Making shoes smaller

I‘ve got these shoes. They are so comfy, I have them in 3 colours.

However, just one shoe is too big. It constantly slips off my heel when walking, to the point I only wear them to places I won’t be walking much.

Is there any way of shrinking it a bit? They are a suedy sort of material.

Just get an insole. That usually helps when shoes are a bit too big.

Insoles in both, otherwise you may get a delayed back pain.

Or you could try heel grips, which you could put into one shoe only. They come as either suede of silicone, and they just stick in.

Oh why didn’t I think of insoles?! Will have a look at heel grips too. Thanks ☺️

You can get half insoles too, that just go in the front part. Heel grips are good when they stay stuck - I superglued mine eventually!
