Many folks are against buying used shoes and I completely understand why but there are some benefits. People with normal feet tend to sell their shoes once they’ve stretched them out because they’ll walk out of them. So when I buy them second hand they’re essentially pre-broken in like these babies. I steam out the inside ($25 steam clean tool from Amazon) and clean them with leather cleaner but some cobblers will professionally clean them if you prefer a more thorough job.
When I buy luxury shoes brand new they require me to stretch them out a bit with socks before their maiden voyage. Alternatively you can have them stretched by a cobbler if you’re dead set on a particular style. I rarely have luck with JC sandals, I feel like my feet floweth over!
