Need shoe hacks?! YES PLEASE!
No more sagging ankle straps!
Do you have shoes with straps around your ankle that keep sagging? No stress, we have the ultimate hack for you! Take a small rubber band and wrap it around the strap.

Restore your favorite white sneaker soles!
Are the soles of your favorite sneakers no longer sparkling white? No problem! Use toothpaste and an old toothbrush to clean them up. Apply a bit of toothpaste to the soles and scrub thoroughly with the toothbrush. The abrasive action helps loosen dirt. Wipe the toothpaste off with a dry cloth for a fresh, clean look. This is a simple and affordable way to restore your sneakers.
Fix squeaky shoes:
The annoying squeak of shoes is often caused by friction between the sole and insole. Luckily, this is easy to fix. Sprinkle some talcum powder under the insole. If the insole isn’t removable, sprinkle the powder along the edges of the sole. The talcum powder reduces friction, eliminating the squeak. This simple trick keeps your shoes silent with minimal effort.
No more slipping out of Pumps!
A handy trick to stop slipping out of pumps is to spray the soles of your feet with hairspray. This creates extra grip, preventing your feet from sliding inside your shoes. Just be sure to spray only on your feet, not on the shoes themselves, as it could damage or discolor the material.
Prevent blisters in new shoes
New shoes often cause blisters, but a simple way to prevent this is to spray deodorant on your feet before wearing them. The deodorant creates a protective layer that reduces friction, minimizing the chance of blisters. This trick is especially useful for breaking in new shoes.
Painful Feet in Pumps
Do your feet hurt in pumps? A simple trick to relieve pressure is to tape your third and fourth toes (counting from the big toe) together with medical or hypoallergenic tape. This reduces strain on the nerve that often causes discomfort, making your feet feel more comfortable. This method is particularly helpful for long wear or high heels.
