yeah i tried wearing two socks and it sucks.. soft paper, does it help? because im scared that when i change direction, my foot'll move forward and hack up the front part.. ouch..
but anyone know how to make the boot itself smaller? i read a thread wear tying shoe laces aroudn the vapors apparently makes it smaller.. no?

It might help to take a shower in the shoes. I've known that to help tremendously. It molds to the shape of your foot when it dries.

What about if the boots are half a size smaller? They aren't tight to the point of discomfort but wouldn't mind if there was a way to break it in easier.

there's no way for you to shrink your boots. the outsole itself is very very hard to shrink unless you melt it. boots are not like clothes which you can easily shrink.
your only solution is to get new boots your right size or trade those boots you have for boots your right size.
i know free boots dont come always but don't let your game and your enjoyment suffer because of boots.

All I know is that it worked for my daughter. She was told to do it with her Vapors (which gave unbelievable blisters!!) and it worked. No more blisters.
Then she did it with her Predators - again, no more blisters.
Course, I doubt it would work for shoes that are 1/2 size too big.
