If your shoes feel too narrow, too tight or they give you sore toes, you can bring them to a shoe repair shop to be stretched. Costs are at around £6 on average to upwards of £15. They usually use a tool or a machine that slowly stretches out the shoes. Leaving the footwear on said equipment for some time will eventually make the shoes a lot more loose and a ton more comfortable. Shoe stretching is particularly important for people with foot issues such as skin conditions, bone injuries or the likes.
