    Boot stretchers are they worth it? I have a pair of Baffin Crossfires a little tight in the toes, Thoughts, please.

    Put them on, step in a bucket or tub of water, get good and wet. Wear them until they dry.

    Can’t imagine how long a guy would need to wear a set of waterproof arctic boots until dry? Trench foot isnt very nice

    I’ve heard of people doing that with there cowboy boots and believe that’s what the cowboys did way back in the day. never heard of doing it with insulated winter boots. Like beads said they would take forever to dry

    Can you even stretch the rubber portion?

    How long would it take to soak a pair of waterproof boots to begin with? Maybe 200 years ago they didn’t use water and was the origin of the phrase ‘like pouring p i s s out of a boot’.
