Sanding Shoe trees heel

[standaloneprotein]

Hi everyone,

I bought 2 pairs of cedar shoe trees for my shoes. I decided to use them right away but the results have been far from good. The heel on my chelsea boots and my loafers now is so big I can feel how the heel is coming out, no hugging. With the loafers is extremely noticeable, and my loafers were the perfect fit (so you can imagine the sadness) and you guys can imagine happening the same with Chelsea boots.

1. What can I do to "undo" the heel stretching on the shoes?
2. Should I sand down the shoe tree to avoid the problem again?

nothing to undo stretching. Yes you can sand down the heel of the trees.
