach will allow to make seams more flat and to thoroughly level all available roughnesses.

And some women for the sake of rescue of the Piglet generously powder them children's powder, talc or powder of magnesia (small ground). Will not prevent to powder them and footwear from within. By the way, this way allows to kill two hares at once – essentially to facilitate wearing favourite new shoes and to cope with excessive perspiration of legs!
