I have very long narrow feet so I always have to make my shoes smaller. I do it by first adding arched insoles (available in foot care section at Walmart). Then, I use heel cushions, which are thick spongy adhesive backed pads that you place on the underside of the tongue and inside the back of the heel. They are usually found in the section that has the shoe polish and laces. If you still need them smaller, you can use what is called moleskin. You usually use it directly on your feet to protect corns, etc, but I found that you can use the adhesive kind just like the heel cushions - but you can cut them to size and place them where needed inside the shoes.
Good luck!

Do you mean make a shoe smaller because you have smaller feet or you want to make your feet smaller?
The first, I don't know because I never had to make a shoe smaller...
The 2nd, no. My feet are size 16, and I still can't shrink them.

I continually have the same problem because my feet are 4 1/2 but women's shoes start at 5. I sometimes put insoles in the bottom. Dr. Scholls makes some inexpensive ones.

Scratch out the size that's stamped on the shoe. Get a sharpie and write in a smaller size. :-)

You could do like in the original Cinderella story where the two ugly stepsisters cut off different parts of their feet! One cut off her big toe and the other one her heel.
