After that, you don’t have to do anything, you just have to wait until the newspapers dry. After that, narrow shoes should become wider.
Another way is to wet the problematic pair with alcohol. This substance can be replaced with cologne or vodka. Having processed the shoes from the inside (this is important, because alcohol can damage the skin), you should put it on your feet on thick socks. So walk until the shoes dry.
Do not forget that it is better to stretch shoes made of genuine leather, which, as a rule, so has the property to take the shape of a foot without outside interference.
