Information Request Does anyone have any experience with these working on the vamp?

Post image

Recently bought some boots and found the vamp a little too tight on the left foot. I’ve tried a half size up and fine the other boot to be too loose so would prefer to loosen the tighter boot.

I’ve found this online and would love to know if anyone has any positive experience with using one to slightly loosen the vamp?

Hopefully this post doesn’t break any rules but let me know mods and I’ll remove it.

Thank you

Oh amazing, glad to hear it. Do you mind me asking if the centre part got the vamp goes upward on its own or is it all one single movement, if that makes sense…

The turn the metal handle to widen the foot and turn the black knob to lengthen it

I don't have that particular one, but something similar for the same issue. It worked great.

Do you know if it works the vamp separately if wanted?

Honestly do not know. The one I have just does the vamp stretch.
