Premium Exotic Hide Boots – Built for Fit and Style

If you’ve ever struggled to put on a pair of boots because of a high instep, wide feet, or a larger calf, you’re not alone. The good news? There’s a solution.

At Schafer Leather Store in Marietta, Ohio, we specialize in custom boot stretching and fitting—a unique service that sets us apart in the region. As Rob Schafer, the store’s owner, explains:

“People say, ‘I can never wear a western boot—I can’t get it on.’ Nonsense. I can get it on you.”

Boot Stretching Done Right — No Steam, No Damage

Using specialized equipment and a safe, non-discoloring compound, we are able to stretch boots without the risk of damage. We never use steam, which can alter the color or texture of your boots, especially when working with exotic hides.

Our boot fitting services include:

  • Throat stretching for high insteps

  • InStep and width expansion for snug fits

  • Stretching for bunions and calf sizes

  • All adjustments are made while preserving the look and integrity of your boots

“Sometimes, you don’t need a wider size—you just need a better fit. We take care of that here every day.”

For Men’s and Women’s Boots

Whether it's western boots, fashion boots, or rugged workwear, our stretching service is designed for both men’s and women’s styles. This process makes new boots more comfortable from the start and helps longtime favorites fit like they should.

“Why wait for boots to break in? Let’s do it right here, right now.”
