A solid shoe stretcher made of lacquered beech wood with a stable 2-way mechanism made of metal, which can widen the front and lengthen the shoe. The stretcher is straight (not paired), so you can extend both the right and the left shoe with it. With the shoe stretcher and the 4 different sizes of supplied buttons, you can widen the front of your shoe at the point that presses your foot. If the shoe pinches in several places, you can also use several pads. Insert the extender into your shoe. Turn the handle clockwise, the front part spreads. The handle with the metal bar remain outside the shoe and is not pushed into the shoe like a shoe tree. To stretch in length, fit the wooden wedge into the heel cap and with the silver, knurled screw carefully create tension. Moistening the shoe beforehand from the inside with very little warm water or steam can help with the stretching process. It is even better to use a shoe stretch spray such as Bufalo Shoe Stretch. Let the shoe rest with the shoe expander for 24 to 48 hours. You could also widen the shoe bit by bit, so don't stretch it to the desired destination the first time, but turn the stretching device a little bit every few hours. So you give the shoe or the leather the time it takes to get used to the new size. Do not overtighten the stretcher, as the upper leather of your shoe, but also the mechanics, could be damaged. The shoe stretcher fits in almost all shoes without a shaft and with a flat heel. With the shoe stretcher you can achieve a quick and noticeable success - you may even be able to "save" the last bad buy.

good quality
the width expander worked well which is why I bought it but just by way of information the length feature could not work because i could not get the block of wood at the back into the shoe

Stretches only one way!
Very sturdy, well made with an attractive finish - BUT it only stretches laterally.When you put the end piece into the shoe there is no way of stretching the shoe length wise.Hopeless! A silly design! It will have to go back
