How to Break in Leather Ballet Shoes Fast

Leather ballet flats are a hot fashion accessory that work with almost any look, from jeans to a maxi dress. Unfortunately, shoes that look fabulous on the website or store shelves dont feel so wonderful on your feet. There are many techniques to stretch leather over time, but these arent helpful if you want to wear your new flats to an upcoming event. It is possible to quickly and gently break in your leather ballet flats without damaging them.

Instructions

Fill a plastic spray bottle with a mixture of 1 cup hot water and 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol. Replace the bottles top and shake it vigorously to incorporate the ingredients.

Set the leather ballet flats on a piece of newspaper and spray the outside and inside of the shoes with a light misting of the rubbing alcohol mixture.

Slip on one to two pairs of heavy white socks. Place the shoes on your feet and walk around for 10 to 15 minutes.

Remove the shoes, cover them both inside and out with an additional misting of the rubbing alcohol mixture. Slip on the shoes and walk around for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.

Remove the heavy socks and try on the shoes. If they arent comfortably worn in, repeat the process of misting them with the rubbing alcohol mixture and walking around for 10- to 15-minute increments in the heavy socks and shoes.

Cover the leather ballet flats with a thin layer of leather protectant once they are comfortably broken in. Use a microfiber cloth to apply the leather protectant according to the package directions.
