This is a FAN-TASTIC video about shoe trees that answered all of my questions! And great quality video too! Thank you very much!
Really glad to hear! Much appreciated for the support!
My guy, throw some moisture absorbers into the toe box and heel if its hollow enough of those travel trees and problem solved.
This was brilliant! Thank you for answering every question I have had about finding the right shoe trees for my oxfords.
This feedback just made my day. Thanks for letting me know!
Wow. You really went in-depth in this one mate. Nicely done
It's a fully packed 9mins video lol Thanks so much for the kind words, man!
It’s crazy how much the prices of these shoes trees have increased from the time you posted this video . Inflation I tell ya smh
I hadn't considered getting plastic shoe-trees for travel purposes. I'm going to do that now.
Thank you for this video.
It's mainly for the light weight when traveling. Thanks for dropping a comment and let me know! Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the video! I’m going to try out the spring version shoe trees for some boots I have with high arch support. They look like they will work perfect over the arch and stay in place in the heal area.
Thank you very much! I was almost completely oblivious to the whole topic of shoe trees - and now I learned so much from this one video! ❤
That's amazing to hear!
Thank you for going into such depth, this video sent me the right way.
Very glad to hear it helps! Cheers
Great video! Another thing that I liked about having a shoe tree is that it helps break in the leather shoes, especially with CP- since it can be snug when its brand new.
Thanks, Bruce! Always appreciate your feedback! True that, it definitely does!
Wow I'm impressed of how informative this video was. Excellent video !
Thanks so much! Hopefully it's helpful
Great video, very good information since I am beginning my search to purchase shoes trees for my self and my sons . Also a great gift idea for this Christmas coming up
Thank you
Chill vid and very informative
Thanks for the kind words, mate!
Great Video. Huge fan of your content.
Really appreciate it, mate! Thanks for the support
I agree with your favourite and if buying a few at once then the price can be very reasonable around 20 USD each plus shipping. No point bothering with the other ones (apart from maybe the plastic travel ones) regardless of the value of the shoes they are just bad design. A nice set of matching cedar shoe trees should last an adult lifetime. Also worth getting a few taller boot trees with the same large/small part divided toe, rounded heel and matching metal knob.
Loved this video, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have trees for all my dress and formal shoes but I can't find trees with the volume to fill out casual Derbys (e.g. Barker 'Nairn') or for work boots, not even the critical part of the vamp which flexes when walking.
Just received my 1st pair of shoe trees (type 3) and immediately foresaw problems. Wish I watched your video earlier 😢
Great job!
Yeah, there're some issues with type 3. Hopefully you only bought one pair. Cheers
Just put something in there to protect the back of the shoe... Problem solved!
I like how this channel is called the aesthetic minimalist and it's an overwhelming amount of shoe trees...I love it.
Do you not understand what aesthetic means?
@@theaestheticminimalist Flame that clown
Great video
Thanks for the useful information
Great video! Do you know what sizes the Andres Sendra shoe trees fit? It doesn't say what S, M & L fits on their site. I'm guessing for a size 10 US, an M would be right?
I got nike sb dunk but there is a factory flaw on the toe box like a smal deep crease wich shoe tree can i use to make it back in shape
Great video! It was very informative. I opted for Nordstrom signature shoe trees which is a cross between the 2nd and 4th styles you mentioned. Thanks for sharing!
Really appreciate it, Kim!! I'm glad you found it informative.
Nice shoe trees.
The quality of video is real lit
Much appreciated!
This is good information to know since I work in a shoe store x3
Glad it helps!
Very nicely done sir. Very informative.
Glad to hear! Thanks so much
Awesome video! I bought a shoe tree for my calf leather sneakers and noticed that the knob is pushing my heel too much making it a oval shape. Decided to return them after watching this video! Thank you!!! 👍🏼
Really glad to hear this video helped!
@@theaestheticminimalist Update: I bough a more expensive 50€ shoetree similar to the best split toe one you pointed on the video. And oh let me tell you. They fill the shoe perfectly from toe to heel! Ceder wood smells fresh too!
@@roopekela Thanks for the update! So happy to hear you found the perfect pair. Definitely good investment.
I'm using plastic shoe tree, and I'm planning to buy silica gel if it can absorb moisture
I use the ones with the springs for my cowboy boots but I remove the springs so my boot shapers can fit it.
Quick question, do you travel with shoe trees ? I’m traveling with common projects and some apc Chelsea boots wondered if you travel with them ?
Great information 🙏🙏
Glad you found it helpful!
Very informative 👏
Thank you, Marisela!
Great video! Would you recommend to get a pair of dedicated boot shoe-trees, for higher ankle boots for men? Or are normal low shoe-trees just fine?
Get dedicated cedar boot trees in a similar style especially if the sides of the boots aren't too strong and might crease up.
Hey, I was wondering if a shoe tree is better to be too big or too small. I'm concerned one of my shoe trees might be too big for my common projects because of the narrow toe. Thanks!
If you ask me which one can actually cause damage, I'd say too big. You want just the right amount of tension. Worst case for a pair of small show trees is they won't provide enough support but can still remove odor and keep your shoes dry.
Great video and I like your accent!
haha I appreciate it!
This channel is so underrated! Subbed to you so you can get to the 1K quicker!
That's so kind of you! Much appreciated!
Great detailed video but my main question is what kind of shoes are those ?
This video helped me a lot. You deserve my subscription.
Question: How long should shoe tree stay in my shoes? Or should i just leave them inside if I'm not wearing my shoes?
It means a lot to hear that! With a proper pair of shoe trees (size and style), you can leave them inside your shoes when not wearing them.
Great video! Have you noticed any damage resulting from the second set of shoe trees? I have a set of very similar shoe trees which I've been using on an old pair of CPs, and I've noticed over time that the heel tab of the shoe has severely weakened in the middle and is actually beginning to tear. Whether this is the result of the shoe trees being too narrow, or if it's just from years of wear and tear (literally), I don't know.
I haven't seen any damage caused by the second pair. Do you think you got the right size of the shoe trees? I think it might be a combination of reasons why you start to see damage to your CPs now - The heel part is too narrow with too much force can definitely cause towards your shoes.
@@theaestheticminimalist I purchased the shoe trees from a local shop and to my understanding, they were a one-size-fits-all. The pressure applied to the heel of the shoe is pretty strong - I kind of have to force it forward in order to remove it. I wasn't sure if this was to be expected because they're the only set of shoe trees I own. I'm pretty convinced years of wear has worn down the heel tab, and the shoe trees have only sped up the process. Needless to say I have definitely stopped using these shoe trees on my CPs and have now devoted them to my less expensive pairs.
Hey man love this! Just bougt my second pair of common projects and planning to buy the first shoe tree mentioned here. What size of shoe tree should i get from S M or L? Im a size 42/US 9 for common projects. Thanks
You should probably get M.
Hi I have a double monk strap size 39 is it ok for me to buy a size 38 Divided toe Cedar Shoe tree because it's like 3 times cheaper than the size 39-40 version.
Or it's really recommend to buy the 39-40?
Go for it. Since it's 3 times cheaper. Usually the recommended size will fill stretch the shoes more, so 38 should theoretically still fill up your shoes but less stretch.
Will this help prevent creased from shoes?? Should I get a plastic shoe tree or shoe tree 🌳??thank you
It won't help to avoid creases completely, but using a shoe tree helps dramatically. I'd never get plastic shoe trees unless it's for travel.
Thank You for going into such detail on the shoes trees. I’m going to buy my first pair now. By the way, what brand are your grey shoes??
Glad to hear! They are Achilles Low sneakers from Common Projects.
Ok, thanks!
When I go to buy the first pair, when I go to select the size it has small, medium, large and extra large. Which one should I choose for a size 46Eu/12us? Great video btw
Yeah, their size chart isn't that useful. My guess is extra large, but I'm not 100% sure. I got mine together with the shoe I had them made. So I didn't need to pick it our myself. What really matters is that style and you can find the same style on Amazon as well. Such as these ones amzn.to/3dyvY5K
I'm looking for shoe trees for my nike sneakers. Would you recommend the first pair of shoe trees? What are your thoughts?
Can't go wrong with the first pair.
I just ordered type 1 and type 5 from Cedar Elements. Looks like I picked the most effective types. Would you say these will work for boots too? Or would a separate boot tree be better (for boots going over the ankle but not that high).
Would be better if you get boot tree as they provide support to the ankle and keep the boot in shape.
I have a question, when being storedong term do shoe trees have to stay in? Or could it he substituted with plastic shoe trees and the like since it doesnt have to wick any moisture and just hold the shape of the shoe?
Technically you don't need shoetrees for a brand new pair of shoes. Some brand put paper inserts to keep the shoes in shape during shipping. However, if you live somewhere humid, putting wood trees in even new shoes that you don't wear is not a bad idea.
@@theaestheticminimalist thank you for the reply!!! I own a couple of high end leather shoes and only have 1 shoe tree and I just thought of inserting these and rotating them when it rains or turns too humid
what shoe tree do you recommend for high end shoes like christian louboutin or santoni?
Definitely the first style. Best support and flexibility all around.
Do you need shoe trees for chelsea boots? I just got some CP chelsea boots and was curious whether I should get some
I'd say yes. There are shoe trees made for boots.
The Aesthetic Minimalist thanks a lot! Much appreciated
I wonder what you think of the Fresh Flow shoe tree. I am sure you won't like the lack of heal support, but since your channel is call minimalist, it is more on brand.
What size did you get from Andres Sendra?
If I remember correctly, it should be Large with Andres Sendra. I wear US10.5
I would of gotten the Stan smiths recon over the cp shoes
Amazing video! Which shoe tree would you recommend for Nike dunks?
Thanks for the kind words! 2nd or 5th under the description should both work fine. If the in sole is also full leather, use the 1st one.
@@theaestheticminimalist thank you so much! I think I might just end up getting the first ones!
@@BryanUSG You can't go wrong with the first one
Do the Andres Sendra shoe trees work for jordans and airforces?
Yes, for low tops
which one would you suggest for jordan 1s?
you'll never go wrong with the first pair
I wish I had purchased shoe trees a long time ago. My common projects have creases in them and look nothing like yours.
Having creases is unavoidable, but there are ways to slow it down for sure
Those plastic ones have the advantage of air circulation for the insoles. Where they from?
There are wood shoes trees the same as the high quality ones shoe shops sell for 80 on eBay new for 20.
They are from Skolyx
@@theaestheticminimalist Thank you.
What's your second favorite shoe tree? Have you found any since this video that you like better?
I have some common projects and oliver cabell size 12. I'm using the woodlore full shoe tree design in XL but I when they are in both shoes I can see the shoe tree pushing out the sides and see a visible line from the shoe tree? Do you think thats bad / I should get the smaller size for it? Great video btw.
What size of shoes do you wear? You might wanna downsize to L.
are these common projects cobalt grey?
I have no idea. They make so many different shades. Check the color code on the heel.
Too bad, shoe trees numbered above #1, 4, 5 and 6 are UNAVAILABLE. 😞 I especially like Andres Sendra's shoe tree and your link to the Amazon product, "Ollieroo Men's Shoe Trees Twin Tube Adjustable Red Cedar Wood Boots Trees US Size" is currently unavailable, and no idea when it will or if it will be available again. I guess COVID has choked the supply lines, perhaps? Thanks for making this video-it's instructive.
Thank you for bringing it to my attention. It's been a while since I made this video - might be time to update the product links.
If my shoe size is 9.5 what size of shoe tree should I get?
9-10
if the leather in good quality it will crease in a way that doesn't actually look that bad
What’s the name of the shoe used in the video?
Common Projects
Hey, if discolour, how can i do?
Did you mean the shoe trees are discolored?
For the first type of show trees, what are the sizes
Andres Sandra doesn't have the best description for their shoe tree sizes, my guess is Small is 7-8.5, Medium is 9-10.5, Large is 11-12.5, and X-Large is 13-14. You should check with them before purchasing. Or, I recommend you getting the same style shoe trees from Amazon via the link I provided.
@@theaestheticminimalist Thank you
Which one is the best ?
Speaking from my personal experience, the first pair.
404 link error for the Andre Sendra shoe tree. But you can still find it! Sub'd!
They must have updated their product url. Thanks for letting me know!
@@theaestheticminimalist You're welcome! Thank you for the content!
I'ts great Video
Thanks!
1:18 Cedar is the best wood.
3:00 Those are travel shoe trees, you didn't mention that. Light weight and cedar toes. The reason they damaged your shoes is because the ones you have are too large. Looks like an XL and you probably need a M for your small feet. Good video otherwise. Also, the knob on the twin tube split toes makes it easy to polish shoes...
I wouldn't use those for travel. There are travel shoe trees as shown in the video. My small feet? I wear US44. You must wear US50 to call my feet small.
Why is the term shoe tree being used for shoe shapers? I have a shoe tree, a one level plastic shelf with shaped rounded vertical projections that the front part of the shoe fits onto. Bought it for about $12 years ago, so convenient and better for shoes. Can't find one anywhere but they have overpriced shelves they are calling shoe trees. I can get a shelf anywhere,
I use cedar shoe trees with split toes in all my shoes and boots. Cedar shoe tree is better than its alternatives because it is strong enough to prevent your shoe leather from cracking. It is a good investment because the material is highly durable than its plastic counterpart. Cedar shoe trees are also readily available because they are the most preferred option.
For #4, you can push it forward before sliding the tree out. It just requires grip strength.
Damn $50-$100 for a shoe tree wut spends $600+ on common projects gets told should spend another $100 on a shoe tree 😂
You forgot lasted shoe trees
I wish America had better shoe trees, I'm tired of having to order from the UK or EU
Agreed.
Just shove newspaper into the shoes, far better than shoe trees
Definitely don't do that.
Its a shame these pig manufacturers charge such a rip off for these
Don't buy the fourth kind. I can't get them out of my shoes!
Tell me about it. Really frustrating
@@theaestheticminimalist My charwoman finally got them out using a new heavy shoehorn that I bought from the same company. I won't put myselft through that every time I use them. They're going back to the vendor!
@@williamcooke5627 I don't blame you. Not worth the struggle.
You speak the obvious, i dont even have to buy or own a single one of those shoe tree to know all the things you say. One can simply tell by looking at the shape and the look of those shoe trees smh. Nothing useful
The first one product link is not working anymore 🥲 do you know where can I buy those?
Amazon but not same brand but same style and really good quality
