Dd’s bought a pair of vans high top trainers. They look fantastic but they’re an absolute nightmare to get on and off. They seem to have some sort of rubberised material in the heel and ankle region that just grips the foot/sock when trying to push the shoe on. And painful on her fingers trying to pry them on. Even with all the laces loosened. It’s taking her ages every time. She’s tried a shoe horn but still a struggle. Anyone experienced this? They’re fairy new, will they loosen up over time? Or is there something I can do to the heel area to reduce the friction? I’m thinking some smooth tape or maybe talcum powder?
