I have an arthritic bump on the top of my foot, 3" back from big toe. Will this product stretch the top of the shoe/boot?

Not as designed. What I did as I had a similar problem. I drilled holes in the top of the stretcher to accept the "bunion" plugs in the area wanted. Worked great!!

I dont know what type of shoes you have but yes. I have a bunion and I can wear my brand new shoes now. BUT-I stretched them for several weeks! I kept turning the shoe horn and I would leave the shoes to stretch. If after a few days I could turn it I did. So my answer is yes, but if you want it quick and in a hurry, I dont think it will work.

It seemed tall enough for me, but I have plantar faciitis. Since your problem is in the heal it might also be enough. You should probably check with your doctor though to be sure.

It should work if you can fit the back of the stretcher against the back of your shoe. I love my shoe stretcher!

NO. I bought them just to stretch the toe area and they would not stay in place. I would not recommend this product.

Hello J., I am sorry that your shoes are not remaining stretched. I have used my stretcher on several pairs of shoes without a problem. The only thing that I do differently is that I do not gradually stretch the shoes; I open it very wide from the onset and leave for a few days. If you try this & it works great, if not using a stretch liquid (also sold on Amazon) along with the shoe stretcher should definitely do the trick!

Yes! I also used these for my husband's shoes, he needed them a bit wider. I would recommend you leaving the stretcher in for more than just the weekend.

Yes. I have used this product on a big toe; it appeared to work quite well. NOTE: Be sure to follow the directions on the side of the bottle carefully. Good Luck!

The heel cups will move your foot forward a little in your boot. If you don't have much room in the toe box, I wouldn't try it.

I don't think so. If it's to wide just in the heal then it should fix it, but if the whole shoe is too wide then I don't think it will help.

It should because it separates but then you will have to be careful because it may cause strain on the straps and cause them to bust. In addition due to the shape of the stretcher it is somewhat difficult to use with certain shoe shapes. I think it may work best on whole shoes. Maybe you could look for a stretcher specifically made for high heel shoes.

They make an elongated leg cast sealer that would probably work better. The shoe size shouldn't be a problem because the foot part is quite large.

Yes. Majority of my shoes are 4-4 1/2 heels and stretch the front shoes so does not pinch when my foot push forward due to the height.

hmmm...I imagine so, but I used mine on some heels and flats. I would think that what I used it on is a tougher material to stretch than the upper material on boots so I would bet it'd work on tall boots too. Hope that helps

I think it would depend on how large your calf is, because it would sit above the boot more than out would a shoe. Good luck.

It will stretch in width only. A shoe store might be able to stretch a shoe in length.

Not really. The width doesn't get narrow enough to be able to place the stretcher as far as the toe area.

Yes, but the product overall is not good. It does not hold the crooked toe down ! Good luck.
