What should I do if the front of my new shoes rubs my feet?

It is actually a common phenomenon that the front of new shoes rub your feet, but we can improve it through some methods and tips, such as softening it with a hair dryer, wrapping it with a cloth strip, or applying white wine.

1. Hair dryer softening method

Using a hair dryer to soften your shoes can effectively reduce the problem of shoes rubbing your toes. This method is very suitable for newly purchased leather shoes, especially those that are thinner and have harder leather. If these shoes do not fit well, blisters can easily form. How to soften leather shoes and shorten the running-in period for them? The first step is to put on a pair of thick cotton socks and then put on shoes; the second step is to use hot air from a hair dryer to blow the rubbed area on your feet for about 5 minutes. At the same time, stretch your toes and make sure they are comfortable; the third step is to continue wearing your shoes and wait for them to cool down slowly; the fourth step is to take off your shoes and enjoy the comfortable feeling of your feet!

2. Cloth strip wrapping method

Does this method sound strange? In fact, it depends on what kind of shoes you are dealing with. For example, this method can be used to solve the problem with flip-flops. Although flip-flops are "convertible", you can't take a break when they really rub your feet, as they rub the most tender part between the big toe and the second toe. Wrap a thin strip of cloth around the strap of your flip-flops once or twice to soften the part that pinches your feet, which can effectively prevent your feet from being rubbed. This method can not only reduce the degree of foot pain, but also beautifully transform the shoes!

Three: white wine smear method

The principle of applying white wine to prevent shoes from rubbing your toes is to use alcohol to soften the shoes. Soak a small towel in white wine, take it out and insert it into the place where your foot is being rubbed, making sure it fits tightly. Leaving it like this overnight will help soften the leather of the shoes.

In addition to the above methods, there are many other methods, such as squeezing method, wedge palm method, etc., but most of these methods are based on damaging the shoes. The key to avoiding the root cause of shoes rubbing toes is to choose the right shoes. For shoes made of hard materials, you can choose a larger size. At the same time, it is recommended to try on shoes around 3 pm. At this time, the feet are basically the largest in the day, so you can better choose shoes that fit.
