What should I do if my shoes pinch my feet

What should we do if the shoes pinch our feet too much? Many people will have a headache when they encounter such shoes. If the shoes pinch their feet too much, they will definitely be uncomfortable. The pinching will cause severe pain in the feet, and you will feel that you can't walk on the road. If the shoes don't fit, it will definitely be very uncomfortable to wear them, but you can't bear to throw them away. Many newly bought shoes will have this phenomenon. So what should we do if the shoes pinch our feet?

I searched for answers online and summarized them as follows:

1. Use a hair dryer to heat the part of the shoe that touches the instep, and put it on while it is still warm. For the kind of rubbing on a certain part of the foot, such as the back of the heel or the side of the toe, which will cause blisters: you can use a hair dryer to blow on the part of the shoe that rubs the foot until the leather becomes soft, and then hit it with a hard object.

2. Application method: Apply facial cream to the place where new leather shoes rub your feet, or dry a wet paper towel, then soak it in white wine, fix it with a clip to the place where your feet rub, and leave it overnight to soften the leather.

3. Pressing method: If the edge of the shoe rubs your foot, you can cover it with a wet towel for a few minutes to make it damp and soft, and then use a glass bottle or other cylindrical object to press it hard several times.

4. Wedge method: If the new shoes pinch your feet because they are too small, you may try to wet them with a wet towel and then use shoe wedges to stretch them larger so that they will fit your feet better.

5. You can put a band-aid on the back of your foot to reduce the direct friction of the shoes on the skin.

If your shoes pinch your feet, you can try these methods to improve the problem. If the shoes pinch your feet too much, it must be because the shoes are not suitable for you. Be sure to keep this in mind and never choose such shoes next time. If the shoes pinch your feet too much, you can pad them with something. This can slightly improve the pain caused by the pinching.
