My ex GF bought me those and they were great for the first 12 months then they both deformed.
Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break

There’s metal shoehorns which are nearly indestructible.
You probably can’t order from this shop wherever you’re from, but my parents have this model: shop.wenko.de/…/Schuhloeffel-Extra-Lang-58-5-cm-r…
And yeah, that very much feels like you could repurpose it as a makeshift katana in some fictional zombie outbreak…

Nearly?!? I mean sure a furnace or a steam roller or a nuclear blast might do it but….putting on shoes?

Well, you do have a pretty big lever there. If your shoes are rather tight and you really gotta work your way in there, then you’re gonna exert quite a bit of force…

Dude. 1/2 size larger maybe?
I kid but seriously. I once made the mistake of getting new shoes RIGHT before a convention where I was on my feet for 8-10 hours a day and no time to get different ones. They were too tight and that pressure caused me pain for years.

I mean, I don’t know what shoes OP is wearing, but if you’ve got uncushioned shoes (leather shoes or fake leather or whatever), then you do want them to be basically skin-tight. Otherwise, they’ll grind up and down your feet and give you blisters.
But yeah, of course, if they crush your feet, that’s no good either. 🫠
