Do the same with your pair of socks. Now wear the socks and the boots while still wet and let them dry on your feet by sitting in the sun. Your boots will shrink and the calf will become tighter anyway.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_can_I_stretch_my_boots_wider\"><\/span>How can I stretch my boots wider?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>To give yourself more room in your boots, put them on with thick pair of socks (or two) and then blast the areas you would like to stretch out with a blow dryer on a high or medium setting for 20 to 30 seconds. Keep the boots on while they cool, then take them off and test out the fit with a normal pair of socks.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_cobbler_make_boot_calf_wider\"><\/span>Can a cobbler make boot calf wider?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Stretch shoes or widen the calf of boots If a shoe is too small, narrow, or if a certain part rubs an area on your foot uncomfortably, a cobbler (or the store where you purchased the shoe, like Nordstrom) can usually help stretch it out.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_can_I_slim_my_calves\"><\/span>How can I slim my calves?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a great way to lose weight.

This option works well for boots and walking shoes, too. Use a padded heel grip. Padding out the back of your shoe with a small heel cushion or piece of foam can close the gap between the shoe and your foot.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_my_leather_boots_stretch\"><\/span>Will my leather boots stretch?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Do leather boots stretch? Yes, leather boots, with use, naturally stretch over time. The weight and stress you apply to the boots as you wear them will eventually cause the boots to shape to your feet.

If you need to go a half size to a full size up, a boot stretcher will get you there. But if your shoes are 2 sizes too big, consider purchasing a new pair of shoes. Boot stretchers work best on natural materials like leather and canvas.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_shorten_boots\"><\/span>Can you shorten boots?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>For boots that are specifically designed to be above the knee, be sure to purchase ones that have an elastic material or you will have a hard time wearing them for an extended period of time.
