From the moment they arrive, it’s apparent that Formé Shoe Shapers are a unique product. I mean, has anyone ever said that shoe trees are beautiful? Maybe on the 10th of Never.
Formulated in a sturdy rose gold plastic, Formé ($48.95 a pair) is the shoe solution you maybe didn’t even know you needed. First and foremost, it stretches out the toe box of shoes that start to become too tight for you. The ingenious design is adjustable, and also acts as a simple shoe tree to keep your footwear in the finest shape.
To stretch a shoe all you need to do is slightly expand the wings and then insert Formé into your shoe. Then check it in an hour, if the shoes need more stretch than expand the wings more and leave them in overnight.
And speaking of overnight, you can put the issue shapers inside your shoes overnight after wearing them. Then in the morning take them out and use them in another pair for a quick stretch. Leaving Formé in your shoes overnight helps eliminate wrinkles and keeps the toe and heel areas shaped like new.
Formé is a female-founded and funded company. Maureen Stockton, the founder and inventor, deserves much credit for creating the world’s first high heel shoe shaper. Although she specifically designed the product for high heels. it also works beautifully in flats, sandals and booties. It literally makes any shoe more comfortable, she promises.
The company’s promise: Meticulously designed, ethically sourced and manufactured to transform your every pair of “wish they fit” shoes to perfect fit.
To re-shape an old slogan, what’s good for the sole is good for the soul.
Formé provided us a pair of these shoe shapers in order to test them. We loved!
