temporary
I used both the stretcher and liquid per the instructions. You need to be careful that the stiching doesn't get pulled too tight. I was able to get room by placing the plastic inserts in differing locations, but the results were less dramatic over time & I needed to keep the stretchers in when I wasn't wearing them. Best to take more time & get the correct fit when buying shoes. These stretchers are go0od for bringing wey-shrunk shoes back to their original size vs trying to make them larger after buying.
