ABSTRACT:
A boot tree for straightening the upper portions of boots extending from the inner heel portion to the tug straps of said boots. The boot tree comprises two elongated hollow tubes with a coil spring disposed therein, wherein the second elongated tube is rotated with respect to the first elongated tube to lengthen or shorten the boot tree. A handle, disposed on the upper portion of the boot tree with downwardly extending hooks on either side, is pushed down and inserted into the tug straps so that when the handle is released, the tension from the coil spring lifts the upper portions of the boots to a straightened position.
