Ballet slippers!!! hellllllppppppp??
If they are leather, and you could go to a shoe repair store, you can get a fluid to stretch them while you wear them. If you can%26#039;t get to a shoe repair store, you can use alcohol (almost the same thing they use on the shoe stretching fluid). Wet your shoes where it is tight with the fluid or alcohol, then wear it for 15-20 minutes, standing or walking in your shoes. If you can wear a small plastic bag to protect your feet, wear it - if not, make sure to wash your feet after and put lotion on it. If it%26#039;s not leather, soak it in warm water, then dry it with towel, and wear it around for awhile till they dry get dry. Or you can have an older siblings to wear it so, it%26#039;ll stretch (dry or wet or with fluid or alcohol). Good Luck!


You can also use the fluid 30 minutes before the dance, and it will help stretch the leather ballet shoes.
Reply:You can also tuck the too small ones inside the slipper and have your foot over them. Another option is to cut the elastics off and put new ones on. A third option is to sew a new set of elastics on the shoe where the other ones are not sewed on.
Reply:if they aren%26#039;t pointe shoes then I think you will probably be able to deal with it for one night...wear them around the house from now until the show but wear socks over them so they don%26#039;t get dirty...That is if you can still get them on...it will stretch them out
Reply:well it depends are they pointe shoes or flat shoes?if pointe shoes you just have to suck it up and were them even if they hurt i had to do that. and if there just flat then just were them dont waste your money on buying new ones sorry i cant help any more!
Reply:get them damp (just a tiny bit of water)


and then wear them around the house to stretch them out.





thats about all you can do.
Reply:uhm just stretch them out and wear them around the house and if you have an older sibling ask them to wear it for a few minutes but not long because leather stretches easily
