Bont Riot Buckle heat moulding
The Bont Riot Buckle shoes I just got are nice save for the slight pinching at the widest point of my feet. I'm wondering if anyone would have any suggestions for slightly flattening the edges at those points? I've thought about using a vice, but I worry that it would damage the bottom of the sole. Should I just take something heavy and press down on the edge?
Speaking of heat moulding, while the instructions say to do it at 60C/160F for 20 minutes but "no longer," my old stove only goes to a minimum of 170F, and even 25 minutes isn't long enough to make the sole pliable at all. Do I need to do it hotter and longer still?
