Frequently Asked Questions

How much can shoes be stretched?

Most leather shoes can be stretched up to one full size (length or width). The exact amount depends on the leather type, construction method, and current condition of the footwear.

Will stretching damage my shoes?

When performed by professionals using proper equipment and techniques, stretching is safe and will not damage quality leather footwear. We condition the leather beforehand to ensure safe stretching.

How long do the results last?

Professional stretching results are permanent for leather shoes. The leather fibers are permanently expanded and will maintain their new shape with normal wear.

Can all types of shoes be stretched?

Most leather shoes and boots can be stretched effectively. Synthetic materials have limited stretching potential. We'll assess your specific footwear and advise on the best approach.
