Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

In fact, i'm giggly-estactic about owning this boot stretcher. It is easy to use and has solid craftsmanship. It’s a little pricey, but quality items usually are.

This tool is a real boon and works perfectly! This works best in a deep freezer. To re-mold these type of boots takes time.

Foot fitter recommends stuffing the toe area with a wash cloth or the insert that came with your new boots. Be careful with zippers though. I have two pairs of very expensive boots with a full zipper and it worked great.

I’m frye obsessed and while the tall boots *just* fit over my calves, there’s something about a looser tall boot that makes your leg appear slimmer" "i have a 19 calf, and this had no problem stretching them to fit.

Your local cobbler uses a very similar device to stretch your boots. I personally use a veggie steamer and hold the boot over the steam. This is all that you do when you have your * professionally stretched and they use this exact same tool.

Cons

The exterior of this device was sandblasted. When stretching a material, as in this situation, one wants a very low coefficient of friction. I am super bummed and now have lost my hope to stretch my boots as well as the boot that is hostage to the bro... Read More

Quality

Very happy with the quality and end result.

I invest in quality shoes which i have for years.

I needed to readjust a couple times so the boot didn’t rip, but that’s the quality of the boot, not the boot stretcher.

I went back and forth a few times until i was happy with the fit.

Price

I hesitated for a while because the price is steep, but so worth it.

I've used them on boots that have cost me $500.

After reading reviews here (and waiting for the boot stretcher to come back into stock), i decided the price was worth it if th... Read More

Shipping

Shipping was from footfitter directly and although shipped ups, was late by a couple of days and the slowest shipping was used.

I purchased mine on another web site and with a military discount paid about $176 with free shipping.

Packaging/appearance

So a good bit of the stretcher was sticking out atop the boot but it will still work just fine this way.

Competitiveness

I got a brand-new pair of hunter boots-cheap.

I'm a middle-aged woman with no upper body strength and calves that are larger than they used to be, hence my investment in a h... Read More

I thought about using a heatgun, but didn't want to take the chance of melting them.
