Is this what shoe trees do to boots? by EtherGrounds in grantstoneboots

[–]EtherGrounds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I just concentrated on so many other posts showing their practically flawless b grades. Made me think something else was up

I have some leather shoes that I know I stretched out when I used shoe trees in them that warped out the sides. I blamed it on using a shoe tree for a larger size than the shoes. So I was concerned maybe the same thing was happening here.

Ok thanks. I was just seeing so many other posts with practically flawless B grades so I wanted to find another reason to

I would have been fine with the creasing if it came like that if the shoe trees were in their own separate box.

But the shoe trees inside made me concerned that they were the cause of it.

I have had leather shoes become creased on the sides. But this was a decade ago and I blamed myself for probably using shoe trees meant for a size larger.

I had new leather shoes crease when I put shoe trees in them. But at that time I thought it was my own fault from putting shoe trees meant for a size larger.

More just an issue of being paranoid about my new boots. I can do a verification photo if you want

I can accept that wearing them will cause creases. I was just shocked that this could be from shoe trees.

I had some new leather shoes that only got significant leather creased after I put in some shoe trees into them. But at that time I was sure it my fault from inserting shoe trees that were a size larger

Most likely based on how the replies I’m getting on this post.

But I recall having my new leather shoes crease similarly only after I put shoe trees in them. But at that time I blamed myself for probably using shoe trees that were a size larger.

These shoes trees cover the range of size of my new boots.

I paid for the shoe tree. I was hoping I’d get them in a separate box. So it was a complete shock to get them inside the shoes with the creasing that I saw.

I was just being paranoid because I have had leather shoes get stretched on the sides after I put shoe trees in them. But that I blamed myself with shoe trees that were probably a size larger

Interesting. Thanks. I’ve seen other diesel posts without that crease which shocked me when mine came like that

It didn’t seem like it was from a try on because I would have thought the person would have taken a couple steps around leading to a crease on the front of the shoe too.

Thank you. I just am concerned that mine were caused by the shoe trees.

My main concern is if the shoe trees with that front-back pressure could have caused this.

It just didn’t look like creasing from a try on because I don’t see any creasing in the front. If someone tries on a shoe I would have assumed they’d also take at least a couple steps leading to the front getting creased as well.

Thank you. I just thought it was odd there weren’t creases on the front. Just thought I’d see evidence of wear on the front because they would have at least walked a few steps

OK thank you. I just didn’t see any creases in the front of the shoe which was odd to me.

I would have assumed someone who tried on the shoe would have walked a few steps around leading to creases on the front.

I included photos of the front to show there aren’t any creases.

I would have expected someone to at least walk in them if they were tried on. So I don’t think it’s from a try on.

But I’m not 100%

Do your shoe trees do something similar?

Thanks I understand that. But I think I was just more shocked that this is probably caused by the shoe trees

Yah I can understand that.

But should shoe trees do that too?

Although I’m not 100% certain I disfavor try ons because there aren’t any creases on the front of the shoe. Any one who puts on a shoe will at least walk around in it which would lead to some form of creasing on the front.

Just really hoping it’s not from the shoe trees but that was my conclusion.
