I know several ways to expand the boots of leather and leather substitutes:
- Alcohol. Soak the cloth in rubbing alcohol and wipe with a generous portions that require stretching. Wait until the liquid is absorbed and put on shoes.
Be careful to handle alcohol should only those areas that need to stretch. If you moisten the entire surface, it is possible to deform the model.
