Volumising footbeads

[mrcairney]

Odd title aside, I bought a cracking pair of well used boots a while back and they're just that little bit big for me (0.5 of a size).

Whacking in a couple of pairs of socks sorts it out but when it warms up I don't fancy that. Are they any footbeds out there that add a bit of volume to a boot? I've been looking at these since they're for riggers and wellies.

Anyone got any recommendations?

these are very good and are pretty thick so would probably make up half a size.

I have a pair of those sole insoles - the red ones. They do take up a fair bit of space, so much so that I no longer use them in the trainers I bought them for.

Brasher sell some volume reducing footbeds which are completely flat - they go under your existing footbeds.

Thanks guys and thanks to Robbi for posting me testers!

The boots in question are getting a re-sole at the moment but should be back here Monday.

You can get a cream/gel that goes in the boot. You then put your feet in and it helps contract the leather to a snug fit. Will only work if they ate only slightly too large. Can't recall what its called.
