Boots left standing fold over at the ankle and crease where the leather bends. These four inserts, two pairs in all, stand 17.2 inches tall inside the shaft and hold it upright, and the height can be adjusted for ankle, calf, and knee-high styles.
The set covers two pairs of boots at once, which matters because shapers only do their job when every boot has one. Pliable plastic rolls to fit any size and style of shaft, so a slim ankle boot and a wide knee-high both get support without separate products for each.
The insert is customizable for ankle, calf, and knee-high boots, so the support stops where the boot does instead of projecting out of the top. Matching the height to the shaft is what keeps leather from sagging at the fold line and cracking along the crease through a long off-season.
A loop at the top gives something to pull on, so a shaper comes out of a tall boot without being fished for by hand. Following the directions on the package, that same loop allows the boots to be hung, which gets footwear off a closet floor and keeps the shaft straight.
