Shoe stretchers
Shoe stretchers

I’ve looked in shops but can’t find any shoe stretchers, the ones you can add rubber forms onto a shoe shape and that you can expand in the shoes to stretch them? Anyone seen them for sale here?

Not tried this myself but it’s worth a try!
This trick may sound like an old wives’ tale, but it’s an amusingly effective way to stretch tight shoes. Peel a potato and shape it into the mold of the front of the shoe where your toes go. Wipe the potato dry with a paper towel and stuff it into your shoe overnight. This method sounds silly, but you can definitely expect to have a little extra space in your shoes come morning.
