You can get a Dr. Scholl's or store brand flat foam insole at CVS or Duane Reed for $5 or so -- something like this: http://www.drscholls.com/product.aspx?prodid=64. Remove the boot liner and whatever footbed you're using -- place the new flat foam insole on the boot board after trimming to fit if needed -- replace the liner and footbed - and you've got a smaller boot!
YMMV but I found this worked pretty well for a couple of days on boot that were a size too big and it was worth $5 to find out. |
Severine, I've got some of the material left from my husband's boot fitting, which we used to tighten up his heels in his new boots. I'll make sure to pack it for the Abasin Trip. We'll fix you up.
