However, often times our new kicks may not feel as great as they
look, especially if they are suede or leather. “Sure, fashion isn’t
supposed to be about comfort, but it’s interesting how we voluntarily
wear shoes that inflict so much pain and make us indulge in long ice
baths to recover. After all, these style must-have elongate our legs,
shape up our calves and make us feel like a boss when wearing high heels
and we hear our feet clacking against the floor,” said Saman Javed,

Yes, it’s true, it is incredibly hard to ditch wearing high heels for
the sake of comfort and the good news is that you don’t have to. You
can get the best of both worlds – style and comfort – by following this
easy trick that will make you effortlessly break in that fresh pair of
leather shoes.
Follow these quick steps and break free:
- Fill up a sturdy Ziploc bag with water until it’s half full.
- Make sure you squeeze out the air in the bag before fully zipping it.
- Place the Ziploc in the shoe, or simply where the problem area is. If you don’t want your entire shoe to loosen up, you can always block off parts of the shoe with cloth or newspaper and place the bag of water where you want it.
- Put the shoes in the freezer until the water is completely frozen. As the water turns to ice, it will expand, stretching the leather with it and consequently loosening your shoes.
- Pull out the shoes from the freezer, wait for the ice to thaw and then remove the bags. Wearing high heels should be comfortable now.
