Hi, I'm not sure if this thread really fits here but hopefully someone can help, I have a pair of trainers that I play football in, they are just new and are very tight, is there anyway I can stretch them a bit, eg stuffing them with something over night or something like that,

Scrunch up newspaper and stuff it into the trainers until you can't fit anymore in and leave for a day - i think you're supposed to do this with wet newspaper, but i'd try dry first as it might ruin the shoes.0

wet newspaper works a treat, not soaking, just damp, and pack it in tight and leave overnight to dry out. works well with all shoes, except canvas shoes, which can soak up the newsprint.
